Injury HFC Injury watch 2023

Still a bit surprised that Chad appears set to play (based on confident comments by club). He’s barely scraping in on form + a significant injury.

It's been hard for him to get any form when he's been mostly out of side with injuries though.
We need to give him a good spread of games before we start writing him off.

He trained fully this week and we are lacking in experience.

I kind of feel that ML's reputation has grown even further whilst injured! Particularly because of our absence of any other key forwards.

Hoping that he will burst out of the blocks, but going to keep a measured expectation! I think regardless, he will be creating contests and crashing packs - so desperately needed.

Yep I think we all need to realise even though ML has been missed he isn’t the saviour. With such an interrupted preseason he’ll likely have an inconsistent season as a result.

I’m so sick of the chad hate. So he’s hasn’t been worth what we traded for him, but to suggest he doesn’t make us significantly better is letting your annoyance with the trade obscure fact.

I look forward to him getting a bit of luck with his body. He undeniably cares and probably tries too hard at times. If he is happy with less dollars then I’d be all in on retaining post this contract.

God I’d love to be young again, I’ve forgotten what a bone overload feels like!

There are pills for that!

Just don’t take prior to a long flight.

I may or may not be speaking from experience.

That really is very small injury list of only four players and one of them is for non footy related issue (Serong).

If nothing else this year our fitness team are doing a very good job of keeping our players on the park.

And thank FK for that!

Yes the mind does boggle at how we would be going if we had a bigger injury list given we are last with such a small one!

Great to hear Jai Serong has has been cleared to play.

CJ just hasn’t looked the same this year. No where near his usual aggressive self at the contest!
