Injury SJOGHCIU - Offseason Edition

[CountryLad]

It’s training methods, preparation, injury management, facilities and luck all come into it. This season isn’t the worst for it to happen but it can’t keep happening long term. For the club to put its head in the sand and say it’s bad luck would be ridiculous. The whole S&C program should be reviewed.

Surely most of it is luck.

I mean apart from our cooked vets who are going to always be vulnerable to soft tissue injuries, the rest are mostly impact injuries which is just luck…..

Hard to prevent broken ankles and busted throats and broken spleen’s and twisted knees and ankles caught under opposition players and concussions.

Outside of that Ryan was a soft tissue but very unusual in that marking contest.

The Eagles do keep on reviewing it they are running a complete different program this year. The hiring of Mark Kilgallon is part of addressing it.

It is disturbing that you have to point that out, numerous people have done also, but unfortunately facts don’t seem to matter

Also, the premise that a complete change in program will take more than one preseason to fully take effect. The injuries we have, sans Shuey and Yeo (who have a history of them) and Gov are not soft-tissue ones, but rather unfortunate collision style ones. It seems a mix of bad luck, some more injury prone older players yes, possibly training/playing ground related.

I’d imagine further reviews would be taking place and more changes made if necessary. Our rebuild will definitely be hastened again, zero chance of a bounce out of the bottom four now, time to maximise our draft hand and a further heavy “prune” of the list at seasons end.

I'm not in the least bit disturbed by pointing out that a review was done and changes have been made. I was replying to someone who said a review needed to happen. This is a very strange language.

Our training ground must be cursed

It’s human nature to want to blame something or someone for things going pear shaped. That said, some of the takes in here by some are laughably lacking in substance.

The Hewett injury is probably the most frustrating of the lot. Fingers crossed we see him in the second half of the year.

 

[bzparkes]

Can't be accused of tanking if you have no players left to play

 

[new breed]

Hewett walked out to three quarter team address so cant be too bad ......in a moonboot after the game so hopefully only a month out with injury please .

Which injured players will possibly be available next week? Hurn (managed not injured), Sheed, Jamieson … that might be it?

Don’t know about Winder yet obviously and Baker might be getting close, not that he’ll move the needle much.

The good news is that the Beagles play the day after the AFL side, so if they fly straight back from Adelaide all the emergencies could play WAFL.

Sheed injury probably another two weeks hasn't heeled completely yet .

Hurn the only certainty

Shuey and Jamieson possibles

Sheed if his throat settles down sooner than anticipated

Winder and Hewett we don’t know the extent of their respective injuries but I wouldn’t be hopeful

 

[SumaGodCoach]

Are we staying in Adelaide for the week or flying back to Perth? Because it would be kinda weird for Hurn to forego a trip to Adelaide only to take a trip to Adelaide the following week if we are setting up camp.

We’re flying home rather than stay in Adelaide

What can you do except laugh at this point. And then cry a little.

Injury rate should regress to the mean eventually. Just need to make the best of it in the meantime. Once again we'll be exposing more of our list to AFL footy than we would otherwise. And we'll get access to higher draft picks than we would otherwise also.

Biggest downer for me is how it screws over the Beagles. But then again, most of the Beagles who aren't injured will get AFL time instead.

Or maybe our S&C are useless?

Are you suggesting some of these injuries might not be real?

No ice or anything after the game, nothing visible. Possible head knock?

Richest club in the land. Can't afford a decent medical team

 

[Mop]

Shock ****ing horror re: Yeo.

I’m no medico but watching him train it was obvious he wasn’t right two weeks ago!

 

[Keys]

Before we bury the medical team does anyone know what the issue with Yeo actually is?

Must just be bad luck

Not sure. Someone said there was no signs of ice etc on hamstrings/calves. Possible head knock maybe.

I’m sure those who took a “break” after the first half will be here soon enough and we will be hearing all about it
