Injury Walsh's Injury Updates

[regpies]

Think Steele admitted some players had mentioned it to him. With drier summers we can expect that it will keep getting harder unless something is done, I'd say. Having said that, it seems like a bit of an overblown story. Doing a hammy at training can also mean the "loads" are off, or the drills are too demanding, etc.

It’s not difficult to soften the ground, I assume we have a groundskeeper.

Golf courses punch holes (coring) about 1cm wide into greens twice a year so they don’t become too hard. Or they punch smaller thick nail sized holes.

If our ground is hard surely it wouldn’t be hard to get a hold of one of these golf course turf punchers and run it over the grass then give it a decent water.

Might be a Question who is NOT Injured at the Moment

He looked a bit - lame? - at times in the second half.

Would Explain his Down Game and Why Nankervis got away from him late in the Game

Guess Cox be the Number 1 Ruckman and I guess McLarty to back him up.

Big Ask vs Martin

Asking too much of players to place twice in five days.

AFLPA really should not be Happy with that

But hasn't Ben taught us that the essence of Ben lives in us all? That we are Ben, Ben is all of us? Maybe I just wasn't listening properly...

I know I am like a dog with a bone but the commentary from the media (despite being kind in a patronizing way to the Pies) infuriates me with their failure to acknowledge the bleeding obvious. I have heard John Ralph, Sam Landsberger, Terry Wallace and Kevin Bartlett rave about Richmond's amazing depth without mentioning the fact they have every player on their list ready and available bar Rioli who will be up and about in 2 weeks. If we had the same state of fitness at our club our depth would look incredible. We would have the likes of Greenwood, Blair, Fasolo, Thomas, Brown, Goldsack, Crocker, Appleby, Mayne, Wills, Daicos, Broomhead all ready to step in should a small defender, midfielder or forward happen to cop an injury. It is so amateurish to choose to ignore this simple fact. Despite the harping from some Pie supporters about injuries being a weak excuse, I believe your season rises and falls on injuries more than any other factor. Richmond simply don't get them and in particular their last two years have basically seen the same squad play together week in and week out for nearly one and a half seasons. Then the media has the temerity to marvel at their cohesion and machine like understanding of their gameplan. We have had to change our set up so often the past few seasons it's a wonder all of the players know each others' names. It is simply a fact and the lack of acknowledgement drives me crazy.

Geelong and the Dogs in particular have copped terrible runs again this year. I will acknowledge Richmond as a top side when they face some true adversity.

Lorem ipsum ...

Yeah, I agree with you. The modern commentator seems to know stuff all about the teams and players. To be fair, there are over 800 odd players, so that’s a lot to know! I wonder why they haven’t evolved to having commentators that specialise in a team, and their coverage is directed towards that supporter base.

The AFLW watchers amongst us are used to even worse ... often they simply say “the Collingwood player kicks to to the next Collingwood player” and don’t even know their names.

From a high of smashing the crows at the Adelaide oval to the lows of being done at the Gabba...oh boy I really hope the boys pull through

I'd be surprised if Aish is back within ten weeks...
