Injury The OFFICIAL Injury Updates thread - 2 weeks

[Black2Blue]

How's my man Tom Curran doing?

Was on the park for Good Friday training from what I read. Really hope the rest of the year is injury free for the lad.

It'd be nice if we got more detailed injury update about Delaney, Curran, Tazz and to a lesser extent Brown.

Delaney AND brown especially have been listed as a test for 6weeks now.

Surely Curran isnt far away from resuming. It would nearly be 12 months since he had his last batch of surgery?

Garner will play at nth ballarat this week!

^^^^^^Great news for both Taz AND us.

Kicking straight or not though, that's a bloody terribly risky ball drop.

He actually looks remarkably slim in the flesh.

Wouldn't mind a little more reassurance from swallows conference about his return. Ahhh I don't know if I can wait 4 or more weeks to find his form

You probably need to work on your patience then.

What is the go with Curran? is he actually injured? I have read reports of him kicking the footy around surely this wouldn't have been happening if he was still injured?

Is he listed there because we put him on the LTI to move Tippet onto the main list?

Someone told me 2-3 weeks ago that Wellsy had a calf issue, i called bullshit at the time, as i remember hearing Brad Scott say that Drewie had trod on his foot at at training, and he had scans which revealed nothing wrong, now i am inclined to think the calf might be the problem

Pretty sure Tippett was moved to the senior list as teams can add one player from RL to main list when the season commences. Could be wrong on this. He is in the training footage although you don't actually see him doing anything specific. I have seen him out on the ground with the trainers kicking the ball about but not actually involved in the proper sessions.

Hopefully for him he is not too far away but you can understand the medico's being especially cautious with him.

Nah, we LTI'd Curran (teams cannot just add one rookie at the start of the year btw). He's eligible to come off it now though if he happens to be right to go.

Thanks for the clarification Daz.

Wow, How good does that grass look on the oval.

Players can't complain one bit these days. I drove past the other day and those training facilities are

just outstanding !!!!

Curran is (from what ive heard) into the 3rd stage of weight bearing running, turning and ball work, just no jumping and game-style contact.

Walsh said in that interview a few weeks back that he'd be aiming to get back on the field shortly after the bye

 

[Flawed Genius]

NMFC.com.au

spoke to director of football, Geoff Walsh, about the club’s current injury list.

#8: Daniel Wells (foot)
Walsh: “Wednesday’s session is the important one for him.

“If he can’t get through a full session then he won’t be picked to play Brisbane. We’ll see how it goes and Brad (Scott) wants him to get through the full session.”

#25: Robbie Tarrant (leg)
Walsh: “He’s made a bit of a breakthrough. He’s made some promising progress in the last few sessions.

“He won’t be available in the next few weeks but we’ll monitor his pain threshold and begin to step him up as his body starts to feel better.”

#27: Taylor Garner (hamstring)
Walsh: “He’s coming along slowly but steadily. What he’s able to do this week on the track will determine how much longer he’ll be out for.

“He won’t be available this week for selection.”

#30: Tom Curran (foot)
Walsh: “He’s our longest term injury. It’s very small steps with Tom.

“If we can see him joining in a bit with training at about Round 12-13 that would be good. There’s no setbacks but because he’s had two (foot injuries) in the past and he had no base from the summer, we’ll bring him along slowly.”

#31: Cam Delaney (foot)
Walsh: “He’s one of the longer term ones. I don’t think we’ll see him back inside the month. He’s doing a bit on the track but it’s progressing slowly.”

#34: Jamie Macmillan (fibula)
Walsh: “He’s progressed to running on the Alter-G (anti-gravity treadmill). Originally it was about a six-week injury and it’s still progressing right along that timeline.

#50: Ben Brown (knee)
Walsh: “I spoke to him before the bye and he was quite confident that he would be back this week. He’ll probably be up for selection this week but if not then certainly next week.”

[roos_fanatic08]

So what is the issue with delaney's foot?

Seems my source on Garner was wrong....must have been a pretty serious hammy.

Wells wont play this week

 

[Heaps of fun]

Apart from the good news about Brown and Tarrant (and Macmillan tracking as expected) that's a pretty grim report.

Yeah seems we have a lot in the "it's taking a long time to heal" boat.
