Come to think of it, Butters did cop a heavy hit against Freo inside our forward 50 late in that game. Stayed hunched over for quite a while.
Because he was injured early in the game or even against freo 2 weeks prior…Let's not allow the injury to cloud the fact that he was playing another below par final before getting subbed out.

yeah 100% correct, the whole bloody ribcage moves upwards and downwards as we inhale and exhale, when playing footy which is highly aerobic it would be very uncomfortable.Rib injuries suck. Every time you breathe they hurt. If it's an intercostal muscle that's playing up he's going to be in a lot of discomfort for a few weeks until one day he wakes up and it doesn't hurt any more.
Could be a bruised bone, which really hurts and can't be jabbedif there is no break or crack in the ribs and it is just that it is sore can't they just jab it up.
This is what gets me, if we knew he was sore why not start him forward and play Horne Francis more mid?If nothing is broken Jab him up and stick him in a forward pocket, even at 50 percent he's more dangerous then mcentee.
Interesting, thanks for clearing everything up, i was curious as to why he needed more scans and that.I have seen plenty of cases where my patients have cracked ribs but they could not be seen on X-ray. Better off having a dexa scan which would show increased signals of bone uptake which is a sign of a fracture.
The Butters injury appears fairly obvious that it occurred at the end of the Freo game. My gripe with this is why wasn't he even listed on the injury report? Not only has the Club mismanaged an injury (AGAIN), there are serious issues with not reporting an injured player considering the amount of money that is waged with the various betting companies.
In this instance the bookies won't mind because they would have cleaned up given Geelong won - but if the shoe was on the other foot they'd be rightly livid.

Weird comment given he's just been voted back to back bravest player in the league by his peers. Clearly played injured last night.Did they check if he had a heart while he was there?

his only played 3 finals whilst being good and being a midfielder.I'm half with you on that, but it's not the first final where Zac has shown very little. Fingers crossed for the future.

vs brisbourne has 29 and 8 tackles or something off the top of my head
vs gws had 25 and played pretty poor
low sample size.
Upon reflection, you're right. I withdraw and delete my post.Weird comment given he's just been voted back to back bravest player in the league by his peers. Clearly played injured last night.
