Injury SJOGHCIU - Offseason Edition

[JoshWoodenSpoon]

And a Partridge in a pear tree!

 

[BeornJ]

Bit suspicious that it's only the players and none of the coaching staff from getting injured

 

[BeornJ]

Could Partridge play in a fwd pocket for us?

 

[Rowan18]

Do you acknowledge that additional unplanned minutes and a lack of rotations, plus more ToG can all contribute to soft-tissue injuries?

If so, can you also acknowledge that said higher workload happened due to a raft of impact injuries?

Then, do you agree that these soft tissue injuries have all happened after the impact injuries, which resulted in an increased workload on the fit players?

If you can acknowledge these things, you can then understand why these soft tissue injuries occurred.

We also just employed a new S&C coach with a strong track record, who has the players fitter than they've been in years.

All those impact injuries created a flow on effect. It is what it is.

The club should have rotated them out sooner if they felt they were being overloaded. They did this with Hurn, but you're saying they chose to run a first year player like Long into the ground? Either they mismanaged the rotations/time on ground, or they mismanaged the conditioning. Either way, it is a ****up.

The derby is a pass because we lost the bench during the game, but the games after that still had 22 players.

Wouldn’t mind Partridge coming in for Parto

Ok, who do they replace them with?

 

[Kegs15]

is your mate, the agronomist, knee deep in clunge?

He's a bit coy on the subject, you'll probably have to speak to Aunty Waterman for the juicier details

 

[Rowan18]

Whoever was in the WAFL.

Last week? Trew could have played instead of Long.

The week before we had even more options (XON for example).

Instead, they've run the fatigued ones into the ground and now we're stuffed as there is no-one left.

 

[Woobla Stainz]

Studying physiotherapy hey? Have I got a job for you!

Sweet, does it involve credits in the bank and a job for life?

Also....

It's actually funny how many injuries we are getting.

No point worrying now, it's beyond buggered.

Nope. Grounded next to the tree (hammy).

Long playing an average of 77% time on ground as a small forward doesn’t seem like running him into the ground, young or not

 

[RookiePick]

When the team would follow their captain anywhere. Even into the rehab group!

My original point was that either they had pushed players too much by overloading them, or their conditioning was shit, which is why we have so many hamstring injuries at the moment. Long was just an example.

In isolation, you would say it was bad luck, but we have a lot of soft tissue injuries all of a sudden. Long is also a first year player, so his conditioning wouldn't be as good as an established player meaning that 77% TOG may have been too much week after week. You usually suffer tightness before you get a strain, so it's likely that there were warning signs for a lot of these (eg Gov and his fitness test, Yeo and his weeks and weeks out with a "calf").

Rubbish, it's not mismanagement. It's bad luck
Maybe
Gypsy curse
Voodoo
Chinese black magic
Sorcery
The dark side of the force
Lord Voldemort with a horcrux

But definitely not mismanagement.

According to Ryan Daniels Long has “hamstring soreness”, so maybe he’s actually now at the point you’re saying he was at before the Cats game.

Good point - maybe they are starting to change. Hurn could be an example of that too.

Or maybe they haven't run him in to the ground and are rotating him now before they do?

Edit: I should have kept reading as this point has already been made

 

[Mop]

Anyone dare to guess our 22 for the weekend?

 

[kaiserchief13]

How can you be so cool with it? Every fresh injury feels like a blow atm

I don't believe its all bad luck. Maybe a few of them but theres 18 months body of evidence of an unusually high injury toll.

For some reason some fans don't want to criticise the club no matter what, even when facts are staring them in the face

Is 001 Shannon Hurn?

 

[kranky al]

That list didn’t include Hurn either

Lists dont “include” hurn

Hurn decides whether or not he feels like including lists.
