Zak Butters to start running this week. Fingers crossed the knee is feeling a bit better.
Bad luck tbh. Butters’ nerve damage says it all.Our injury management this year = bad or bad luck?
If you look at the types of injuries.. its just bad luckOur injury management this year = bad or bad luck?

With exception to Burgoyne, they’re all impact related. Definitely bad luck.As a general rule of thumb, I start pointing the finger at fitness staff when the injuries are all generally the same 'type'. Currently, our injury list has a little bit of everything and we've had a really good run recently, so I think this is just a case of bad luck.
Starting to look good in about a month from now.Injury list
Trent Burgoyne – hamstring (1-2 weeks)
Ryan Burton – knee (assess)
Zak Butters – knee (TBC)
Tom Clurey – jaw (4 weeks)
Xavier Duursma – knee (4-6 weeks)
Orazio Fantasia – knee (3-4 weeks)
Jarrod Lienert – concussion (1-2 weeks)
Jackson Mead – spleen (TBC)
Jake Pasini – shoulder (2-3 weeks)
Tom Rockliff – DVT (TBC)
Let’s hope AFL defers games for a month then.Starting to look good in about a month from now.
****Luke Surman has been ruled out for the season with his shoulder injury.
Bummer. I was looking forward to the Preacher imposing himself, now that we finally have recruited a big solid bastard as one of our top up players. Though at the start of the season that we might look at him for the mid season draft.Luke Surman has been ruled out for the season with his shoulder injury.
He's behind Robbie Gray in the 2nd picture I put.
