There are serious concerns for Brisbane midfielder Jarrod Berry who suffered a dislocated shoulder during his team’s thumping win over Fremantle in Perth on Friday night.

The dislocated shoulder to the injury-cursed Berry was a major downer for the Lions, who belted the Dockers by 57-points and in the process secured their spot in the finals.

Berry’s left shoulder popped out when he was bowled over by Andrew Brayshaw in the final quarter, and it remains to be seen whether it will be a season-ending injury.

The 27-year-old was in immediate pain and was quickly subbed out of the game.

Berry has a history of injuries — and shoulder injuries in particular — but coach Chris Fagan had at least one positive take out of the latest blow.

“His other shoulder is the one he’s had operated on,” Fagan said after the game.

“So now the other one’s popped out ...

“I don’t know the full extent. Obviously, there’ll be scans and stuff like that.

“It didn’t look good.

“But sometimes they can find a way to strap them up and get them through the season and have an operation at the end of the year.”

“It’s not ideal. He’s been one of our better players this year, very reliable leader.

“So fingers crossed for him.”

New Corp journalist Jon Ralph called it a “diabolical for Jarrod Berry”.

“Not only given his injury history, but his importance to this side as a defensive midfielder.

“So it’s a shoulder dislocation. Certainly, Brayshaw did nothing wrong apart from just tipping him forward there.

“(But Berry) has had repeated shoulder surgeries all the way back through his draft year, and as recently as February last year.

“The only real option here is to try and strengthen it, which has limited success over the next three weeks.

“But those dislocations, they just reoccur so easily ... You only have to look at (Lions ruck) Oscar McInerney who (dislocated his shoulder in last year’s preliminary final but tried to keep playing) and then missed the grand finals.

“So that is a horrible, horrible injury (for Berry) and he will know that the road ahead is very full of pitfalls.”

Brisbane are already without dual Brownlow medallist Lachie Neale (calf), but he is expected to return for the first week of the finals.

However, it is a nervous wait for Berry and the Lions.

If he does return at some point during the spring, the Lions will be praying the shoulder can hold up to the rigour of finals footy.
