Brody Mihocek, a forward for Melbourne and former Collingwood premiership player, was taken to the hospital after suffering a potentially serious neck injury during a match against Collingwood at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). The injury occurred in the second quarter when Mihocek was tackled awkwardly by Billy Frampton, resulting in him landing head-first on the ground. The match was halted for over eight minutes as medical personnel attended to him, with the crowd of 88,015 watching in silence. Mihocek was eventually seen moving his legs and arms while being carried off in a neck brace. The AFL Match Review Officer is expected to review the tackle for its dangerous nature. Earlier in the game, both teams paid tribute to former Melbourne coach Neale Daniher, who recently passed away from Motor Neurone Disease. Meanwhile, Kozzie Pickett, who performed well in the first half, is under scrutiny for two incidents, including a trip on Braydon Maynard, who later dislocated his shoulder again during the match.
