That's a concern for Ward.

 

[Hodgey 15]

That's a concern for Ward.

Ward may play this week. Boyd said they would access him this week to see if he's available to play on weekend. Seemed pretty positive.

Anyone aware of why Ned Long isn’t suiting up for box hill today? Is he out injured?

Probably went on a bender with Blanck and Wardy

You're confused with Ramsden.

Ahh FFS that was me trying to be funny at half time without thinking it through

Maybe covid?

Maybe keeping him fresh for the 6 day turn around to WA for a debut against Freo?

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Good news on Gunners. No serious injury.
The club will continue to assess him throughout this week after scans revealed some impingement on the outside of his ankle.

The injury is not related to his previous ankle injury.

However, the club has decided to take a conservative approach and he is expected to be available for selection after the bye.

[Wingnut19]

I swear our concussion protocols last 2/3 weeks longer than every other clubs.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

I swear our concussion protocols last 2/3 weeks longer than every other clubs.

Good.

 

[Wingnut19]

Good.

Yeah agree. Pretty sure you see most players missing the one week but ours seem at least 2-3.

 

[PT Bar None]

I guess that explains where Ned Long has been

 

[eldorado]

I swear our concussion protocols last 2/3 weeks longer than every other clubs.

It's about how fast each player progresses through them...Lynch is taking a while, Scrimshaw seems to be straight through, with the minimum 12 days.

 

[TylerDurden]

Thank God we took Ramsden for the longer term. We can't rely on Lynch at this point.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

 

[Bugs1977]

No reason to rush him back this week when we have the bye next week. Give the big fella an extended break for the fuzziness to settle.

 

[Lickmesocks]

I swear our concussion protocols last 2/3 weeks longer than every other clubs.

Yep Wardy has grown 5 inches and put on 10 kgs of muscle since he last played

 

[TylerDurden]

 

[Howe Amazing]

Tiger players have done a job on Day last year and now Ward

 

[burner1]

Not great news on Ward / lynch. It’s not like we are being conservative - they just haven’t passed concussion protocols yet. Hopefully just a one-off for Ward but hope we didn’t make a mistake picking a potentially concussion prone player so early.

 

[TheFourPillars]

How would we know that? And how would that be a mistake?

This is modern footy, and we're all better for it. We just need to get used to it.

I would assume many times in the past there have been players playing with concussion still lingering, so it was a hidden issue. Glad it's getting address and we have a club taking it seriously.

Did J. Lewis play the week after his big hit from Harbrow?

 

[Blackhawk42]

I've been knocked out badly once in my footy career.

This was 2010 when you could continue playing the same game. I came back out half way through the third quarter and tried to run backwards calling for the ball and instantly fell over my own feet.

The following week I went to take a chest mark from a sky ball and literally made zero contact with the Sherrin. It went straight through my arms.

2 weeks later at training a wet ball skidded through and hit me in the face. I bent down to pick it up and started falling backwards even though I was trying as hard as humanly possible to bend forwards.

These things are so unpredictable and can take time.

Ward might get another one later in his career and be good to go 12 days later.

Yeah he did and admitted it lingered for quite a while after

 

[H00t]

It’s little a bit concerning Ward is still suffering from concussion. Especially when he suffered for 7 weeks from a hit back in 2019.

Will be incredibly important for us going forward.
