Paul Seedsman put on inactive list to open a mid-season draft pick, which mean his season is done
You'd think his career is on a knife edge, too
I don’t think it’s on a knife edge, he’s not costing us a list spot and he’s already contracted through 2023. I think whether he retires or not will be left entirely to him.
I don't think his career is on a knife edge at all. Sadly, his career is over.Paul Seedsman put on inactive list to open a mid-season draft pick, which mean his season is done

I just hope his health is alright in the end, that's the main thing.I don't think his career is on a knife edge at all. Sadly, his career is over.
This unfortunately might be right.I don't think his career is on a knife edge at all. Sadly, his career is over.
i meant in terms of his ability to get back on the field
6 months in and not even full training yet

just read this..
wow.. that’s completely ducked up.
its little wonder bad concussions end up destroying people‘s lives.
the poor lad has been putting up with migraines pretty much every day for 6 months now.
I get a migraine every few weeks that generally lasts two sometimes three days.. thankfully only occasionally it starts with a 30 minute aura and numbness in my hands and sometimes face (occular as Paul puts it).. sometimes my vision is shaky/weird for days after. most times it, as Seedsman has described, comes with bad nausea and dizziness.
had them since I was in my early teens. thanks to the old dear who genetically passed them down to me… and she had them worse than I ever have.
painkillers, unless its pretty much morphene (which just aint possible to take regularly), do sweet FA.
like I said i only get that every few weeks.. sometimes I’m lucky and I go a few months without one..but rarely.
I had one back in 2015 that effected me for two to three weeks.. probably shouldve gone to hospital but I was working FIFO at the time but I did have MRI scans later which found no issues.. ended up with severe anxiety and depression from it and, probably, the constant fear that another one like it could be just around the corner.
hearing Paul talk of the mental battle takes me straight back to that episode but again, 2-3 weeks it was, whereas he’s talking about 6 whole bloody months!!..
if I had to put up with that for an entire 6 months.. I reacon I’d probably just make the decision to end my life. The quality of that sort of life just isn’t worth it. It is just totally and utterly miserable. you do your best but you can barely function. Just talking to people makes you feel anxious and sick, bright light makes you want to vomit, noisy environments just completely duck with you. hell, even the small jolt of hitting a pothole in the road whilst in a car can be bloody painful.. all you feel like doing is hiding at home.
Its good to hear Seed is positive and does still hope for a return to footy in the future but I think he’s probably dreaming… he just needs to get his normal life back for now and eventually I think he’ll realise tacking on a couple of extra years of footy at this end of his career isn't at all worth the risk.. one more bad head knock could see the rest of his life end up a complete misery.
I was getting them really bad and often. Causing vomiting. Even was admitted to the emergency ward over night with a drip to get fluids into me. Next day after 2 weeks of ongoing pain it was gone. They suggested that my GP subscribe ongoing medication. I have since been on nightly endep. Havent had a migraine now in 3 years since ive been on it.I guess with Seed the 6 months followed a defined event which you’d hold hope would correct itself at some point. I started having them weekly out of nowhere at about 13. But they were a pretty mild version just with some blurred vision and would last a couple of hours. But they disappeared after only a few months from memory. Would be horrific if more severe and more regular, even mild versions are debilitating.
I don't get migraine headaches, but for several years have been having what I call visual migraines: no pain, but flashing lights before the eyes. What is curious is that they are always in the same pattern, a semi-circle ringed with flashing triangles. I'm curious to know if anyone has experienced this sort of thing. It seems to be brought on by long periods of screen use.I was getting them really bad and often. Causing vomiting.

I think what Seeds has is likely a different situation to your genetic migraines. If indeed his headaches or migraines were a result of the concussion, then there’s a good chance they will eventually get less and less over time. The majority of concussions should resolve in symptoms whereas your typical migraine cases might have it for lifelong.just read this..

In the case of Seeds, after reading the link, I think it’s likely he’s been pushing himself too hard, and the physical exertion and emotional strain he’s put into the rehab can re-trigger the migraines. He needs to chill and take it slowly, like any rehab process from a prolonged stint in the sidelines.

Not trying to argue, just making a general observation. Not all migraines are of the same magnitude or frequency, was my main point. If Seeds’ was severe and not improving, then I doubt he would be encouraged to keep training (and likely encouraged to retire this year).???… i never said mine and seeds situation was due to the same consequences..
although I have received a few sporting concussions (from footy, soccer, cricket and surfing) over the years.. which probably hasn't helped.
But a terrible migraine is a terrible migraine no matter what the bloody cause..
So everyone but Sloane & Seed should be available after the bye.Injury list as of Tuesday, June 7:
Patrick Parnell (corked thigh) test
Fischer McAsey (leg) test
Josh Rachele (corked thigh) test
Jordon Butts (concussion protocol)
Rory Sloane (knee) season
Paul Seedsman (concussion) season
Particularly without his sunglasses.
