Player Watch Welcome to Hawthorn pick 13: Will Day 2023 PCM!

[satan1]

Maybe he’s been carrying a shoulder injury? It’s been strapped, came off early in previous game and he’s been down on stats recently too.

Maybe, but opposite shoulder was taped I believe.

 

[jenniferHAWKinS]

Complex shoulder injury?

 

[The Big Dipper]

Come on dude with your user name being The Big Dipper surely you would know that a broken rib or a broken clavicle can cause injury to internal organs

Rib yes, clavicle no I wasn't aware...

 

[Changa10]

Just reported as a partially dislocated shoulder on news down here. No real timeframe given on the news though.

Yes. Mitchell is on Afl 360 now.

The first surgeon has said it won't require surgery, 2nd surgeon tomorrow.

Will come down to pain management

Kind've feel like our season is on a knives edge

I actually wonder if rugby style shoulder pads would be of any use in this circumstance, provided he can play in a few weeks?

“If you have a joint dislocation, your doctor may try to manipulate (move) the clavicle back into place without making an incision in the skin (see photo below). This procedure is called a closed reduction. A closed reduction is usually performed in the operating room.”

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Dr. Google suggests a 6 week recovery for a dislocated collarbone. Season done it seems. At least it wasn't a break.

 

[threesixpio]

Hmm. This is a big fat “it depends” article:

Dislocated Collarbone | Clavicle Treatment | Shoulder Surgeon Colorado

Orthopedic Shoulder Surgeon, Dr. Peter J. Millett, is a Vail, Colorado expert on treating dislocated collarbones. A dislocated clavicle is often caused by a traumatic fall, sports injury or accident.

When folks say a partial dislocation of the collarbone, I think they means a subluxation of the sternoclavicular joint. That's a pretty rare injury. Grade I are sprains, ligament OK, Grade II are subluxations (tearing of sternoclavicular ligaments; costoclavicular ligaments intact), I'm guessing that's what Will has and the worst are Grade III, a dislocation (tearing of all ligaments). Sprains you rest for a couple of weeks and dislocations in a top sportsman you would probably pin and get then back in a few weeks. Not sure about Grade II.

Yep my Dr Google saying the same thing

So should be right for the Grand final ? (Joke)

 

[Ned Ryerson]

We have a few pspters who know some medical stuff - can anyone enlighten us? sven_inc?

He's got 3 weeks before the elimination final, there's reasonable chance he will be right. Remember they do things to top sportsman <Queue ominous music> that they don't do to us normal folks. I looked after a motorbike racer who fell off in practice for the Australian motorcycle Grand Prix, they pinned his collarbone that night and was back at practice 48 hours later and competed 72 hours later. Racing bikes is pretty tough on the shoulder girdle.

 

[The hands of stone]

If it doesn't need surgery he possible is good to go week 1 of finals . It'll be pain management .
Sam I thought was fairly positive on 360.

Specialist 1 has said no surgery required
Specialist 2 tomorrow

‘Partially’ is the key word here. Could be a race against time.

 

[Ned Ryerson]

So Tyreek Hill did a similar injury in the NFL (preliminary Google I couldn’t find an AFL/NRL player with similar) and was out 4 weeks. Given if we beat Norf it’ll be 3 weeks until an elimination final overall that’s not the worst news.

 

[Billyc]

3 weeks until an elimination final. Might be a case of jabbing for pain relief during finals.

 

[I got the outside word]

Kind've feel like our season is on a knives edge

Has been for most of the year!

 

[flamin_heck]

I asked the old man who’s a GP (not a sports doctor mind you) and he replied with:
‘Claviculo-sternal joint.
Where your clavicle joins the ‘breast bone’.
Not nearly as mobile as the acromio clavicular joint. Sounds much less worrisome to me, but depends, of course on the degree.’

cross our fingers and toes.

 

[CHUBBSS]

Cometh the moment, barring no new information there will be zero chance Day isn’t out there. To courageous for his own good.

Shades of hodge about this… Day on the outside letting Newcombe and Nash go to work will worry any side

 

[HeHateMe]

Nerve can also be pretty touchy around there. I pinched a nerve around my collarbone playing footy, was really uncomfortable for a few weeks couldn't move my arm in certain positions. Mine was pretty minor though only missed 2 weeks once the swelling went down the pain went.

Not to sure if something like that is also happening to Will but when I saw him run off and had to hold is arm in a certain way/place it reminded me of it.
