Injuries & Suspensions - Reports & Discussion

[Judd_Magic]

Also any spuds who have Tambling or Dawson should look elsewhere.

Tambling elbow to Schneider's neck/shoulder/head area and Dawson dropped Knights before the first bounce.

Dam, have both of them.

2 more trades coming up for me.

Worrying news for all of us with Higgins.


http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/a...y/story-e6frf9jf-1226048239455?from=public_js

The Bulldogs appear certain to be without Shaun Higgins for Saturday's clash with Sydney in Canberra.

Though the Bulldogs have yet to officially rule out Higgins, they are intent on taking a cautious approach with the dangerous forward and midfield star.

"He's just got soreness around the groin," football manager James Fantasia said.

"We're not 100 per cent sure what it is. He's had it before."Higgins missed Sunday's loss to Collingwood, but the Dogs are adamant the injury will not impede his long-term future.

"The temptation is to play him, but wiser heads are prevailing," Fantasia said. "Don't rule him out completely, but we think he may have to miss one more.

Soreness '...around the groin'?

feck

Anybody have the latest on Marc Murphy?

Anybody have the latest on Marc Murphy?

Cleared to play.

The Rioli and Higgins combo that worked so good at the start of the year is starting to turn into a bad decision.

 

[ascension]

Injury woes started early this year. You pick Jack becuase of his durability and what happens... Out for 6 a few rounds in. FFS. Longmire probably made it 3 times worse by leaving him out on the pitch.

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

Higgins is really not up to it. I will keep him, but he is only a 3-4 weeker away from getting upgraded.

The kid is softer than baby shit

Might be good to upgrade him to Chapman.
( Who also has injury issues, but is likely to get knocked right out rather than try to play through a bout of low scoring OP ).

Dislocated Finger in the last qtr v Dees.

May be one of those nasty compound fractures.

 

[Jobe Watson]

Higgins missed Sunday's loss to Collingwood, but the Dogs are adamant the injury will not impede his long-term future.

Hopefully they're just being cautious and it isn't OP. I could handle him missing a week if it means he isn't put at any further risk.

 

[Big Sledge #32]

Higgins is a player who can miss 3-4 weeks in a row with soreness. Think I'll just stick him on my bench this week and deal with him next week.

I'm not ****ing around with him this year.

With 23 trades in hand he'll become Pav or Chapman.

This, this and this.

Agree that it might have to wait til next week though

Update on Rioli:

Hawthorn Football Club can confirm scans have revealed only minor bleeding in Cyril Rioli’s right hamstring.

With the Hawks having the bye this weekend, further assessment will be made in the lead up to the Round 7 Port Adelaide match.

A further update will be provided next Tuesday, in the Hawks regular injury update.

Sounds like a possible Round 8 return, which is good news for his owners.

The motion has been seconded and now thirded Higgins is gone.

Trading him in last year was possibly the biggest net loss I've had on a trade.

Oh and 23 trades left Biggie, that's impressive

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

I'm gonna give Higgins a week. If there is any more soreness, He is straight swap to Chappy.

 

[SJ]

That must have been from last week. Where is this week's update?

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

It's Hawthorn, he will miss 4 weeks. Book it

 

[Spudregus_87]

That must have been from last week. Where is this week's update?

Was the Hawks 2nd latest story on their website newsfeed, so I figured it was post Round 7, but checking the date on the update (27th April) seems as though you're right

Lift your game HFC website!

Bewick's probably out for another week based off comments the Lions' staff have made, but I figure anyone still holding on to him are in for the long run.

Im one of those.

Have no choice but to hold onto him, hasn't nearly made enough money.

Hope Prestia can get a recall however.

Rioli 1-2 weeks??? I thought hed be test?
