Tom Lynch, hamstring - ruled out for the remainder of the season
"(A full pre-season for him is) extremely important. Tom's actually now missed two full pre-seasons, and even on top of that, he's missed two off-seasons. So, he's gone into the last two off-seasons rehabbing, and low level rehab. So, it's quite exciting for us to get Tom healthy at this stage of the year, so he can have a decent break, attack his off-season and do a full pre-season, which will hold him in great stead for next year and be really exciting for our Tigers supporters."

Liam Baker, concussion
"Unfortunately (with when) it happened, the timing's not great because the 12-day concussion protocol will rule him out for two games. He started doing some light exercise today and we anticipate he'll be healthy for the last game against the Suns."

Kane McAuliffe, illness
"Kane's been battling a chest infection the last few weeks. The doctor made a decision last Saturday morning to pull him out of the (VFL) game, he just still wasn't right. He's feeling a little bit better today, so we'll see how he is later in the week. We anticipate he'll be okay to play."

Marlion Pickett, hamstring
"Marlion's moving okay, we'll just see how he is later this week with regards to this weekend, but we're hoping he'll at least play the last game."

Tom Brown, ankle
"'Browny' had surgery on his right shoulder last week, he's pulled up really well. He's also in a moon boot for his syndesmosis. He'll have surgery in about four weeks' time on his other shoulder, but from all reports, he's going really well."

Steely Green, ankle
"Steely's in a moon boot. He's like a Jumping Jack at the moment, he doesn't really know what to do with all his spare time. He's feeling a lot better and he'll be fine for a full pre-season."

Jack Ross and Liam Fawcett, VFL returns
"(They went) really great. Liam just played the half, he's pulled up really well. We'll increase his game time this weekend. 'Rossy' (was) the same, he pulled up quite well and we're looking forward to seeing him play (again) this week."

Campbell Gray, hamstring
"Campbell's going okay. Like we mentioned earlier, he's working a lot on his athletic traits, working really hard with our medical and fitness staff. At this stage, we're probably not going to see him again this year, but he's looking okay for a full pre-season."

Josh Gibcus, knee
"'Gibbo' has turned the corner in the last couple of weeks, his strength has really improved, and we're really hoping to get him running next week."

Mate Colina, back
"Mate had a positive scan yesterday. It showed full healing his bone edema. We're going to consult with a specialist to see what our next move is with him."
“Exciting for us see Tom getting healthy at this time of year”….

Would have been more exciting to see him healthy during both or either of 2023/4
 
This is the problem with our medical team:

Tom Brown, ankle
"'Browny' had surgery on his right shoulder last week”

Lucky they didn’t amputate any of his appendages whilst they were at it”
nobody knew he was even injured

So Tom Brown is also going to have surgery on his other shoulder too…

What are the chances our elite medicos sent him in for the first one but told the surgeon the wrong side 🤪

Match fitness is paramount in actual football - if you’re not match fit you’re out of the team - and most AFL teams can get 22 blokes to play four quarters as standard. Something has happened to our standards in training as there doesn’t seem to even be one guy who can last a whole game let alone a full team. Obviously if you’re unfit you overdo it and end up with hamstring/back injuries. And with the ACLs, my completely uninformed hunch is everyone skips leg day.

acl is due to poor conditining , not luck as the louie fans would have you believe
 
I was just thinking how good the Hawks look, they are a big athletic outfit, and no surprise it’s Burge that’s running their program.
I’ll use Josh Weddle as an example, he’s a second year player and already looks a beast. The kid is a beauty, reminds me of a young Kouta . Ok granted there’s a fair degree of genetics in play with him, but overall he has the team in great nick
Livingstone says Louie us the best in the business , so would assume Benny thinks Livingstone is the best in the business

So an ankle problem requires surgery to the shoulder
