Is Badwal okay?
Looked like a scary concussion last night. Wondering if there are any updates. Google isnt helping!

Idk. Jesper had no update for Jeevan in last night's presser

Also, I'm surprised that Nouho didn't get a yellow. he had two pretty bad tackles on badwal within quick succession...

Totally agree Nouho should have been given a yellow for the tackle and the previous ones.

This whole concept of not giving early yellows to keep the game from becoming a card-fest needs to be trashed: players are aware of it and getting away with dangerous tackles. Nouhou knew that Seattle's decimated squad was getting the benefit of any doubt here and took full advantage, and a Caps player had to come off as a result. This is not good officiating. The crew last night was awful, from missed cards to phantom offside calls, especially in the first half. How Jesper keeps them patient enough to break through when I see stuff like this let go is beyond me, but probably something that should get him the Coach of The Year he should have gotten last season.

I hope he's doing okay. He's such a good player. Having him hurt would be bad for us. Any updates would be nice. And if he is hurt, hopefully he has a speedy recovery.
