Prismall suffering the same hamstring issues as Winders

 

[Kong]

OP updated.

 

[Donakebab]

Prismall isn't exactly suffering the same hammy problems. Winders completely did his, Pris is suffering tightness so they club is being extremely cautious.

 

[daffo]

Yeppo.
Winderlich - torn hammy
Prismall - tightness in hammy.

 

[George Washington]

Agree.
Winderlich has had a full hamstring tear, whereas Prismall is just suffering some hamstring tightness.

 

[Duckworth]

Prismal is on the LTI list, can someone enlighten me as to why Winderlich isn't there also?

 

[yaco55]

I am certain that Winderlich would have been on the LTI list, if EFC wanted to upgrade a rookie.

 

[Lord Nicholson]

Winderlich played NAB. It's been sporadic hamstring woes since then, so they weren't going to put him on the LTI in case it eased. It hasn't, but them's the breaks. I don't think you'd ever put someone on the LTI for a hammy, would you? Unless it was an astronomical tear.

 

[daffo]

Lloyd? Torn hammy off bone. He would of been put on the LTIL

 

[THECHIEFTON]

Zaka will be out for 5 weeks. That sucks. He is so important to us.

Has anyone got any updates on Zaharakis??

 

[Kong]

Probably still another 4 or 5 weeks away.

 

[daffo]

On the Sunday Footy show they said that Monfries is 3-4 weeks away, meaning he'll miss 4-5 (already missed the Dogs game).

 

[Mrs Mercuri]

Licha is due back with Bendigo either this week or next...

What is the news on Davis, O'Brien, Pears and McVeigh?? Have been injured but never on the clubs official list...

 

[Ridda93]

Has anyone got any updates on Zaharakis??

Mark McVeigh Knee 1 week

• Mark sustained a knee injury and is in the final stages of completing his recovery regime. He is likely to make a return in the next week.

Angus Monfries Hamstring Unavailable

• Angus sustained a hamstring tear during Essendon's victory over Fremantle. He is likely to be sidelined for the next two weeks and will be closely monitored by the medical staff.

David Zaharakis Quad Unavailable

• David injured his quad at training and is undergoing rehabilitation. He is likely to return in the next two to three weeks but will be closely monitored by the medical department.

Brent Prismall Hamstring Unavailable

• Brent is progressing well after surgery on his ruptured anterior cruciate ligament but is suffering from hamstring tightness. He has been placed on the club's long-term injury list.

 

[Kong]

So add on 2-3 weeks to Monfries and Zaka and we've got an idea.

Plus Davis, who seemingly no longer exists.

 

[The Dustbin]

In more good news for the Bombers veteran Mark McVeigh is just a week away from getting back out on the field.

“It has been a longer rehab period for Mark, he will miss this week but be available for the week after,” Hamilton said. “He has had his injury problems but they are really trying to build up his fitness base again to make sure that when he does come back he is ready to play and perform.”

I tweeted Davis on the 23/6. He said he was a couple of weeks away so I reckon if he is not back this week, then probably the week after...

I know it has been done to death but it is so annoying that the club are not more transparent on the injury front.

Davis 1-2 weeks
McVeigh 1 week
Monfries 2 weeks
Zaka 2-3 weeks
Pris?
Licka back this week
Pears back this week? Is he injured?
Long?
Hunter?

I think that covers all players...?

You would assume that Monfries, Zaka and Licka are missing from out best 22. Obviously question mark on Licka playing senior footy this year.

 

[daffo]

I may of been dreaming but I'm sure I read somewhere that there was a bit of a setback with Zaka and he'll still be 6 weeks away from now. I looked all morning and can't find anything so I'm hoping it was a dream.

 

[Childish Gambino]

Not a dream.

That means that if Prismall is on the LTI list we can upgrade a rookie.

 

[Lord Nicholson]

Prismall's back within a fortnight, no?

At any rate, we don't have the KPP backup on the rookie list that would have been handy around about now.

 

[Big Blow Hard]

Not that I would consider him a chance, but is Steinberg injured?

 

[Lord Nicholson]

Recovering from some sort of foot decapitation.

I assume that's the ailment because the club gives us nothing.
