+ Some Carlscum player gone, Curnow I think, knee injury
Commentators, including a medical Dr, have drawn conclusions that all three injuries due to the condition of the ground. They are all saying the ground is very uneven. Lingy said the condition of the ground was having a material deterimental impact on the player ability to compete.
Amazingly, an NRL game was played on the same oval last night.
Was the AFL aware of the NRL game last night? Did the AFL investigate the condition of the oval today after last nights NRL game? Given that the AFL players are told where to perform their duties as an employee, the legal Standard of Care that the AFL owe to their neighbours at law (ie the players) is considerable and the issue of the condition of the ground, IMO, is of paramount importance in providing a work environment free of hazard and absolutely warrants the consideration of any reasonable prudent employer or principal.
The ground may have caused some injuries last night ( I doubt it though) but the important thing is that none were Essendon players so all is good. It's just a shame more carlscum players didn't go down...yes yes, I know, I'm a spiteful ■■■■■■■.

This I am reliably told with the surface is that for NRL games they drop temporary stands on the sidelines and the weight has farked the underground drainage.
