Injury Blue Healers - 2017 Injury List

[Juddrockz]

If it's what we had at the cricket club - Its a weird suction thing that supposedly gets rid of knots and such in muscles - leaves the weirdest perfectly round bruise looking things.

It's called "cupping".

 

[HARKER]

Time to find another hero and make a positive out of a negative.

Any ideas?

 

[HBF]

The fibula is the smaller of the two shin bones. With the larger tibula intact thats why he was able to hobble off.

If he broke both his leg would have bent instead of buckled.

Not sure if lawyer or doctor.

 

[kjr8]

praying for full recovery. is it the same leg as 2014?

 

[rog1995]

Nick Graham just got a lifeline.

 

[ParapMarkets]

The nice thing about bone healing is, it's ****ing mint as.

Bones are inherently extremely vascular (which is great), have inbuilt stem cells in droves ready to deposit new bone matrix (which is great) and the end result is often as strong, if not stronger than the old bone.








This is me consoling myself with science...

Good enough for me. I'm trying hard to cling to any positive I can with this injury. He's our best player.

 

[Jabba73]

Cupping can be painful.

Had a Physio that was a fan, knew where to find the sore spots too. Must have done some good, only missed three weeks.

 

[Blue_Fusion]

Already 18th in clearances now we'll be 19th.

Great news that it's not as bad as it could have been. Cripps will come back next season breathing fire.

 

[Soapy V]

Cotton wool time for Cripps. Look forward to seeing how well he does after an injury free pre season

Let's keep his thread on topic thanks folks!

 

[TBellicious]

What is cupping even for?

 

[Go_Blues!]

Cupping I think it's called

Is that like spooning?

Agreed I bet everyone has a theory or two - lets see what the Bolton formula delivers.

 

[rog1995]

Already 18th in clearances now we'll be 19th.

Great news that it's not as bad as it could have been. Cripps will come back next season breathing fire.

Not sure that Bolts is concerned about clearences tbh. Hawks never were and still dominated.

 

[Navara79]

What is cupping even for?

Helps with blood circulation. I've had it done a few times for different things and it's worked every time

 

[jezzajay]

What is cupping even for?

I used to get it done on my back (alongside aroma therapy and acupuncture) about ten years ago...muscular therapy amongst other things for me...better than a massage i can tell you.

 

[Stiffler's Dad]

What is cupping even for?

If you're no good at spooning you are usually expected to be good at cupping.

 

[Great8]

That absolutely sucks, love watching him play. One of my favourite non Essendon players. Hopefully he comes back stronger next year

 

[Stiffler's Dad]

Is that like spooning?

Great minds think alike GB!

 

[Tony Lynn 15]

That is a big relief, only 6 week injury so he will be back in time for the finals!

 

[AB_Blue]

That is a big relief, only 6 week injury so he will be back in time for the finals!

lol you idiot

 

[Jade]

Well that's just shit. Love watching this kid play.

On a positive note, back for day one of preseason is good news.

 

[Cripps17]

My physio has insisted on weekly cupping sessions to help with wrist pain for a while now, but I don't see how you could do it with your back?

 

[JayJ20]

Ah that's shattering.

Genuinely one of my favourite opposition players.

Hope he has a speedy recovery and comes back firing next year.

 

[Cripps17]

The end result is often as strong, if not stronger than the old bone

I'm picturing a crazed fan running around pulverizing our players with a baseball bat now. Not sure why he's wearing my clothes though.
