GWS Defender Concussed In The Opening Seconds Against Collingwood

Big head knock


13 May 2017

GWS defender Aidan Corr's day is over after copped a very heavy concussion in the first 30 seconds of the Giants’ game against Collingwood at Spotless Stadium today.

Corr courageously went back with the flight of the ball into a marking contest and ended up being tripped over by a falling Phil Davis as he took the mark.

His flipped over backwards and his head hard on the turf hard, appearing to be knocked unconscious.

Watch it here:

Corr was helped off the ground by trainers, but was able to walk unassisted to the race.

The 22-year-old Irishman unsurprisingly failed the concussion test and won't be able to take any further part.

The Giants trail Collingwood 2.2 (14) to 6.4 (40) at quarter time.
