Re: Rd 9: Pre Game Prognostications: Carlton vs North Melbourne - LP - 05-19-2016

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!
So let me get this straight, the 3 weeks he has already missed and the next 4 - 5 weeks doesn't add up to nearly two months? I'm stunned! :o
Are you able to shed any light on those questions I asked Jack earlier?
Given the lad was hospitalised for almost a week(5 days is the rumor) 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?
Maybe all these related posts can head to the Injury Thread.

The fact that Charlie has commenced light training suggests that he was at the milder end of the scale - but that's just speculation of course.
Perhaps he was hospitalised because he is an AFL footballer and it was the best path to a speedy recovery - but, again, that's speculation.
My son's specialist was very strict about not resuming contact training before time but he did recovery very quickly and had no long term issues. As I mentioned before, my weightlifting buddy was laid low for 12 months, as was my next door neighbour. In both cases, they contracted glandular fever in their 30s and that may be a factor.
I can't shed light on your questions - perhaps ask Dr Google

I get that but he's not even listed as an emergency, and from what I have seen thus far, Gorringe has been played more forward than Ruckman.
Sure it might be all about matchups and no obvious one for KJ, but Im surprised to see he wasnt even close.

I have not personally seen him play this year but there have been plenty of reports to indicate that KJ has yet to reach the standards required of him for senior selection.

He should be well and truly "firing a shot" by now. Something is not right.

Just took Rowe at 163s (yes 100 and 63) to kick 4 or more.
If he's gets ample supply we know he's a very decent kick. Go Sam, Go Blues!

If Gorringe just keeps up with Goldy, spoils him and generally makes his life difficult he would be making a good contribution - it's then up to our mids.

Same height, same weight give or take....let's hope our lad acquits himself well.
