List Mgmt. Welcome Elijah Hewett (Pick 14, 2022 National Draft)

[bzparkes]

What, so that when he is rusty people can lay into him because he isn’t the immediate messiah to makes all problems go away?

 

[Wet Toast Rule]

If fit Elijah just needs to play.
He will develop much faster at afl level then he would running around the WAFL.
If not on managed minutes, that is.
I can imagine him being used as a sub initially for a game or two give he would be lower on the pecking order for midfield / cbd minutes.

Curiously in the interview Hewey said he'd like to be in Harley's body for a day

Great to see our young mids bonding like this! I'm pretty sure Harley is a top though.

Hewett pulled up sore from training late last week, and after scans was found to have low-level bone stress in his foot. A different region to his initial injury according to Inness. He is getting taken off legs for another "couple of weeks", but on the website he is listed as season. This news sucks.

To solve the issue, remove all his bones!

Young Hewett is off to Dubai to see specialist. My friend was next to him on the flight last night.

Given the success of HEdwards, Gov and Yeo. Very goood news

Not sure if it's the greatest sign from my point of view, obviously means this is something far more serious.

 

[Boohemian]

It’s a good sign that they’re not ****ing around. Ala Yeo and his injury recovery.

 

[Shifty1]

I wonder if he had to pay for half the trip?

Should have put Luke Shuey on the plane with him.....could do with him exploding from the CBDs, going back to support the defence, being good on both sides of his body, pressuring opposition players, hitting leading forwards on the title etc....in 2025!

Good to hear he seeing worlds best.

If anyone googles siesmoids, it tells you post bone removal surgery often has new complications as the foot and muscles adapt.

So for me, not unexpected, just hope he fully recovers in time.

 

[MerryHell]

I am more worried about Longy. Opting for PCL surgery so early, they better be sure there won't be post surgery complications, rather than try and let it heal naturally.

The specialist that they saw was in Qatar.

Of course, he could be transferring via Dubai to Doha...
