I didn’t word it properly, but everyone is blaming Meehan, for all we know, Gibcus could not be putting in the work and is to blame

Good point but was probably the opposite with Gibcus over doing it. Has the determination and work rate. Think I read he was doing a ton of work early to get back asap.

It's happening everywhere, not just at Tigerland. Just off the top of my head ...

4-6 weeks had become 14-16 weeks.

Cam Guthrie has been "medium term" for 10 weeks. If you ordered your steak done medium in Geelong, you get a charcoal mess.

I also believe he really did a number on his hammy and the club didn't want to go down the Dylan Grimes

path and bring him back too soon for it to become an ongoing problem.
Dylan spent 3 to 4 wasted seasons when he was younger.
just disappointing because it's a wasted year and sets him back another 12 months.
Knowing how some of our posters react on here Id say there will be a few writing the kid off next year after a few ordinary games.

So you're saying that Meehan's been moonlighting at rival clubs?

 

[Forensi Tiger]

Probably will ask to be traded at end of year.

 

[Meteoric Rise]

I saw Gibcus walking around in the rooms post game...so the master conditioner Lukey Meehan has done a hell of a good job to get him to be able to move about so freely. Has the squad absolutely primed for big boy month.

Until they sent him to Germany for the “Calves Blood”

Given that one of those is a third drug strike

Because of vaccine injuries causing weaker chronic issues in muscle tendons.

 

[SleepingGiant]

Hahahah you all gobbled that one up.

 

[Truetiger]

lol try to keep on subject

 

[GhostofJimJess]

Liam Jones disagrees

 

[prodigy]

He didn't play a solitary game all season. Fk right off Meehan.

 

[cairo tiger]

how is it a young player is out all year with a hamstring? i am so confused.

 

[Rioli2Rioli]

He didn't play a solitary game all season. Fk right off Meehan.

LOL I dont think anybody really expected him to return this year

Just hope its precautionary and not another mishap


Just put him on a plane to Germany asap

 

[biaseddustyfan]

hamstring discomfort ?

maybe his hammies are just sore from starting to do some actual exercise again after being in meehan's dungeon for 8 months?

 

[Rioli2Rioli]

Germany >>>>>>

 

[Harrison Bergeron]

Done **** all this year - dud, delist.

 

[Coach_Required]

They cut his leg off and put a new one on.

Heard the club will be releasing a new membership package next year

 

[Coach_Required]

You got to ask the question; did they replace his legs with 33yo Luke Shuey

[biaseddustyfan]

eve of round 1 next year both gibcus and lunch will be listed 4-6 weeks on the injury list

stay like that for a month then go up to 7-12

 

[biaseddustyfan]

Rest of the season was a given, known that for awhile lol.
