Harry Cunningham of the Swans

Sydney’s recent recruit, Taylor Adams, is unlikely to make a return from a knee injury in time for the upcoming match against Richmond. Meanwhile, his teammate Harry Cunningham, who suffered a concussion, is showing positive signs of recovery.

Coach John Longmire provided an update, mentioning Cunningham’s excellent progress following the incident where he was knocked out due to a controversial high bump by Essendon’s Peter Wright. Longmire stated that Cunningham’s spirits were high and he was feeling good about himself, with his condition improving day by day.

However, Cunningham will adhere to the AFL’s concussion guidelines and will not participate in the upcoming match against Richmond, with the possibility of missing another match depending on his recovery.

Regarding Adams, who sustained a knee injury during the pre-season against Brisbane, Longmire expressed doubts about his readiness to play, suggesting that Adams would need more training to regain confidence in his condition.

Taylor Adams

Adams suffered a medial ligament tear after a tackle from Brisbane’s Cam Rayner and was initially ruled out for three to four weeks.

With recent incidents highlighting the importance of player safety, particularly regarding concussions, the AFL has taken strict measures. St. Kilda’s Jimmy Webster received a seven-match suspension for a pre-season bump on North Melbourne’s Jy Simpkin.

Longmire emphasized the priority of player welfare in such situations, stating that caring for the player’s health and well-being is paramount for the coaching staff.

Peter Wright faced consequences for his high bump on Cunningham, receiving a four-match ban at the AFL Tribunal. Wright pleaded guilty to the charge of careless conduct, severe impact, and high contact, acknowledging the unacceptable nature of such contests.

In response to the tribunal’s decision, Wright reiterated the importance of prioritizing player safety, emphasizing the need to put players’ care first and foremost in such situations.
