Foot surgery would be the last option for Darling

Any good WA kids next draft

 

[Eastern Rangers]

Simpson will put out the team which will have the best chance of winning . Expect hill and McGinnity to be called up first

You've confused competing with winning.

 

[Woobla Stainz]

I'm hearing Hutchys got lots of problems. Don't expect much from him this year. On the flip side Selwood should play R1 if not before.

Was chatting to his brother at the gym the other day, he lives with Hutch. I asked about his injures and if he needed surgery, said no just some niggles and soreness that he is working through.

You can compete and not win, but you cannot win without competing.

The tents are being prepared, as we speak.

 

[The Passenger]

Foot injuries can be a bitch.

Don't want to, but it's impossible not to think of Matt Egan.

Casual question... how long were you there for?

Isn't it a hot spot/stress fracture or was I imagining that?

 

[Avalor]

Casual question... how long were you there for?

45 minutes maybe.

 

[Eaglemaniac]

45 minutes maybe.

The perfect amount of time. You must be huge now.

 

[Quinz]

I have that same problem with George Clooney. It's caused me some difficulties in the past.

 

[Euro Star]

I can't help but wonder if Darlings Euro holiday had something to do with it. No matter how hard you try it's impossible not to do a lot of walking when on holiday. The best thing for fractures is to keep off them so the bone can knit back together.

Pity about that - I can see the need to have some mix of maturity and experience along side the youngsters but Hill would give me limited comfort from what I saw last year (both Eagles and EP) while I cannot see how McGinnity would inject any confidence into our forward line apart from a really strong defensive small forward and Cripps is a better option.

Yep was thinking the same thing and sounds like the situation with Nic Nat in 2012 when he went to the US when he should have been home resting up the groin.

If he does have to go in for surgery i do hope he is made to be 100% and not a single less if he is to even play this year. Time for Tunbridge to step up and time for us to give games to Mcinnes and even a few to Lamb.

I reckon we put him in for surgery now and make him bust his ass in recovery so he can make a comeback in a meaningless final round match with no consequences.

 

[WCErevival]

Just play him in the moon boot

 

[Xsess]

Looks like I'll have to find something to do this winter that will save me from having to retrieve a stubbie out of the flatscreen.

Was mentioned on the rumor board that Simpson mentioned on radio today he hopes to have Darling back by round 6.

Hoping that is just him fitting in a few months of conditioning and not resting up.

Why was it mentioned on the rumiurs board if it game from the coaches mouth? Surely Afl.com.aun would be all over it by now. They were when Simpson said he hadn't hd a minute of pre season

Well it was a Port fan who was listening into an interview on Adelaide Radio with Simpson and i dare say they asked him about Darling.

Even then it would have been all over the news by now....

Hopefully there isn't much to it, we need him available ASAP

 

[Chris_6678]

In the interview he said they were being conservitive with Darling and should be ready by round 5. Scooter is back in full training and will play round 1. Nic nat is ready this week but might be held back one more week.
