Injury 2013 injury list

[RW]

Monday injury wrap: http://www.afl.com.au/news/2013-09-09/veteran-swans-doubtful

Key points:

* McVeigh sprained one of the joints in his knee, which is still sore. Also carrying a left calf injury apparently, but could play with strapping/support. Jude has a badly corked quad. Both will have light weeks on the track. I would guess Biggs or Lamb are probably the most likely to come in if either one of them doesn't come up, but I can't see either player missing a final!

* Rohan struggling with calf/shin soreness. I'd personally focus on getting him ready for 2014, it's been an amazing effort to get this far, he has literally done all he can possibly do this year.

* Goodes training well, but question over match conditioning (obviously). I think we may as well play him if Rohan isn't right.

* No mention of LRT or Reid.

* Clean bill of health for everyone else according to Longmire.

Yer i posted that yesterday Doc Larkins did a overview of our match injuries

 

[RW]

Yep, it's a bit more detailed as the article was posted this afternoon, but otherwise pretty much the same.

 

[S120]

I really hope Larkins has sources on this shit (he might as he is a very senior figure in the sports medicine field) because just commenting blindly on these injuries without a decent source is just irresponsible.

I really dislike him.

 

[RW]

I know what you mean and I actually thought twice about posting the update because it was Larkins but it sounded like he had a bit more info and he was just saying who he thought would/wouldn't play. I probably should have said to take with a grain of salt!

AJ - Season
Reid - R9
Goodes - R13
Mattner - R7
Shaw - 5 games for the year
LRT - R4
Rohan - 4 games which is better than expected
Jetta - R10 only come back last week
Mumford , Hanners , Mcglynn all injured at some point

Well done to Horse this year to even get us in the top 4 , win or lose this week with that injury list to key playmakers im happy with how they have handled it this year.
2014 will be a very different looking side come round 1

Just hope this injury to Mitchell doesn't hurt his 2014 pre season as he didn't have a pre season this year due to injury

 

[SM]

We were chatting at the game, did Mitchell have issues with his foot before? Or was it his back?

 

[lock33]

I was just noticing all the calf and ankle injuries in the comp have had an abnormal spike, anywhere I can get more info on it? Also with Mitchell I heard that with his ankle injury, in the persons words bone had come off? Not sure what that actually meant is there a detailed report anywhere?

In the case of Mitchell, I think there was ligament damage that chipped the bone.

Its hard to believe that such an innocuous thing has resulted in such a serve injury, after watching the replay it actually reminded me a lot of the Tommy Walsh injury just an unfortunately combination of fully stretched out going for the ball and an awkward landing.

No directed solely at you Vonn, but do you know what the longer term prognosis is and if the injury will have any effect on his preseason?

Horse said it shouldn't interrupt his pre season

Does anyone know what Tippett has done??

 

[RW]

Does anyone know what Tippett has done??

Knee - He strained one of the ligaments in his fibula according to Horse. He had carried a slight knee issue into the semi final, I think they were saying if we made the grand final it would be touch and go as to whether he would be right to play.

Thank you

Good to hear Horse in presser say that no 1 in the off season will need to have surgery and that Mitchell had surgery and was not as bad as first thought and will also have a full pre season

 

[bedford]

I thought you might have started the 14 injury list thread

 

[Punts]

There hopefully wont be a 2014 thread for injuries

 

[bedford]

good reply

 

[RTTF]

FWIW, apparently AJ's doing OK post 2nd reco. Gone to Europe for hols & *cross fingers* should be good to go early next season

Now you've mentioned Europe the whole concept of skiing now terrifies me
