It seems we have maybe put C. Curnow on the LTI , and promoted Wood.

I reckon Wood may play if that's the case. Don't who he would replace though. :o

Not a bad team considering the  forced outs.

It states in the article that Wood was elevated for McKay.

Yes, Mckay was put on the LTI a while ago, but we never elevated anyone until now.

Crisis over. ;)

McKay was placed on LTI when he was first injured. Curnow is at the club on light duties but not sure when he will be fit again. Could be two weeks could be two months no one knows but is improving.

There is no way C.Curnow will be back within two months let alone two weeks. I'm not sure of the current thinking but years ago it was thought the worse thing a GF sufferer can do is over-exert themselves during recuperation. It can set them up for years of relapses. Gentle exercise used to be the call, long walks, gentle bike rides, aqua-aerobics, etc., etc..

Bollocks, infectious mononucleosis affects everyone differently, for some people its just like a cold they get over in a week or so, for some it can be debilitating for 12 months, and then everyone else is somewhere in between. The medicos at the club know how to manage it, after all it's not uncommon, and if they've decided he is right to start training again this week, which he did, then he shouldn't be too far away from playing

Agreed.

At one stage in high school i got tested for it because they thought i had it. Turned up negative.

Years later i got a blood test for something completely unrelated and they said, "oh, i can see you've had galandular fever in the past".
Now either the initial test gave false results (even so, never missed any school or anything) or i had such a mild version of it later on that i never knew i had it.

I had a friend who basically spent 12 months in bed from it though.

If they say Curnowfides is on light duties already, then i suspect he might be available in a couple of weeks as he obviously has had a mild version.

Jack you seem to be in the know, you must be able to answer some questions for me.

Given the lad was hospitalised for almost a week is that the low end, moderate or high end?

How long before contact sports can be resumed, I had heard/read it is up to four weeks after the spleen returns to it's original size?

Has it been reported which strain he has, aren't there two main variants, one relatively mild the other not so much?

Is there a relationship or link between Glandular Fever and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome?

While I had heard about Doch's Dad, I never knew about the eye and injury issues. Yet I reckon his first season was still a pretty good standard, despite all those problems he was carrying. No wonder he is flying now, I hope things keep looking up for him!

North Melbourne

HB: Nick Dal Santo, Scott D. Thompson, Shaun Atley.
C: Sam Gibson, Andrew Swallow, Jamie Macmillan.
HF: Brad McKenzie, Jarrad Waite, Brent Harvey.
F: Ben Brown, Drew Petrie, Lindsay Thomas.
Foll: Todd Goldstein, Ben Cunnington, Jack Ziebell.

Emg: Ryan Clarke, Majak Daw, Corey Wagner.

In: Michael Firrito, Trent Dumont, Farren Ray.

Out: Majak Daw (Omitted), Ben Jacobs (Foot), Mason Wood (Concussion)

Bit surprised they dropped Daw: I thought they'd go tall and stretch our defence more than it looks already to be stretched.

Carlton

B: Ciaran Byrne, Simon White, Jacob Weitering.
HB: Sam Docherty, Lachie Plowman, Zach Tuohy.
C: Jed Lamb, Patrick Cripps, Dennis Armfield.
HF: Dale Thomas, Liam Jones, Matthew Wright.

Emg: Nick Graham, Blaine Boekhorst, Cameron Wood.

In: Simon White, Jacob Weitering, Daniel Gorringe.

Out: Michael Jamison (Illness), Levi Casboult (Leg), Matthew Kreuzer (Knee)

A few surprises. I didn't see Gorringe as an option. Hope he is fit. Hope Weitering is fit.
As for Jamo, he can't take a trick!
Live Long and Prosper!

I have loved watching this courageous young man develop. Although I was aware of his dear father passing whilst he was on camp, didn't realise he'd had such health issues. How admirable that he's risen to these heights thus far.

I'm so excited to see Sam develop into a superstar of the game.

Another bollocks LP  ;)

My son was back playing Vic Championship basketball within 6 weeks.  He was under the care of a specialist who carefully monitored his recovery and gave him the all clear to train at full pace after 5 weeks.

Charlie Curnow is already doing light training so I'd expect him to start playing a quarter or two in the NBs within 4 or 5 weeks - provided there are no setbacks with his recovery.

It can be a bit of a lottery.  One of my weightlifting buddies was out of action for 12 months!

I wonder what's going on with Jaksch?


I thought he'd be ahead of gorringe based on recent weeks form.

Gorringe is ruck height and played as a ruckman before.

Don't know who I hate more, North Melb or Brad Scott?
I hope we win the free kick count just to piss him off. I wonder how many time C7 will show him throwing his hands in the air. ::)
