Unless it was the omgviral tiktok ‘break your hip challenge,’ circumstances point towards no.

Hide his medical records?
LOL.
so when he can’t run at November training the club won’t do any investigation? The ■■■■, legit brick head.

I am not sure that is true, he broke his hip, not something that is easy to hide and not even Stephenson can expect the hospital to “hide” his records.

North Melbourne young gun Jaidyn Stephenson asked hospital staff not to notify the Kangaroos after he presented in a wheelchair following a drunken backyard bicycle accident.
Stephenson was taken by ambulance to Melbourne’s Epworth Hospital on Friday after attempting to perform a trick on his bike following drinks with housemates.
A source said Stephenson told staff at Melbourne’s Epworth Hospital that he hurt himself after he rode a bike down stairs.
It is claimed that he then begged staff, “Don’t send North my medical report”.
The Kangaroos were made aware of the incident on Friday night.
I know the media can be full of crap sometimes but it would be extremely questionable content to publish without some pretty solid information…

If he went public with just a medicare card I don’t think the hospital has any obligation to inform his employer, in fact they might be in trouble if they do because of privacy, especially if he asks them not to. However if he tries to use his private insurance which is probably paid for by the club, then the insurer will most likely be telling the club about it anyway. Pre-covid it would have just been Tom Browne hanging around the hospital entrance on a Friday night trying to spot AFL players going in.
I mean, sure what he did is stupid, but it’s far less stupid than some of his AFL playing peers who get behind the wheel of a car while intoxicated.

At least he was not breaking Covid restrictions.
Which would be a first
Reckon it is illegal for a hospital to disclose records to anyone if not a parent or guardian or police with a warrant.

Great for North and happy he’s coming though the other side, beating cancer. On field though… he’s a grub
1st BnF for Simpkin.
I have loved Simpkin since his draft year. Such a skillful, outside player that still goes in when he needs to. Overcome a broken leg in his draft year iirc.
…also a diehard dons supporter who wanted to get to us initially, get it done Dodoro.
