Injury Blue Healers - 2017 Injury List

[Blue Pulse]

No ice on the leg is not a good sign, if you ever want to know if you have broken a bone, put ice on it, it intensifies the pain. If he still has a plate in his leg and it is the same leg injured, he has re fractured it. The bones flex, the plates doesn't, this is the reason Fyfe broke his leg in the same spot. Sometimes the old reset and cast is the best option rather than a plate.

I hope not but from his reaction after it happened I think he knew that it was the same thing as last time.

Big issue with both Cripps and Ed out...our 2 biggest mids.

Graham would have to come in you'd think...thought he was a bit stiff to get dropped he certainly gets involved in the contested ball laying tackles, diving on the ball etc

Gibbs is a lot bigger than Ed

Gibbs is a lot bigger than Ed

Taller maybe, but Curnow is much more solidly built.

Agree, his face said it all. But how tough is he to basically semi jog off the ground. I hope it isn't broken but the signs aren't good.

how long does bone bruising take to heal ?

 

[AB_Blue]

What the hell is a bone bruise anyway

Would vary dramatically

 

[Cripps17]

Not so much worried for the layoff as I am about what impact it may have long term.

 

[Mister Carlton]

My old was sitting next to White in the waiting room this morning.

Did Cripps have ice on it on the bench?

Edit: yes I realise I answered my own question

If Stringer could come back from that train wreck cripps should be right.

 

[Cripps17]

Hopefully a good outcome for White also, not great to see players finish their time through injury (think he may be retained though).

 

[Coops93]

Didn't Cripps have a bit of bone bruising a few weeks back? I wonder if it could be the same area, making them take no risks and keep him out the rest of the match..

 

[Big Red is back]

Spot on - broken legs can always present issues longer term

 

[Arr0w]

If Stringer could come back from that train wreck cripps should be right.

I know what you mean, but that doesn't instill me with any confidence given Stringer's form over the last 12 months

In an early post i wrote Crippa was in the bench without any ice just an elasticized bandage,you'd think that wouldve eliminated bone bruising?
More leaning towards a fracture seeing that,i reckon?

 

[I bleed Blue]

What the hell is a bone bruise anyway

Very ****ing painful.

Had it in my knee once. Thought the knee was a full blow out.

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

What the hell is a bone bruise anyway

Had it on my hip once and **** it hurt more than when I broke my arm.

Exactly. Bloke is fast developing a 200 game warrior's body, 150 games too early. Put your fibulas out for young Crippa.
