Geelong coach Chris Scott still struggles to watch the sickening on-field collision that resulted in Tom Lonergan being placed in an induced coma.Lonergan underwent emergency surgery and lost a kidney in 2006, when he went back with the flight of the ball and was crunched by Melbournes Brad Miller.Lonergan, who is using the 10-year anniversary of the incident to raise awareness for blood and organ donation, recovered and remains a vital cog in the Cats defence.Scott, renowned as being a hardman throughout his 215-game playing career, says the 32-year-olds courage is unparalleled.I hate looking at it (footage of Lonergan being hit), Scott told Fox Footy.It was pretty serious for Tom and for him to play the way he still does now ... hes been remarkable.Theres crazy courage but then theres courage when youve had the severe injury hes had. Its a different level.Whenever someone gets seriously hurt ... the running joke inside the Geelong footy club is at least youve got all your internal organs.Meanwhile, Scott forecast making up to four changes to the side that defeated Brisbane by 60 points.Jimmy Bartel, Josh Caddy, Daniel Menzel and Nakia Cockatoo are all set to return.Theyre all ins.
