He’s fine

Agree on cox, he knew it was bad straight away too.

I’m still holding hope that omac isn’t that serious. Didn’t look like an acl to me. With no basis I’m guessing 6 weeks.

Try 6 months. Cox 4 months.

I think Luke Ryan is a great interceptor anyway. Just get Tabs or Treacy to play back if we need a 2nd gorilla tamer.

 

[Lach72]

When was he concussed. Been a few weeks now.

He got clobbered by Harry Barnett against Eagles. He went hard at Barnett and Harry did the same, and Odin came off second best

How did this club go from 2 long term injuries to depth players to this Very very unlucky

sounds like no replacement for OMac, Walker in, and either Voss or Tabs

I can’t handle Tabs stinking up the 50

Pearce leaning to Draper, ultimately it’s not his decision but he will weigh in on it. Pearce game in he weekend was solid. His best game imo

makes me wonder if we have problems with Optus again, after all the events we have had recently. Wagner, McDonald and Cox were injured because they played with so much commitment, and their accidents were from going in hard. If that's the passion they have in them (that we want/need) then there was nothing we could have done to prevent those accidents. Clark was unstoppable, and maybe did too much?

 

[FreoGirl]

Surely if the source literally says he's being managed through training, not that he's going to miss games through injury, we say that on this thread?

Why say he's injured, then point to information that doesn't say that?

The West are the ones reporting he has a "calf issue"

Pearce looks lean but got his way

 

[Spirit Level]

Can we add cox and McDonald to the long term injury list and have extra picks in the mid season draft ? I guess it’s possible either one or two of them will be back mid season but just a hypothetical

Wouldn't need to, apparently we have space on the list

Dogs make an offer, Tiger wants more, Hawks miss access to top prospect

Whats the difference between detached ACL and torn?

 

[Taylor]

If it's like other areas then I'd expect it's putting that little chunk of bone that ligament tore off as it came free - back where it was, pin it, and then skip the graft from the hamstring or the patella. There might be a fair bit more bleeding into the joint currently with a bone injury over the ligament torn in half.

 

[s_wd6]

Detached means it's come off the bone, torn means the actual ligament is torn.

Right so basically an avulsion fracture rather than tear? That would be a good result all things considered.

 

[DocT]

And I guess it means his ACL is actually pretty strong.

 

[FreoGirl]

that just sounds horrible

Darcy made an appearance at training

Corbett running didn't he go for major hip surgery?

Maybe accelerating rehab to help with our low defensive stock?

 

[Taylor]

People walk out of hospital after a hip replacement. Josh is 15-16 weeks on from his right anterior hip replacement.

So if he comes off lti list no mid season pick?

I don't think he can be reactivated for 2024.
