It's concerning that while it was a heavy hit, it didn't look like one that should leave you concussed and unable to continue. It seems like he is especially prone now

Yep.. didn't see any head contact in it. He remains a list liability. Has trade value now though.

Agree didn't look like a head clash. Very injury prone in more ways than one.

Very concerning he needs to go to hospital after hits like that.

Another concussion any time soon and he needs to think about retirement, no joke

It's a worry for him. I would be surprised if they sit him for the rest of the year. Has had a few now. Can't believe I'd ever say this but we missed his run tonight

Ben Sinclair.. played 4 weeks of good footy this year.. just injured himself in a really stupid way in the first 15 minutes of a big game.. thought he'd show how hard at it he is and plow into a Norf player really hard.. not to tackle.. not to win the ball.. just to plow in and show everyone how hard and enthusiastic he is. Result.. another concussion and we are down a player within the first 15 minutes. This act sums up his career... sums up his value to the team and the Collingwood football club.

Absolutely shithouse of a post. Not surprising though, your taking it to a new level this year.
Gutless!!!!!!!
 
It's a real shame. Always been a fan. But needs to consider life after football now.
 
Just stop that nonsense and let's hope the kid is OK. Can't say he didn't gave it all, whatever way he did it
 
Pray for Benny. He's had a good month and missing him tonight hurt us a bit.
 
Didn't even look like the head got a knock. Hope he is ok. If he is getting a concussion from shoulder contact he needs to retire forfor his own good.

Absolutely agree.

For a player with a history of concussions to suffer such an innocuous brain injury requiring hospitalisation is terrifying and retirement should be looked at as ensuring quality of life post football rather than early career ending (similar to Caracalla)

All the best to the lad I genuinely hope he recovers and can stay healthy!

Wont waste anymore of my time on you. You know what irony means right? Calling me a keyboard hero after you bagging one of our best players over last month for putting his body on the line. Weak as piss!!!

You didn't have to waste any time on me in the first place bud.. I don't rate your opinion or want to hear it so why'd you bother? But for what it's worth... He got himself injured AGAIN for no reason in the first 15 minutes. He attacked the man, not tackling, not getting the ball and knocked himself out in the first 15 minutes and we play the rest of the match with a man down. He is serially injured and a liability on our list. If he got injured laying a tackle or doing something useful for the team then you might have a point. Another year.. and Sinclair will spend half of it in the sick bay like he does every other year. He's not that good.. and this is exactly what makes him a list liability. Good luck having a settled back 6 with him in the best 22!

You're talking as though he intentionally got himself concussed. Don't be ridiculous.

Your post was shithouse mate. I hope that was just your frustration because it did you no credit at all.

Take a rest mate. I think you really need a lie down and think about stuff.
 
How many concussions has ben had? Isnt it after a certain amount you are forced to retired?

I really liked bens past month, but 95 percent of the afl wouldnt of been concussed from that hit..
