Injury The OFFICIAL Injury Updates thread - 2 weeks

[CURVE]

So CCJ only gets a week for headbutting May's fist/elbow. Seems a little light, the MRO must have been in good mood.

So Ziebell is playing with Plantar Fascia . This would explain that eventhough he is getting old he has also been playing injured yet puts in every week. Knowing what is like to have Plantar Fascia (l have had it for 18 months so far) l'm surprised at how much pain he would have to endure to play every week..l wish other players at the club had his commitment...

Jack is a warhorse.

Am I the only one who thinks there is point of getting cc back for end of the season? By the time he plays vfl how many afl games will he get? 3?

If, and it is a really big if, he recovers fully in that time frame, then another 3 games at AFL level has to be advantageous in the long term.

However I doubt he will get back this year because there are bound to be complications and when I saw the outcome - look away now if you don't want to read what's coming next - I had nightmarish memories of JWS (which have not improved seeing that he is still only 36 years old and if things had have been different, who knows he might have retired quite recently as one of our very good players or better. )

I’d almost give LDU another weeks rest to get him 100% cherry ripe

Much better to have the explosive LDU return - if giving him another week's rest helps achieve that, then so be it

I'd be putting Chom on the LTI and taking a pick in the mid-season draft. There's got to be a half-decent KPF we can find somewhere? I'm sure roos_fanatic08 would have some suggestions.

Rest him for next season then go and get a player from the MSD from having him on the LTI list...

well if you're including the Melbourne game he's played 7 so far.

so yea, that'd up his total by almost 50%

[Devington]

A few coming up in the next few weeks that we'd like to get decent looks at this year.

I like these weekly reports from Kev, and ( touch wood ) his results with our injury management/prevention program seem pretty good so far, a good appointment to the club.

Agree. Love the new updates

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Powell & Goater both back ahead of time. Good result.

Seems like they can’t get on top of Archer’s OP though, which is a bit concerning

 

[RightWingRoo]

Seems like Kev White is doing a good job so far. Players actually seem to recover from their injuries fairly quickly these days, not 2 weeks turning into 10 like the previous regime.

 

[giantroo]

Injury update coming later today.

Bull to miss a few according to Jy.
Ch 9 said LDU to miss at least 3 weeks.

Forget the seniors, at this rate, all our local VFL players will be playing for the club this week. We play Casey as well.
