Player Watch #3: Harry Sheezel - 23 AFL RS/NM SBM, AFLPA BYP, '24 AA squad, '24 AFLCA BYP

[Roos92]

He was in absolute cruise control out there prior to the injury. Effortlessly doing as he pleased. Some sort of player.

Game changed after he got injured…
Shows how much we rely on him …
Sad really

I still think of the crop of kids we've got and inexplicably due to circumstances we've been linked to JHF, Reid and Naicos...

Obviously sheezel, wardlaw, mckercher are the 3 that really correlate to them.

Would I swap one of them? For the other? Never sheezel.

Wardlaw has an intangible, so without being close to him I can't make a call - output wise you'd probably swap him for any of them, but the balance of our midfield would shift so much might be more detrimental and he ain't THAT far behind.

Mckercher? For naicos yes. For reid maybe. For JHF no.

Regardless we have a crop. This doesn't even include duursma

McKercher was five times better than Reid today.

 

[ferball]

I’ve got the stomach…
I’ve been taking shit longer than Sheez’s parents were playing in their sand pit …

Some people might think you missed an "l" in there somewhere.

 

[Its a Process]

Our best player by the length of the Flemington straight.

Made two errors today that led to goals, but also had 31, kicked two and 7 tackles on 1 leg.

 

[koshari]

McKercher was five times better than Reid today.

reid is pretty raw, kerch plays to structures better and is actually pretty mature for his age, like sheezel lite.

No Sheezel No North is going to become a thing soon.

It’ll happen in another unexpected loss and someone in the media will say it.

 

[FootySmartSimpson]

Sole captain

Xerri and Sheeze. Rolls off the tongue.

 

[Ashley B]

Would like to make Harry Captain now . But we must remember he is still very young and I don’t want to put any undue pressure on his development. Make him Captain in 2 or 3 years. He should be averaging 45 possessions a game by then. So the extra finger pointing and instruction during games might have a minimal effect. He he may just get mid 30s lol

 

[Sphynx]

Think the injury is a little understated.

Will wait this week, but looked like it might have been a foot rather than a shin/ankle.

Looked like a possible syndesmosis to me.

Wouldn’t be at all surprised if that’s him done for the year.

throw away line but like you say will be trodded out,

practically speaking no team covers a player of sheezels quality, few teams have multiple players of that calibre,

 

[Psicosis]

Syndis

 

[giantroo]

Syndis

Just our luck.

 

[Mordecai]

How long he's out for? Sucks for him after a ripper season.

2 weeks.

 

[Disco Dew]

Just our luck.

Time to rest up Harry ol boy

 

[Twangler]

Any long term complications with that injury like you’d see with ACLs?

 

[JGreezy]

reid is pretty raw, kerch plays to structures better and is actually pretty mature for his age, like sheezel lite.

Reid just isn't a mid. Or he's a couple of years off it. A great talent, though. Just not optimised based on his current ability.

Effectively strained ligaments type of injury, sheez being a pro will do all the stuff text book. Will play round one next year and be cherry ripe.

 

[Val Keating]

FFS

 

[tommy_uman]

What's the recovery time on that, like 6-10 weeks?

 

[koshari]

What's the recovery time on that, like 6-10 weeks?

Depends on how conservative you want to go, charley curnot for example obviously came back to early.

 

[shinboner magic]

He doesn’t get injured and he would of kick 5 plus

 

[Ligma]

Genuinely could win the Brownlow next year.

Nate7 ... Can you tell us if there's any difference between ligaments, tendons and syndesmosis (apart from not being able to order syndesmosis in your local Chinese restaurant)?

I want details. Diagnosis, prognosis and your suggestion on the best sauce for the slow cooked braised tendons?
