Full credit to the current coaching staff for letting the medicos do their job.

The previous relationship was very toxic & they were under too much pressure to get players back on the field despite not being ready, often being overruled. I don't rate the previous set up, but it was a tough environment to work in.

I can't say I remember it that way. It used to be running joke that players took too long to come back. A 6 week injury would go 6 weeks, 5-6 weeks, 5 weeks, 4-5 weeks, 4 weeks, etc. I think Weber then got moved on and went to the glory who then got smashed with injuries as well.

The Eagles & Dockers medical staff used to catch up often for lunches & share information in regard to recovery & rehabilitation methods. The Eagles staff were amazed at what was happening at the Dockers & the power the coach had.
They rated Weber & his info often helped the Eagles with their players.

Webber was brutal with the players.
Not sure how much that was effected by ross as our injury issues were at freo long before ross.
Obviously Ross didn't help, but Webber wasn't very good.

That might explain the Eagles recent injury record

I cant give any kudos or an out for Weber give both the change in our fortunes since he left and that Glory fired him within like 12 months. Too much evidence he was a quack

I just can’t fathom how he was around for so long while our injury list was consistently 10+ players

Well that doesn't prove he's no good. I've known a few of people* who haven't lasted long in new jobs because they tried to do them properly, when it turned out that wasn't really what a lot of the people at the employer actually wanted. I.E. For all we know he tried to make them fit, which they didn't like.

However: it is a bit suggestive that after Glory he went on to found some dodgy analytics company rather than getting another gig. Plus he erased Glory from his LinkedIn as if it somehow it hadn't been a role reported in the press.

*Obviously I mean me as well.

Unfortunately most of my connections from my playing days are at the Eagles along with a few players I’ve had some coaching relationships with apart from Jye, so the information is coming partly second hand. Although I have heard it from another source.

But my initial point is that Weber hated Lyon & Lyon hated Weber which was extremely toxic. The current structure looks far more cohesive & respectful.

The Harley Bennell recovery plan that one

Oh no the Harley plan had TBCs at both ends as well.

Dockers skipper angling to wear purple arm protector on return from injury if 'boring' AFL will allow it

Fremantle captain Alex Pearce will wear a protective plastic arm guard when he returns to action from a broken arm, possibly as early as next week against Hawthorn, but says whether it's in Dockers purple remains to be seen.

Confirm the color of your arm guard.
Afl are the new ss.

So likely:

• Pearce - 1 week away
• Darcy - 1 week away
• Draper - Test
• Walker - Test

I have a mild concern over Wagner & that hand that got kicked when trying to smother. Lots of little bones in that area.

As long as it's a short recovery now would be a fine time to be out for a couple to a few weeks.

 

[Minz]

Confirm the color of your arm guard.
Afl are the new ss.

Only 3 options, surely? Purple, purple/green/white/red, or rainbow?

[DragoDelph]

Be crazy if Oscar makes it back this year, but 7 weeks is 1st September, so there's a chance he plays, even if at WAFL.

 

[greatgatsby]

I get the impression the skipper really wants to play in Tassie. And skippers probably have the right to declare themselves fit.

 

[Taylor]

But my initial point is that Weber hated Lyon & Lyon hated Weber which was extremely toxic.

Looks to me that Lyon demands a physical effort out of players that makes it very difficult to get them up for the following weekend, slowly whittling them down.

That plus Weber being so shit at his job probably compounded things.
