Injury Murray ACL (last year... cleared of major damage this year)

[Bearded Clam]

I'd almost prefer we put Izak on ice, start his preseason earlier.

Yep.. three or four weeks means he maybe comes back for the west coast game.. last game of the season..

absolutely pointless to risk him on the hard Perth surface for a “dead rubber” type game.

play Newchurch every game for the rest of the season and if he shows something.. keep him.. if not.. move him on.

but these dicks won’t do that.. we’ve got Murphy and Mchenry as our small forwards!.. proven failures at it yes, but dead horse’s are meant to flogged yeah?

With the terrible news of Muzza's knee injury, what KPD's in the early part of the 2nd round do you see being there possibly we should be looking at.

Under no circumstance whatsoever should our 1st be in play as that has to be for a Sanders or a Durrsma type - must be quarantined.

This injury will have no effect on the main draft, whatsoever.
The only sensible thing to do is look at mechanisms similar to those that brought in Murray in the first place.

 

[FR0GGY]

Maybe it's bias, but have we had most of the high profile ACL injuries over the last decade?

Tex and sloane
Not sure Doedee is high profile
Murray isnt
Smith not really

 

[Bearded Clam]

Sh*t news.. but he’ll be back.. he’s a hard nut.. he’ll fight tooth and nail to get back. And he’ll be bigger and stronger.. Burgess will see to it.

play Keane and/or Borlase.. see if they can show something. If not.. piss them off at years end..

but this club wont do that.. they’ll just go with the ol’ “lets just play the 1 KPD“ idea.. which has proven to be a complete failure on several occasion's now.. but dead horse’s are meant to be flogged yeah?..

Ourselves and Brisbane had a bad weekend

I’d say by time Sloane did his he wasn’t (high profile name but not in terms of being a high impact on the team)

Smith absolutely was though
Murray absolutely is (again in terms of impact/value not profile)

I took high profile not to mean importance to the team.

Frampton

Another in the long line of players who were apparently not AFL standard for us and then went on to flourish at another club

We are cursed

better now than in a year we're genuinely competing for a flag.

Nah reckon they’ll do it because they have to

Backing Keane to play this week

Exactly

Disappointing but might help out list depth medium term

 

[earlsta]

Gutted, man I love the way this guy plays

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

Devastated for the lad.

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

if it was a bone break or a muscle injury - maybe. An ACL means the full recovery time and none of this LARS surgery or whatever they call it. He is still young so do it properly and get it right

I didn’t think LARS was a thing anymore.

Ended up just deferring needing a proper reco?!?

 

[Doobie Doedee]

Has anyone else noticed that this is now the second time this season we've had guys do knees and then proceeded to give them fitness tests on the side? Doedee was doing run throughs and Murray was doing a hopping test, like seriously what's going on there? Feels like every other team's doctors almost immediately diagnose an ACL. I actually joked during the game that it was a bad sign that they were giving Murray that hopping test...

Also, a question for SANFL watchers: how have Borlase and Keane been tracking? I know Borlase was reportedly somewhat close to selection the other week but haven't heard a ton about Keane. Could we maybe have another look at Himmelberg down there?

 

[Burtonsgottago]

P

Can this week get any worse

Port lost

 

[Burtonsgottago]

And all our list management plans now have "KPD" as a priority.

Let’s see what Keane can do

 

[rabidcrow]

Yep

Harry would already be a done deal. Don’t reckon we can get in on it this late (assuming we aren’t in already)

****ing hell.

Terrible news. Poor lad had just established himself and now this.

Now we have to rely on Butts who is trash.

One thing to muddle through a week or two with just 1 KPD - we got to look at about half or more of next season without. Expect Keane will get a gig this week

Tex Smith Dodee twice Sloane Muarry who else?

 

[rocket18]

That really sucks, he has been one of the shining lights this season.

 

[BunjiMac]

Whatever happens do not recruit a KPD with our first round pick.

Murray is compelling evidence that you can find KPDs from elsewhere.

logic would say that
