Just saw Elliott Yeo lose his teeth in Saturdays game. Brutal!

Just hate seeing that kind of injury. Wonder what the damage would have been had he had his mouth guard in.

Always amazes me when players are taking a set shot at goal and they take out the mouth guard and put in their sock or shorts. What is that about ? Does having the mouth guard in put you off ??

The boys were talking about on 360 and apparently he had his mouthguard in his sock at the time.
Every player takes their mouthguard out when they take set shots on goal - must just be a comfort thing.

Might pay for him to put it back in his gob next time.

Mouthguard out helps you breathe and catch your breath easier...

Hadn't thought of that JK. That makes sense. Would be easy to forget to put the guard back in after the shot I would imagine.

Not if you get the man on the mark to hold it for you...

Haha, I'd like to see that

Even Razor Ray would hold it for them wouldn't he....

It's a contact sport. For now anyway, so this sort of thing is going to happen.

I know it is an outcome of a contact sport but that kind of injury , when you see a blokes teeth flying out of his mouth , always makes me wince.

Bit like some of the horrific leg breaks that you see , I just find the vision painful to watch.

Hmmm, would you trust him with it though? Where's he going to put it while he stands and waves his arms about? You'll go to get it back and he'll pull it out of his jocks or something. "There you go mate - safe and sound!"

I think the $70K dentist cost is a lifetime cost resulting from the tooth-knock-out-age. I heard Terry Wallace on the radio this morning saying he is still forking out money on dental work resulting from stuff that happened in the 80s. I guess there must be ongoing maintenance or something for Yeo - can't imagine the initial cost would be that much.

As long its the front of the jocks and not the back of them.....

Caro loses credibility every time she talks and writes about women in football. Switches to agenda mode and plays the sexism card. Meh.

Couldn't agree more. No such thing as sexism.

Yeah, clumsy roundhouse attempt to spoil......



Spoil his face that is.....

Thank god we use Footy as an analogy of society.

Next week, indigenous week...........and I just keep on learning.

Did Carlton just get some kudos on the telly?

I thought maybe I'd accidentally ingested some LSD.

Is anyone else thinking of Jason Lee in Mallrats?

The ol' stink-palm.

 

[SBYM]

Wayne Carey's eyebrows are kinda scary.

 

[Dramoth]

apparently his dentists bill is expected to exceed $70,000

Did they end up finding his teeth?

 

[SBYM]

Ahhh Mitch…you're a legend.

Least favourite commentator?

BT, can't stand him.

I guess you didn't see the footage of Caro going off the deep end after Lloyd enquired about Richmond's new President.

 

[etsal1]

Curnow hasn't played since round 5 and is still 3rd for tackles for us.

Not sure what to make of that.
