Rd 9: Pre Game Prognostications: Carlton vs North Melbourne

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
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

B: Michael Firrito, Robbie Tarrant, Luke McDonald.
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.
Int: Trent Dumont, Aaron Mullett, Robin Nahas, Farren Ray.

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.
F: Andrejs Everitt, Sam Rowe, Ed Curnow.
Foll: Daniel Gorringe, Bryce Gibbs, Marc Murphy.
Int: Kade Simpson, Sam Kerridge, Andrew Walker, Liam Sumner.

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.

We have them well covered in the midfield.

Rowe to kick 8.  :o :o

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..

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. :Smile
