Rumour Josh Kennedy facing elbow surgery

[Falco]

What? The club made $4.1m profit in 2013, was one of only six clubs to post a profit last year and are considered one of the highest-earning and highest-spending clubs in the league.

IIRC we have the most money in the bank out of all the clubs at the moment.

I'd say Collingwood, Hawthorn and possibly Richmond would be above us.

 

[DanWCE]

And we got all that money by being tight fisted with the medical dept haha

We're 4th on this list. Richmond are down in 11th. Fair point.

"5AA football. Welcome back to Adelaide Oval. It's half time and that 2nd quarter was full of drama with West Coast's Josh Kennedy losing the entire lower half of his right arm after it flew off following a spoiled mark. We cross to Macca on the boundary who's been in the Eagles rooms. Macca I guess this means Kennedy is out for the season?"
"Actually no Rowey, the Eagles medical staff located the arm behind the pie floater shed and they've blutacked it to the bloody stump. He's coming back on after half time."
"That's great news Macca. Geez those medical staff are working wonders. Eafles supporters must be relieved."

Billy Birmingham would be proud

That link says we made the biggest profit, which is the most important number. Also says we have $40m in the bank.

You would think that Don Pike would have pretty good contacts and access to top Sports injury personnel.

Port played Polec as sub on the weekend, now he's out for 8 weeks.

So it's not just us that plays injured players.

 

[Play by Numbers]

Please do it FFS.

Whoever is making the decisions to play injured players should come under serious scrutiny.

NN, Selwood and Darling have all had problems exacerbated by being played injured, or being allowed to play.

Tim Gossage on TEN Sport saying good news , Kennedy a good chance to play and avoid surgery .

Scans showed no major damage .....

Just needs to get through training tomorrow !

 

[94_Eagles]

Gossage just said scans revealed no major damage and he should line up on Sunday!

Hackdorn article. Take with a grain of salt.

What an absolute flog

Scans on the forward's injured elbow weren't conclusive..

Does he have a f***ing elbow or not!?!??

Whoever wrote that knows very little about how business success is measured

 

[lmach]

I'm starting to think they just lost the scans.

"We're confident looking at the scans that he does have an upper arm, and we believe he does have a fore arm and hand, but we're going to see how he goes at training tomorrow before deciding whether or not he has an elbow"

Conflicting ...have to wait and see .

Pure clickbait, err watchbait probably composed by Basil Flogpalis himself.

Either that or his arm actually has fallen off.

 

[Suma Magic]

Either that or his arm actually has fallen off.

Or they scanned the left arm by accident.

 

[LordHaart]

Or they're just scratching their heads because his elbow isn't at all like what they thought an elbow was meant to look like:

Nekt minnut Kennedy out for 8 weeks with 2nd degree burns because they thought that if they just followed the instructions on the box, it would reach "Al dente" perfection in 7-8 minutes.

LMFAO.

"Come and get dinner kids!"
"What are we having tonight mum? We're staaaaaarving!"
"Pasta, just like you asked Timmy"
"Yay, what kind Mum? Spirals? I love them!"
Mum picks up box
"No, says on the box they're called Elbows love. They were the ones on special at Coles."

*silence*

*sounds of unmistakable high pitched kid wailing*
