Past #6: Taylor Garner - delisted end '21 - 49 NM games/37 NM goals - go well Garns

[Black2Blue]

Just in general though we seem to be having far too many players missing games the past few seasons. Tarrant the past few years, Garner the past 2 years, Wells the past 2 years, Grima etc .... Too me its a bit of a concern.

Have a look at the Suns, Brisbane, and Geelong injury lists and things don't look too bad down Arden Street way. I just think the endurance, physicality and intensity of the game has reached the point where players are at much higher risk of injury.

 

[LeFtBehinD]

We have literally gone from the best injury rate to the worst in the league (behind GC) within 3 years.

At least it's not a season ending two weeks

Lol basically is though.. well, he'll have no chance of playing AFL this year.

 

[HongKongRoo]

It is pretty s**t for Garner, who was just starting to string together some good performances. Nahas may get a reprieve, or will we be seeing Harps soon?

 

[King Corey]

Sucks for him, sucks for us but given the hamstring injury I'm kind of glass half full on this.

The bloke injures his thumb and you're making sucking comments. Not appropriate mate.

 

[Bigeasy]

This year shits me to tears.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

* it all.

 

[Black2Blue]

Yeah, bugger this year. No Garner, no Harper, no Daw, no fun. Time for Frank the Tank.....one early draft pick please.

I just had a look at the injury list on AFL website : http://www.afl.com.au/news/injury-news/injury-list

Hawks have a rookie i have never heard of out for the year, and Puopolo and Birchall both due for testing from minor mishaps, that is all,

 

[Mav]

It's just poo. Absolute poo.

 

[SMaturin]

Thought it was the hammy. Thumb is a pleasant surprise.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

OH FFS!

SERIOUSLY!

 

[Ohhh Errol]

Silver lining is the legs and hips get a forced reprieve. Can only be a good thing long term.

 

[Dirty_11]

F*** this s**t.

 

[Rockstar6]

I just thank the lord above he hasnt done his hammy again! Surely a thumb cant take 90+ weeks......

 

[Gasometer]

This year shits me to tears.

September 2014 seems an eternity ago....wahhhhhhhhh

Yeah, but this time last year their list was longer than ours, and included Hodge and Mitchell.

They won the flag.

The injury karma bus left Waverley Park in about August last year and has moseyed across town and set itself up down at Arden Street

This year shits me to tears.

The sweet ain't as sweet without the bitter.

 

[Bigeasy]

The sweet ain't as sweet without the bitter.

16 years of bitter is enough.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

The sweet ain't as sweet without the bitter.

Yeah, the sucking of lemons has been going on long enough.

 

[Gasometer]

16 years of bitter is enough.

19 years was pretty long. ....77 to 96

 

[SuperJustSayan]

Shattered.. In a positive (if there is one) it's not his hamstring/hip so his body is holding up. Just an impact injury

Still hoping and sure we'll see him this season if back within a month! Think he's a kid we have to stick by like we have done with Tarrant

 

[Lavy_Panther]

Unbelievable.

 

[archereleven]

Just hope its his wanking and drinking hand. Leaves him no other choice but to train his guts out

 

[Rooboy 96]

19 years was pretty long. ....77 to 96

50 years was a tad longer 1925 to 1975
