I thought I'd make this thread to explain about all the pre-season injuries.
I know their is the training report thread and Luke Mitchell's injury thread , but I think we should have one to keep track of all the injuries.
Mods, feel free to delete it if you don't think it's necessary.
Luke Mitchell- Shoulder reconstruction - 12-16 weeks
Nick Duigan - Cartilage removed from knee - 5 to 6 weeks
Sam Rowe- AC joint - 3-4 weeks

Luke Mitchell- Shoulder reconstruction - 12-16 weeks
"Luke suffered a hit to his arm at training on Monday. He had his shoulder pulled back a little bit and it dislocated... then popped back in.
"It will be about a 12-16 week recovery. Realistically, we'll see Luke back playing footy between rounds six to nine."
Nick Duigan - Cartilage removed from knee - 5 to 6 weeks
Defender Nick Duigan, who starred in his debut season with the Blues, has undergone minor surgery to remove some cartilage from his knee.
"It was giving him a bit of pain and a bit of swelling. Now that it has been removed, he'll rest up and be back playing within five to six weeks."
Sam Rowe- AC joint - 3-4 weeks
"Sam fell awkwardly and hurt his AC joint. He just jarred it really, so there's no need for surgery, but it's certainly in a sling at the moment and he'll be back running in a couple of days," McKay said.
"The good thing with this type of injury is that you can keep your fitness up. He'll be back in about three or four weeks, ready to go."
