Darcy moore hamstring :(

[The Royal Sampler]

I never said every ACL is the fault of the club, obviously some (mainly the collision ones) are unavoidable.

Conversely if you think all the ACL's we've had are 100% bad luck and never anyone's fault maybe you are the naive one.

Anyway this VFL game and injury have put me in a terrible mood.. maybe I'll take you up on that Bex offer.

There is evidence to suggest that if there is a large enough disparity between your quad strength and your hamstring strength, you are more prone to ACL injury. This is well known in AFL circles and I'd be shocked if Collingwood sent Scharenberg out there without having met the benchmark ratio, but much beyond that there's a lot of speculation and not a lot of evidence.

Thought I would also mention, because I have a friendly face and like chatting to opposition supporters, amazing the number of people that said to me that we have a 'real' player in Moore. Always nice to hear the envy in their voice.

Not sure why some people are saying Moore played well. Thought he did some nice spoils but other than that he hardly touched the ball. Of course based on other games and reports he sounds like he will be very good but he did nothing today.

Put him down

I don't even.

 

[Jelly Bean]

You would have to question first and second year players getting soft tissue injuries. Are we pushing too hard too early?

He did miss a large chunk pf preseason lets not forget because of his toe... So his volume wouldn't have been high.

 

[Jelly Bean]

One season ending hamstring injury to Freeman was just bad luck.

A second season ending hamstring injury to Marsh was just really bad luck.

But if this ends up another season ending hamstring injury, the 3rd in little over a year then it would seem more than really really bad luck.

Never seen anything like it in regards to hamstring injuries at the pies.

You're missing a couple each to Sinkers and Young...

Did my first hammy at 29 playing footy. Was chasing, sidestepped to avoid a shepeherd, went to take off again and twanged it. Would have done the same thing many times but on this occasion the hammy didn't like it. s**t happens.
The prophets of doom need to go outside and check out some of the formations in the clouds. Look closely enough and you'll see Satan pointing a finger at Victoria Park.
FFS!

Minor set back in what will hopefully prove to be be a very decorated career.

He didn't die, he did his hammy!, he'll come back from it

 

[Smokeyr67]

If it is a season ending hammy (and I for one won't be panicking about that until he's had scans) then I expect him to be back next year with the upper body strength of 3 lowlands gorilla's!

Never said he played well, re-read my posts.

The sack Davoren posts are always laughable. Yeah its his fault in the stands that a hamstring somehow popped. Because its been happening to everyone on our list of course....

Hey Pera you forgot Davoren was at fault for his toe injury also!

One more strike with Moore and he must be sacked

You said other people were praising him. Not sure why they would bother to do that to a stranger unless they thought he played well.

 

[Brad Goodman]

Put him down

Davoren? Bit harsh. Sack him for sure but we don't need to murder him too.

Yeah he was sitting in the stands, but worked with the players every day for months prior. Our record with injury, particularly to young players is poor since he joined the club.

 

[RuFiO]

sorry bro

WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN US OH GREAT ONE?!

 

[Black_White]

6 weeks?
This is Collingwood.
Could be career ending. But Moore likely will be the perfect excuse to warehouse him for 2016.
I'm happy to slow burn him.

 

[Good_Old]

My girlfriend has a cold at the moment. If I see DeLorean, gee I tell ya' what!!!

 

[TradeDraft]

Hopefully he took some bone with it so we can screw it back on.

Our injury record is a the laughing stock of the league.

Is it Donavorn or is Buckley Cursed as a Coach?

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Some kind of gypsy curse.

 

[TradeDraft]

Top sides generally don't play their youngsters in the first few years anyway. Calm down, injuries happen, especially youngsters while they're increasing their loads to afl level

Still have Scar Tissues and this hopefully does not happen more Often

 

[TradeDraft]

Darcy Moore and about a minute later, school mate Jason Ashby looked also to do his hamstring.

Unlucky.

Takes bit of Excitement away from Winning Yesterday. He is something Special and don’t want him to become Injury Prone

 

[TradeDraft]

We're 3-1 without Moore so why the panic?

He is a Very Special Talent and we don’t want to lose him for a whole F**KING Season

 

[Maggie5]

You said other people were praising him. Not sure why they would bother to do that to a stranger unless they thought he played well.

Maybe they have followed his career, maybe they see potential, maybe just the little things he did, maybe they way he positions himself on the field, maybe the ways he speaks when interviewed.
Maybe just like when I first saw Daicos and others play when I might have said, gee he will be good.
Get a life and take a deep breath.

 

[TradeDraft]

if I remember correctly did he have hamstring problems before?

Nope - Had Hip Issues
