That was obvious,just voicing what my perception has been in regards to keeping injuries in house in the past.

Encouraging news there about Henderson. Might see him back sooner than we thought.

"Hendo not seen on the track despite CS saying he had turned the corner. "

If he's turning corners, his knee must be OK.

I think this is a positive out of that update:
Used in the ruck against the Hawks when Ratugolea missed with a hip complaint, Mark Blicavs didn't join with Ottens, training with the main group ahead of a return to defence.

Depends which way he’s turning. Sounds like it’s actually circles, kinda like a ship without a rudder

So it seems we have 3 multiple week additions to the
Cocky PCL injury- could be a longer time off than first thought - was mentioned as at least 6 weeks but no real info there.
Ablett - Hammy - at least 3 weeks you 'd think.
Guthrie - if Selwood could walk off and was 3 weeks last year, im totally guessing but Guthrie could be at least 4-6 weeks. If it achilles, goodbye 2018.

The good news is between Cocky's calf, hammy and PCL in the knee, there is nothing left for him to hurt.

With no legs, maybe he'll do well to get into wheelchair footy? :O
I feel quite bizarre but I’m relieved it a PCL and not a hammy or calf
He looked imposing at times today and was part of the spark that got us back in the 3rd quarter
I really hope his career lives up to its potential - he is a special type of player :thumbs up:

Jon Ralph just said on Fox Footy that the club suspects Cockatoo’s injury is minor and he could potentially only miss a fortnight.

A minor PCL? Or is the PCL assumption just wrong?
fpm84

Ralph said minor PCL. I don’t know enough about to know if that’s a thing or not. But he stated the club is happy that the injury isn’t as severe as suspected.
A tight hamstring is typically classified as a 0.5 Grade in the physio world and is 2-3 weeks. It’s very standard, you can put your pitchfork back in the shed.

PCLs aren’t so bad, I wouldn’t be surprised with a two week turnaround. Gaz’s hamstring looked like a Grade 2 to me, meaning he’ll probably miss six weeks.
Edit - some more PCL info.
