Waiting till the swelling has dissipated is why there routinely is delay with orthopedic surgery.
It was a surprise to me, at the time I thought wow, Jack Martin has toughs. He bulldozed Cotch, he had plenty of momentum sure, but he did it. Cotch would have stuck it with most players I reckon.
I didnt like our chances this week anyway v the sooks - but with Cotch out, Lambert looking really sore (will he even play?), Edwards looking tired (Neil Balme's words on SEN on Friday interviewed by Dwayne Pipe) and Dusty wont be anywhere near his best, a lot of experienced midfielders down and out.
Yep if it is a small crack that is linear and it has been plated for reinforcement and expedites healing 2 weeks is not out of the question.
Good news then. He won't be needed against West Coast so can have two weeks off. Would like to see him at Carrara the week after for my own selfish reasons that I dont really want to see us get done by GC who are looking like a good team at home.
The clavicle (collarbone) is a long, thin, slightly curved bone that connects your arm to your body. It sits below your neck and is part of the front of your shoulder. It runs horizontally (from side to side). This bone connects your sternum in the middle of your ribcage to your shoulder blade (scapula)
Yes, Willo, but if it's a crack would you plate it? And if it's near the sternum, how?
Really? I thought Stack and Cumberland were much better than Aarts and were consistent the whole game. Cumberland was injured in the last though and has struggled with injuries this year.
Isnt it interesting how we all see a game differently Tigerlove.
I thought so too Jack. 10 min interview, interesting discussion from Balmey about the balance of playing the young blokes v the old champs - discusses Shane about 3.30 min in.

He also made this point on one of the recent Club podcasts. He speaks pretty openly and i expect this same sort of conversation will be part of the possible retirements discussion later in the year.I thought so too Jack. 10 min interview, interesting discussion from Balmey about the balance of playing the young blokes v the old champs - discusses Shane about 3.30 min in.
Neil Balme on Dwayne's World - Friday 17th June
Richmond Senior Club Advisor Neil Balme joins Dwayne off the back of Richmond's big win over Carlton at the MCG last night, discussing their management of Shane Edwards, antics of Shair Bolton, and injury to Noah Balta.
Rioli 2nd quarter no possies. Flying 1st quarter 9 disposals. A lot of games where he doesn't see a lot of the ball in quarters but his defensive pressure is enormous. He's only young, plenty of time. Noah, most time I see him he's quite impressive. And some undersell his defensive efforts, thought he was defensively great, had 6 tackles, most in the team. He's done a lot of things right, kicked plenty of goals and at some stage you have to at least give them a go, some players excel at the higher level.
