Injury 2015 general injury updates - for specific injuries, refer to specific injury thread

[Munich]

Forgive my ignorance, but where am I supposed to have read your post saying Duncan is 2 weeks away?

Wasn't mine, Ive read it from four of five different people in various threads on here.

Obviously people are missing it every time someone mentions it though.

This was said the night of and the following day he injured himself.

Am I the only person that heard it??

Nope.

They said he just failed to get up for the Hawthorn game. He was a 'test' against St Kilda and is still a 'test' at least until the injury list gets updated tomorrow. I'm betting he'll be a test again.

Not sure what you're reading but I can't really be bothered trawling through these threads to find the 3 week thing.

Anyway, what will be will be.

We should be right against the filth without him.

Well at the very least, he's "In the Mix" according to the club:

Mitch Duncan
The star midfielder has missed the Cats’ past two games due to a calf problem. He will be given every chance to prove his fitness on the training track this week.

And last week...

MITCH Duncan remains in contention to line up in Saturday night’s clash with St Kilda at Etihad Stadium.

The star midfielder withdrew from the team that played Hawthorn last weekend after suffering calf soreness.

But he will be given the chance to prove himself on the training track in the coming days.

“Mitch didn’t get up on the weekend,” club physio Mark Young said on nib Medical Room on Tuesday.

“He’s got a low-grade calf strain. It’s improving quickly. He’ll be a test for this weekend.”

Cool.

He won't play though so don't bother getting hopes up people.

 

[CharacterFirst]

Any news on Duncan?

How far away is he?

 

[Teriyakicat]

He's two weeks away people!!!!!!!!!!!

Do I need to put in bold????????

DUNCAN IS STILL TWO WEEKS AWAY

Damn! Too late!!

^^^^

 

[cats_09]

I thought when Duncan was initially out with the calf injury he was only meant to miss 2 to 3 weeks; so if he is apparently still 2 weeks away, does that mean that the initial injury was a 4 week injury, or should he only be 1 week away this week if he was 2 weeks away last week?

 

[Jimmy Yamazaki]

Caddy- test
Ducan - test
Delaney - testerino

 

[JUBJUB]

Delaney - testerino

One VFL game left,no point risking him

 

[OverTheTop]

Any further update on Duncan and Caddy?

Nope. We will find out at 6.25pm tonight. But Scott's comments didn't sound good for them.

Was a 3 weeker, he's missed two so far yeah?

Agreed...doubtful either will play

Sounds right - and out again. I guess whether he is a chance for next week will depend on results this round; things go our way we want him next week, but if its a crappy weekend maybe time to debut Jansen or Gore next week, or give Cowan a chance to see if he can last out a match.

Yeah no point playing him if we lose tomorrow. If we win though fingers crossed he's right.

We bloody need him

Duncan and Caddy won't play, Stanley's getting his screw removed from his foot in two weeks. No mention of Motlop

Sensible in the circumstances....

I'd like to see Cowan selected in particular.....he's obviously got something...throw him in the deep end and see if he can cut it....maybe rookie him next year to be on the safe side??

Did I miss something? I don't recall Motlop getting injured last week (although I was at the game and didn't watch the replay, so may have missed it).

Apparently he got a knock to or stained his patellar tendon during the game against Collingwood.

Apparently he got a knock to or stained his patellar tendon during the game against Collingwood.

Isn't that the permanent injury which inhibits him every now and again when it gets a knock?

 

[catempire]

Not sure it has been reported elsewhere, but Scott revealed today that Lang has an Achilles issue and Murdoch a finger tendon issue.
