I remember hearing that people with diabetes can get concussion easier? I don't know how it works but Fitzpatrick has diabetes and he's having issues with concussion too.

Meanwhile Weideman kicked 5 in the first half in the VFL :getin:

I've heard that as well, but from the research I've done (google and quickly searching academic databases) it looks like a myth. The only thing I could find that made that claim was a clearly bullshit health guru webpage. I'm not a doctor though. Either way concussions are poo poo.

At least one of his concussions last year was just the club being super cautious when he got a slight head knock after being concussed a few weeks earlier.

Brayshaws have been much more severe from what I have seen and has had ongoing issues with the effects days and weeks after. McCartin keeps on getting these stupid mild ones.

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

I know nothing about concussions, but isn't repeated minor head trauma just as bad, if not worse than one or two major ones?

not as bad as multiple major ones though, which is what Brayshaw has had.

I remember listening to a lecture from a psychologist who works with athletes who have suffered concussions and he brought up an interesting point about how helmets can sometimes be counter-productive. Being that when an athlete is wearing a helmet they can feel they are more protected than they actually are and often go in harder and more recklessly than they would without wearing it even though they know why they're wearing it. Also that they can be a target for other players who see the helmet and assume they're more protected than they are and the other players will go harder.
