Injury The OFFICIAL Injury Updates thread - 2 weeks

Unpopular opinion I think he should go back again. Last year he was able to hold the structure together in the backline and was a general this year after 3 games where he was playing undersized noble moved him. Honestly think he wasn't that bad last year down back

That is unpopular haha. I hated having to watch him try and handle dangerous opponents week in week out. He got caught out too often imo, but there is something to be said for having a leader back there, especially with Hall out. McKay seems pretty inanimate and LMac doesn't come across as a general either

An example from last year final game of season vs Adelaide ziebell missed and we had no defensive structure whatsoever they were all over the place. He might not be that good of a leader but he at least try's to position players that's why I think he should be back there

100% agree. He thrives down back. He got some confidence.

We had 13 inside 50s after quarter time. He is useless up forward

Xerri has been carrying a shoulder issue in recent weeks, with the club deciding he will undergo surgery next Monday.

So he's been carrying it for a few weeks, had to go down into the rooms last game, and we're putting him out for surgery at the same time CCJ is knocking on the door.

Food for thought:
TT back earlier than expected from internal bruising.
Hall hurting himself in two separate games, both times supposedly going into each game with an issue.
Zurharr reported as carrying a foot issue early in the year and then had to sit out midseason for it.

Less popular opinion. Play him in the middle.

This stuff just makes me angry and sad. Maybe they do pass all the tests each week and the estimate of doing themselves a serious injury is minimal. Maybe. But **** me we see this song and dance every year and I hate it so ****ing much. It makes me so bitter.

Not sure we’re unique; I think if you went around the comp, by this stage of the season, most are playing sore to some extent

I understand the frustration - we’re certainly not having much luck. On the other hand, if it was this time last year, it would be big TC back in, which wasn’t taking us forward, whereas at least now we’ve got another promising 23 year old in good nick to come in and see where his game it up to

There is a curse. Whether the club actively makes it worse or not I don't know, but make no mistake the curse exists.

 

[Horizons_00]

Our fitness and training standards have been called out multiple times. We’ve had bad luck including selecting injury prone players but it’s been a shitshow for years.

I don’t think he has the tank for that anymore

Ccj into afl means Edwards playing more ruck in vfl. This will be good for his development

True but I’d say monkhurst will be starting ruck

Yep open up a list spot and get rid of ol mate Polec

Add Comben to your list

Comben hasn't been reinjured this year.

he had a plate in his knee which was expected to be ok until the end of season but iy started causing him pain.

After some management it was decided to have the plate out mid year and let it heal.

He's currently healing.

Totally different. Charlie had growth spurt related issues.

These are in the past once he's heeled.

Back him , hes working very hard and confident. Was kicking 2/3 goals a game before this procedure - he is not injured.
