Injury 2024 injury thread

Well that really sucks but it probably simplifies the Adams inclusion, doesn't it? Likely shift Roberts or Jmac back if he ends up playing and play Adams at half forward.

Adams either mid or not for me , doing the hard things.

He doesn’t get near it a hf and can’t kick

Otherwise play fox straight away for mills

Roberts is back lol

 

[RampeRobe]

Roberts is back lol

I feel like he was more forward of the ball against GWS though, to be fair

 

[kneecapper]

Roberts is back lol

Roberts was moved forward after McInerney was subbed

 

[wills2g]

Jmac back, campbell wing, adams sub?

15 days to GF.

If by 15 you mean 17 then yes

 

[zyzzbruh]

He's not built for footy

 

[Callipygian]

Fox should come in for Mills. Campbell should come into the 22. Probably Juzzy can be sub, otherwise Adams.

 

[Tedeski]

But they’ll make the decision before they come to Melbourne.
They always plan the team early.
He won’t play.

I think it'll come down to specific match ups. If it's hawthorn, despite the fact they are touted as a small forward line, it's probably fox (McCartin Melican and Fox v Dear, Gunston/Bruest and Chol) whereas Port have less in the way of marking targets so we can probably play Adams for extra midfield grunt

28 !

Confusing it with GF date. Senior moment.

Will Edwards
Will has commenced weight bearing from his ankle surgery. He is completing strength and conditioning work.

Jacob Konstanty
Jacob had surgery on his foot last week. He will spend a period of time in a moon boot.

Callum Mills
Callum suffered a hamstring strain at training and is unavailable for the Preliminary Final.

Jack Buller
Jack has commenced skills-based work with the team.

JK will be one of those players that could never get his body right sadly

The responses from Horse and Chad when asked about Mills injury don't fill me confidence. I think he's probably done for the season. Chad almost seemed like he went to say something he shouldn't have before pulling himself up.

Foot injuries seem to be about the worst type of injury.

Especially the dreaded “turf toe”.

Completely destroyed Matt Ling’s career & Konstanty seems likely to go the same way.

He hasn't got turf toe

He hasn't got turf toe

I realise that - but foot injuries always seem to take a long time to heal. Turf toe, stress fractures, whatever - they’re all shockers.

An interesting week to unfold and maybe a couple of big decisions to be made for the big one.

Mills, will he be fit?
McDonald and his rolled ankle. How serious is it?
Blakey copped a knock late and was limping in the last few minutes. Hopefully a very minor knock?
