Just about his best game for the season and he may be done for the year.

Let's hope it's just concussion and he returns for the Saints game, but might find it hard to get back in with Waite, Jamo, Russell in the mix.

Concussion?? :P

Apparently Ratten has just said at the press conference that he popped a vessel, which is what I was suspecting if it wasn't a cheek bone fracture. He'll be right.

Yup. Concussion very unlikely. Cheekbone the biggest worry.

Bret Thornton has been cleared of any facial fractures with scans showing he has soft tissue bruising only. He will fly back to Melbourne with the team tonight.

Looks like T-Bird will be alright = Brilliant!!
If you see the incident, it is only the Freo players hand that hits him, not a full body-to-face annihilation
