West was rushed to Sutherland Hospital following the match and has since been transferred to St George Public Hospital. He was initially listed as critical but has now been transferred to the HDU section of the Hospital.
West will be monitored closely in the next 10-14 days in hospital and the Wollongong Football Club and our supporters are wishing Michael a speedy recovery.
For West it is a frustrating final few months of football after recently returning from a leg injury suffered after a tackle that saw the offending player red carded.
