more common than you'd think. I ruptured a lisfrance and broke 8 bones and stood at first slip the rest of the day and walked around for a week after. Eventually got an x-ray because it went black... Surgeon said it resembled soup.
Pain is a weird thing and some people just don't notice certain types of pain. Doesn't necessarily make you tougher either. Some things you simply don't notice.
Apparently it's trainable too. Physio asked me if I grew up ignoring pain as a hobby....
. Just one of those things. Tdks effort is still one of the gutsiest I've ever heard of. Bit like petracca coming back on the other week. Insane but not unheard of.

You aren’t wrong! My friend who I’ve mentioned countless times because he’s in the AFL system in the high performance department has so many anecdotes like thismore common than you'd think. I ruptured a lisfrance and broke 8 bones and stood at first slip the rest of the day and walked around for a week after. Eventually got an x-ray because it went black... Surgeon said it resembled soup.

He’s had blokes who’ve done ACL’s and played another quarter and then come off because they felt a weird sensation when moving laterally (I hope I’ve got that right and haven’t conflated some stories here) they get ran through the test and ruled out because they’ve done their ACL
The human body is fascinating

Yeah! Happens more than you think apparently, can even happen post game
Dear AFL
As you are probably aware, our club doctors were both downstairs in the rooms treating injured players at the time because you introduced a rule a few years ago prohibiting treatment on the ground if there are injections involved.
Ideally, we would have additional staff to deal with such matters - however, this has not been possible since you reduced the soft cap to clubs during the covid years without reinstating it - unlike your exhorbitant executive salaries.
GAGF,

Good clip/ coverage, thanks.
Interesting choice of words - Use of “accidentally” when ref Xerri stepping on TDK’s foot…. Is that the journo inserting that word ……. ?

5 pm? Oh man I’ve been sipping from the flask since 9 am …
Seems to be a bit later each week lately and I wouldn't be surprised if tonight is the latest of the year.
Will be interested if Doc gets a timeline after the recent coverage.

It is what it is and I did say around 5pm.
I'm not timekeeping when the injury update is released on Tuesdays.
Do we need a stop watch? When it hits, it hits
Release the injury update FFS
