Injury 2024 Injury Thread

Early call is he has broken it.

Meaning what? Worse than or same as before?

His previous injury was a fractured forearm. So this would be worse.

If this is true whoever approved Pearce to play should be bonked on the head. An injury prone captain playing with a cast with top four on the line. Insanity.

isn't W1 finals 7 September? that's 7 weeks from potential broken bone injury. Possible availability opinion from the medicos on here?

Fractured and broken are the same thing. But yeah, it’s worse than before.

 

[StingBitten]

Ooh gotta love no-context injury-crisis Mondays!!

Probably should have just gone the old fashioned treatment - cast and let bone heal itself. Takes longer but once healed the bone is nice and strong. Now he has metal work in his forearm which complicates things.

See what the club say tomorrow.

Thank you.

Drives me nuts that people speak about them as different.

Regardless let's at least hope it's a return for finals type injury.

I'm hearing 4-5 weeks for Alex back for finals hopefully

 

[Joao]

Let's go Drapes.

That would be a best case scenario. At least we know that he can come in without losing a beat.

Still think we can hold on until then so long as Darcy stays healthy.

That Ross lyon induced pre finals bye could be a godsend if so

Aim for finals. Draper can hold the fort until then.

 

[MadEyeEmmy]

I will donate my forearm bone

 

[Dockeroo]

Will have to do without him till finals now you’d assume.
What’s the likelihood of him playing again within 7 weeks? That’s week 1 of finals

isn't Pearce. This isn't quite the same as playing with Pearce and Draper, although we did beat Sydney without Cox or Pearce.

Other than a touch up game, maybe does that at peel instead for limited minutes

****s sakeeeeeee guys I’m scared

 

[ilikepotatoes]

Fracture healing is usually around 6 weeks.

So with the pre finals bye that works out well.

Hopefully Draper can stand up like against the Swans over the next month to help us hold on to top 4.

 

[JammoMonty]

Let's go Drapes.

Send him straight to Darling this weekend to build up his confidence
