Cody Head Knock

[jeemak]

No one has said that he had concussion at any time and given the dogs history with concussion I'm comfortable trusting our medicos if they say it wasn't concussion

I don't care. If you take a player off due to a head knock you're taking him off for concussion, unless there's a skull fracture/ skin piercing or something to do with vision.

Let's just cut the BS with head knocks.

Beveridge pretty much said Weightman won’t be playing. Hopefully he misspoke

Well, he said earlier in the week there’d be one forced change for the Semi and there wasn’t.

And we had 2 late changes for the elimination final.

We prob should just ignore Bevo’s comments about selection now. He’s in it to win it and is happy to throw the opposition off the scent.

Cody and Bont both will play, no doubt.

I've hit my sources re the Bont.

I'm worried.

I'm worried.

If it's a knock from behind the knee (which Bevo said it was) it's different than a front on knock for a PCL, as the Patella area and natural flex of the joint provides some protection.

So what does that mean?

Impact injury, sore but will play. Structurally ok.

OK i just hear knee.

[bulldogtragic]

OK i just hear knee.

PCL or ACL? You hear.

[Grantysghost]

Ok sorry to be clear I have no news at all, i've reached out but heard nothing. Sorry I'm probably projecting.

I'm not yet sufficiently liquored up yet to work this out.. I'll come back to this once I've polished off the first bottle.

[MrMahatma]

Bruising. Hurts your power immediately but will be over it in 48hrs.

This is in no way fact based and 100% hope based.

Plus I missed my train cause I’m too busy reading about this awesome win and hoping Bont is ok!

[FrediKanoute]

So, how exactly does a "head knock" not be concussion and yet still require the player to be subbed out? I get we're trying to do everything we can to have everyone available but I really hope we're not covering up concussion.

I think we a re splitting hairs. Cody is a gun, but he is a kid and if he has had a head injury we should be cautious. We don't want a Picken in 10 years time.

Should Adams get done for the hit?

Yep. Gardner got sighted for less last week. Plus there’s head high contact that put they player out.
