Its a good idea to consider Trengrove for Casboult

Stevo has tweeted that Jong has a low-range syndesmosis injury and is likely to be on the sidelines for a few weeks... the poor guy can't take a trick!

Massive heart to play out the game and give us the extra rotation. Feel for the guy.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

The way Jong went back with the flight was brave as you could ask for, just unlucky to get nailed as the NM kid landed.

What's with all the syndesmosis injuries in the last few weeks across the league? I don't think I had ever heard of it before Libba famously suffered the injury late in the 2016 season.

So what we used to know as a sprained ankle.

High ankle sprain - it's not your typical sprained ankle.

I know.
But we only had ankle sprains in my playing days. Syndesmosis seems to be a recent diagnosis that we never heard of until the last 5 years or so.

You just knew it wasn't good the moment he landed (fell over) back into that aerial contest. Kudos for returning to the ground while it was still warm to help with our rotations.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

I had a feeling it wasn't great for him, and that he was probably jabbed up when he went down to the rooms.
Pretty sure the terminology has just been updated to reflect what the actual injury is, whereas suggesting an ankle injury was good enough in the past. Journalists and the broader footy media are so thorough and well researched now that they will always make sure to get aspects of stories as close to bang on as they possibly can...…….

There is a profile element in every MRO decision.
He did sling and the North player had a cut above the eye from hitting his head on the ground.
I can't see where we really have anything to challenge.

If Jong does not recover then Butler and La Young
I like the reference. I didn't even think of that. We were the easybeats the first 2 rounds as well & i do have Friday on my mind already!

Ironically it's how the AFL should be encouraging tackles. Arms not pinned, player free to keep the ball moving, and given the opportunity to protect himself. Player can choose to hang onto the ball for longer to find the perfect option, but risks own health and a holding the ball or incorrect disposal free kick if they choose to do so.
Now of course, given the logic in that, the AFL will continue to shoot itself in the foot.
