Injury SJOGHCIU - Offseason Edition

[Farang83150]

Probably owed Nisbett $5 for a coffee 2 weeks ago and Trev had to take matters into his own hands.

 

[Hook461123]

I’m numb to it atm. Everyday seems to be a new injury. It’s almost expected at this point.
Just please not *** (don’t want to say a name as it might jinx it) after talks of players being rested.

West Coast add TWO more players to injury ward

Another West Coast key defender has suffered an injury blow and could spend an extended stint on the sidelines amid two fresh medical concerns.

www.perthnow.com.au

Youngster Harry Edwards has been withdrawn from the Eagles’ emergency list for Sunday’s clash with Geelong after suffering a wrist injury at training. “Edwards injured his wrist at training, and because of persistent swelling in the area, the club opted to have it scanned late yesterday, which subsequently revealed a small fracture. He has been replaced in the squad by young defender Rhett Bazzo.”

West Coast also revealed a double blow with small forward Isiah Winder withdrawn from Saturday’s WAFL encounter with reigning premiers West Perth with a knee complaint. “The Eagles have also been forced to withdraw midfielder/forward Isiah Winder from today’s WAFL Eagles team because of a knee injury,” the statement said. “He reported soreness in his left knee post training on Thursday, and the club will continue to investigate the issue and the club will have more clarity early next week.”

Hamstring 1-2 weeks (Down from 2-3 weeks)
10• Callum Jamieson Ankle 1-2 weeks (No change)
11. Dom Sheed throat 1-2 weeks (up from test)
So maybe 6 first 22 out in a team that can't really afford to lose any first 22 players.

 

[WCE_Phill]

This is beyond a joke, needs to be an investigation into extent if injuries

 

[Godfather32]

Probably owed Nisbett $5 for a coffee 2 weeks ago and Trev had to take matters into his own hands.

A debt is a debt, he's lucky a broken arm isn't all he got

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Good thing we dropped Hewett to the Beagles for development.

He'd be much better in the seniors. Burgiel might need an early taste as well.

 

[WCErevival]

We seem to get a lot of training injuries now. Either its MRP or we are going way too hard out there.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

According to WAFL stream - Hewett hurt his ankle in the first minute of the game.

 

[Nuffington Post]

Yep he has

[Carbine Chaos]

Shouldn’t have even been playing this match.

 

[bUCKET__]

Whomever is in charge of ankles at the club needs to be sacked.

 

[amazingjoshy]

More bad luck

This aged well

 

[Kapowie1]

Get Fycked. We are quickly losing any motivation for this season especially now the kids are getting injured too. Over it

Wasn’t there some silly probably untrue rumour going around here that apparently the physio team don’t strap the players ankles for some reason??

The ankle coach, probably.

 

[new breed]

Not tanking but firm favourites for Harley WC .

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

So with Hewett's ankle that makes it 12 injured. With a senior game and half an annhilation in the WAFL to go.

 

[Keys]

Definitely just bad luck again

More bad luck

What would you call it then?

Not every injury is bad luck but the vast majority since the derby carnage have been. Including that game :

Ryan - Hamstring after landing on his head
Sheed - Fractured throat at training
Hewett - Ankle injury
Shuey - Hamstring
Cripps - broken ankle
Chesser - Knee injury
McGovern- Hamstring (was as fit as he’s ever been)
Winder - knee injury
Witherden - concussion (has now recovered)
Cole - stress related injury on previously injured ankle
Edwards - fractured wrist

That’s 11 injuries in the space of a fortnight at least 7 of which are contact/collision related

Of the other 4 Shuey can’t be considered bad luck. McGovern maybe/maybe not. Winder and Cole we don’t know enough about either to say either way

From the players still unavailable from prior to the derby, both Jamieson and Williams were collision injuries. Naitanui, we’ll that’s just how it is and not necessarily bad luck

Collision injuries account for at least 9 of our 14 outs. That’s bad luck when you consider that 3 others could also be considered unlucky

So yeah, it’s bad luck

I mean, you allude to it yourself in the post but then get all defensive. Injuries to injury prone older players isn't bad luck. The crazy amount of lower leg injuries to often the same players (Cole/Chesser) isn't bad luck.

I'm not sure why it's so taboo to say so

 

[Bestbird]

Then you look at Brisbane. 1 player injured.

 

[Ishmael_]

Maybe Gov needs to get sloppy again.

He shreds up and now he's constantly cooked. Maybe, those knobbly knees need some protection. Let the man eat and run the bare minimum!

Because saying there isn’t a significant amount of bad luck involved in our injury run is patently false

I literally spelt out how 9/14 were bad luck - the injuries to McGovern, Naitanui, Cole, Shuey and Winder weren’t included in that 9

Cripps is older but wasn’t injury prone and his ankle break had zero to do with his age

Chesser’s leg got caught and twisted underneath him so I’m not sure how that isn’t bad luck. Even if you want to claim otherwise it still leaves over half of the injuries being collision related and nothing other than bad luck

I mean it’s easy to pot the club at the moment given our W/L record but at least consider that there are genuinely things contributing to our woes that are outside the club’s control
