Injury 2023 Injury Thread

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Most of our injuries are from collisions/contact.

Interesting the two soft tissue injuries are to players not renowned for their pre season work.

 

[MR0808]

Welp, he's out!

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Surely this is it for Sam Reid.?

 

[Troystenvic]

They would be crazy to offer him a new contract

 

[MR0808]

Surely this is it for Sam Reid.?

You'd think he's done now and we won't see him in red and white again

 

[Punts]

New it

Horse hinted in presser

 

[Donza]

Surely this is it for Sam Reid.?

New it

Horse hinted in presser

We both said it months ago.

Sad though.

 

[sthmelb_dimmies]

Surely this is it for Sam Reid.?

I reckon he'd still have trade value with some Sydneyphile clubs e.h. Carlton & StKilda

 

[DobmusEdge]

Lets be honest its not really a "injury list" that should be responsible for such poor outings.

I mean if we cant cover 2 people then yer fubar.

I strongly disagree.

Sammy, Paddy and Dane were all critical to our grand final charge and difficult positions to replace

Not only that Rampe and McCartin were from the same area, and Sam often helped there.

Injury Update: Reid out, Rampe improves

An update on the Sydney Swans injury list has been released ahead of Round 9.

www.sydneyswans.com.au

Head of Physiotherapy and Medical Services Damian Raper provided an update on the injury list ahead of Round 9 against Fremantle, presented by Castlereagh Imaging.

Matt Roberts
Matt’s recovery from a knee injury continues to progress. He is increasing his range of movement and working on his strength in the gym. We expect him to remain in a brace for at least another fortnight.

Dane Rampe
Dane continues to improve in his recovery from a neck injury. He is completing strength-based work and maintaining his aerobic fitness on the track.

Joel Amartey
Joel is progressing his running speed and volume. He has commenced rehab skills and change of direction work.

Paddy McCartin
Paddy is completing some light aerobic exercise as a part of his recovery. He continues to see external specialists as part of his recovery and his wellbeing remains the number one priority.

Sam Reid
Sam was unable to progress to running last week as planned due to persistent symptoms from the injury suffered in the pre-season. After consultation with specialists, Sam underwent surgery on his hamstring tendon yesterday. He will miss the remainder of the season.

Marc Sheather
Marc sustained a bone bruise to his knee in the second quarter against Collingwood. He will be monitored throughout the week.

And still no mention of Caleb Mitchell.
caesar88 (back on 25 April 2023) said that Mitchell has 'glandular fever, not serious'.

Mitchell hasn't played since late March. The guy is on our senior list, and assuming it is nothing more 'personal' than glandular fever it seems disrespectful to the guy not to at least give him a call out in the injury report.

 

[DobmusEdge]

Early in-game injuries have been killing us.

Q1

• Paddy concussed two minutes in re Power
• Mills calf goes two minutes in against Dockers
• Lladams first bounce of the game can’t feel left side of his body

Q2

• T-Mac out concussed re Power
• Roberts soft tissue re Cats
• Amartey hammy re Tigers
• Sheather hyper ex re Magpies
• Logan some sort of foot/ankle injury re Dockers

This is not bad coaching, wrong attitude, bad game plan, poor prep etc - this is just super bad luck. Especially the games when multiple personal go down early (power and dockers eg made a huge difference)

It isn't just the injuries, it is the fact that they are all long term injuries. Have not had many 2 to 3 injuries this year, they have all been injuries measured in months.

Yeah that’s a seperate but related issue - which is of course killing us

Just saying early in game injuries are point-in-time unforeseen brutal set backs. If Mills had of got the sniper in the warmup or during the week for eg, at least we have Stephens or Sheldrick come into the team rather than just playing a man down two minutes in

So Paddy is doing some extremely limited training and seeing external specialists.

So its not clear and cut case that he should retire immediately or avoid contact sport?

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

I reckon he will get another year we kept Naismith after 4? recos

 

[DobmusEdge]

Just the three reco’s for Sammy. AJ had six as a Swan

Just leave it

 

[bedford]

Leave what?

He is allowed to talk about it if he wants

As the club has said there is NO timeframe , it's not about footy now !

 

[MR0808]

Battered and bruised Swans add another two to injury list

Let's just pack up the club for this year and unwrap it next year

 

[Shaq_01]

Paddy like to be put to the long term injury list before the 24th as per afl speculation

So if that happens swans look to draft 2 msd

 

[WillHayward]

So Mills and Logan both out long term.

May as well cut this season now .

Reserves might not win a game all year now.

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

If Mills needs an op on his Achilles then make it so.

​

Early prognosis​

Sydney's injury toll has reached crisis point, with Mills and McDonald both ruled out for an extended period. The status of Ladhams remains unclear, with coach John Longmire indicating Tom Hickey's return last week was forced due to the absence of the incumbent ruckman. The club will take a conservative approach with Tom McCartin after he experienced delayed concussion symptoms last week, clouding his immediate future. All told, the Swans currently have their three best tall defenders, three tall forwards, incumbent ruckman and best midfielder in the casualty ward. The only bright spot last week was the return of Sam Wicks (shoulder) in the VFL. - Martin Smith

 

[RUNVS]

We are going to be killing it in 4 to 6 weeks when Amartey, Mills and Rampe all return.
