Distressing scenes for Cats ruck as Swans progress to maiden preliminary final
Geelong Cats ruck Piper Dunlop has been stretchered from the field on a motorised cart in concerning scenes during her side's AFLW semifinal clash with the Sydney Swans.
Dunlop went down after a head clash with Sydney's Tanya Kennedy during the third quarter at Kardinia Park.
She initially returned to her feet before becoming unsteady and falling on the edge of the centre circle, caught by Sydney's Lexi Hamilton before trainers sprinted onto the ground to attend to her.
The game was stopped for nine minutes as medical staff gathered on the field, Dunlop eventually leaving the field on the motorised cart.
The Swans went on to win by 3 points to qualify for their first-ever preliminary final.
