Player Watch #4: Aidan Corr - the Mac Daddy of the King Twins.

[roos_fanatic08]

Just what I am told. I hear the infection has really knocked him about. Even if he makes it back we can't expect much this year. Not official - just what I hear on the grapevine.

I thought as of a month ago he was making really good progress…back into training ect. What’s changed?

Dunno - just told that he is struggling with the infection and lingering affects. I suppose there are only 7 rounds left so even if he hit the track now, then played a couple in the twos, its season over anyway. Just hope they can get him fit for 2022.

As good as it would have been to see him play a few games this year, my greater hope is they have got on top of this infection, they get him healthy and he can have a full pre-season.

Yep - this season doesn't matter now.

Sadly, looks like my info is correct. Now listed on injury list as 'indefinite'. Hard to believe a minor toe injury could turn into some so serious.

Maybe you should be the club Dr as then if Corr injury was so bad we could have got another pick in the mid year draft and put Corr on the indefinite list.

I’m currently battling an infection from an operation on my syndesmosis and a re break of my broken leg. They are pretty tricky. Corrs definitely much worse then mine but I am 3 weeks out from surgery and they are still quite worried, does affect your health in other areas too

I think they continually thought they were on top of it but kept going backwards. Dunno tbh. Just sad for Aidan. Seems very unlucky.

Stay healthy Bluey.

Maybe the board the coaching staff the medical staff And supporters can go and see Father Dowling for a prey session before the 2022 season starts to hope for no more injuries and for supporters to turn up to games home or away in Victoria Tasmania or interstate.

Caught up with a mate yesterday who’s mum and Corrs mum are friends and recently went for dinner. It was explained to me yesterday that at one point there were conversations about the leg/foot being amputated.

I heard toe was a real consideration but they are now on top of it. Serious stuff.

Bit of a difference between a toe and a leg being amputated.....

Good to hear that they are getting on top of it though.

Huge difference. Just get him right for next year now.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Fair waste of 500k this year, luckily we aren’t challenging so doesn’t hurt as much

hopefully we get more bang for buck next year

’s recovery form a toe infection continues to progress, however the lack of conditioning training he was able to undertake during recovery has left him with a long road back to match sharpness.

Rawlings says while the club hasn’t ruled out a return for Corr this season, the main focus is returning him to full fitness.

“The nature of the infection meant that he (Corr) couldn’t do any activity for such a long time. No sweating can occur during that recovery period. It’s been a long time with a lack of activity therefore he’s lost a lot of fitness,” he added.

“We’ve had him back running, he’s done some change of direction this week and pulled up well from that.

“There’s a chance he plays this season and we want to be able to give him that chance, but he’s certainly not back to playing within the next few weeks anyway.”

Injury Update (July 10, 2021)

The troops are well and truly on the way back for North Melbourne, with the playing stocks set to be further bolstered in the coming weeks.

Positive update.

Positive update.

No doubt Dude - in fact I would say that is the most positive update for the year for all of our injured players given earlier posts re amputation.

 

[teethmeetsflesh]

So does this mean that they have essentially found a treatment that the infection is responding well to, but he's not cured/cannot start regaining match fitness yet?

Correct - out of the danger zone health wise but has a tonne of fitness work to do before he can play senior football again.

Im sure Aidan will be heartened to hear that you're really concerned about his welfare
