if he dislocated his shoulder you don't need to be a genius to know that there's a risk of it popping out again at any point this season
He's so important to us, think they'll try and nurse him through the season until we can't.

that's what I see happening, but knowing our luck
We aren't contending for anything. Not even the wooden spoon.
Send him for surgery and don't waste the time this year.
This gives him a lot longer to recover for next year to be cherry ripe.
Also gives us a chance to blood Hutchinson and get other forwards playing to see what they offer.
Put him on ice for North at least imo
We will want Jake to make the most of his form, hes only had a couple of months as the main guy.
If hes ok to play id get him in, nurse him through a few weeks, see how he goes and if hes not gonna get consistent footy then cut him off.
Whatever happens we have to make sure his last game for the season gives him enough time to recover comfortably before preseason.
He might not even need surgery.
Would be foolish to end his season now without seeing how he goes.
Plenty of players with bad shoulders can keep playing on.
All depends on the severity.

Just a fan
Faaark - I genuinely haven't wanted an individual award more for any of our players ever than Waterman winning the Coleman/becoming AA.
He could have done it too. Would have been so, so awesome.

Hall of Famer
Schoey was saying they'd play him, but if it needs surgery that it would be a 12 week recovery period. Schoey said he's had the surgery before.
So I'd say Waterman is playing.
So I'd say Waterman is playing.
I doubt Jake goes for that. If he maintains this form and finishes top 5 in the Coleman (hell, maybe even wins the thing), then he can Immediately turn around negotiate a very big increase to his contract (both on term and overall dollars). He probably goes from mid rung pay to top 10%-20% in club. That could be worth well over $1M to him. Well worth risking a shoulder op.
With the way that Waterman is clunking everything without fail right now, does he even need two healthy shoulders?
Every week is progress, nervous to hear any news of a set back.
Cannot wait for the day we watch a midfield of Reid, Ginbey, Hewett, Culley and Pick 3, replacing Sheed and Gaff (thanks and all the best lads).
Sheed has left his legacy at WC for sure , still offers some experience which is handy . Gaff also been an AA player and a star player for 4-5 years .
New midfield model is being established , twelve months time could be a very different midfield .
At least until we get Allan back...
Nah Hewett is doing run throughs and Oscar doing a one on one on the Eagles X(twitter) feed.

No TK sucks. Waterman back this week ideally, will be bloody hard to win any games (even lolnorf) without Reid, TK, Waterman, Allen, Hunt.
Big fan of the website saying Oscar Allen has yet to play this year when he is our captain and led the boys out in Round 1.
Likely Essendon return:
Luke Edwards
Oscar Allen
Tim Kelly
Jayden Hunt
(2-3 weeks is a worry that they can’t say with confidence, given the bye).
We’ll see you when we see you:
Rhett Bazzo Groin 3-5 weeks
Elijah Hewett Foot 5-7 weeks
Noah Long Knee Season
