    Looks like Ben King might have done his ACL in training.

    Wait...what? Not borderline flying by the looks of it.

    ESSENDON star Jake Stringer was on light duties as the Bombers stepped up their match simulation at Thursday's training session, with two train-on players impressing in their bid for a spot on the club's list.

    Stringer, who kicked 41 goals from 19 games last year, was on modified training as he deals with some groin soreness but is expected to be back into full training in coming days.

    Damn, that's a real shame. Hope he manages to avoid the worst.

    9 touches in the most important game of their year is chuckle worthy enough.

    ACL confirmed for Ben King unfortunately. Will be interesting to see if he stays on the Gold Coast or seeks a move back to Melbourne. His trade price may have just taken a hit. Nightmare for the Suns either way.

    Their most important player.

    It's a nightmare for the AF too,they really need the Suns to be half decent to grow the game in Qld.
    Then there's the Stewie Dew OOC factor as well.

    Lucky this isn't at Melbourne or Goodwin would be abusing the club doctor. Concussion can be nasty, hopefully he can recover.

    Paul Seedsman’s future in doubt as concussion issues linger

    The immediate playing future of Paul Seedsman remains in doubt after the star wingman continues to miss training sessions because of ongoing concussion issues.

    Seedsman, who finished third in Adelaide’s best and fairest count last year, suffered a concussion in a training drill prior to the Crows playing list going on their Christmas break.

    Two months on Seedsman is still unable to take part in any contact drills at Crows training.

    He has been restricted to running, and has been doing kicking drills in recent weeks, but has to wear sunglasses outside.

    The Crows have declined to comment on whether Seedsman will be available to play in February practice matches, whether he could return for Round 1 or even when he is set to return to full training.

    Adelaide has previously said it will approach Seedsman’s lingering concussion symptoms with caution.

    Associate Professor Alan Pearce, who is regarded as Australia’s pre-eminent concussion researcher, said the Crows needed to be careful with Seedsman since he was having issues for more than a month after getting the initial concussion.

    “So if it takes him half a season to recover then it takes him half a season to recover because it might extend his career for another two or three years,” Pearce told The Advertiser.

    “Rather than rushing him back and then all of a sudden he gets another brain injury or a musculoskeletal injury and he is back to square one.”

    Pearce said Seedsman would be “somewhere in what we call stage three” of a six stage return to play strategy – sport-specific exercise running and drills.

    “The fact that he hasn’t gotten into any contact training is a bit of a concern two months out (from the concussion),” Pearce said.

    “Because even with what we push for with a longer recovery time, even with 25 to 28 days he would then have started to do some more stuff where at nearly 60 days he is just doing some running and he needs to shade his eyes.

    “That he hasn’t done any contact training is a flag.”

    The Crows have an internal trial next Friday, and then start pre-season matches.

    Pearce said they can’t rush Seedsman back for either of these games.

    “He still has a number of stages to go in his return to play strategy,” he said.

    “The club would be skirting their responsibility to him if they brought him very quickly from that to pre-season games.”

    The AFL confirmed this week that they would continue with their minimum 12 day mandatory rest for any player who suffers concussion in the 2022 season.

    McKay out is massive for them, like our Naughton or Bont. Could definitely be a dry period for them now
    If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.
