Tall utility Salter - considered lucky to have retained his spot on the Power's list after failing to play an AFL game last season - has felt pain in his "good" foot and the club is concerned he has stress fractures.

Praying that Boaks and Wingards aren't too bad or else we're stuffed

 

[davesnothere]

You see Achilles and you have no problems with Wingard having a break...we will get by..

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

Salter needs to have a big year this year. Last chance

[Powerade 08]

So Boak is going to have problems again? 4 or 5 years in a row he has gone into the season carrying something?

Only chance*

Chocco and Primus didn't give him one.

 

[Hong-Kong Phooey]

I wouldn't worry about boak. It's all about being in tip top shape come round 1

Other then chatting to him about the injury at the family day, he wasnt in NT.

i am curious to see if we play him forward this year ..
(due to all the defenders we got in the draft / trade period)

 

[finbarr]

Not worried about Boak and Wingard. If Chad had made the final cut in the All-Stars game i bet he'd have played. Club probably just wanted to rest him up and slightly made up the injury excuse so as not to piss the fans off on Friday. Same with Boak. They've had a big pre-season.

haha i take your word then! was the injury of concern? or just didnt play out of precaution?

 

[Doctor Feel]

Another article came out saying his career is over should it be a foot fracture.

Game, set, match I would think. Regardless.

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

Sad to say but he will never play again for the Power: http://www.adelaidenow.com.au/sport...long-injury-list/story-e6freck3-1226574922727

The article this morning about Salts having possible stress fractures in his "good" foot does not bode well.

 

[elsler]

well theres the LTI so they can elevate Kane mitchell now

 

[Malibu#27]

well theres the LTI so they can elevate Kane mitchell now

As sad as it sounds, that was the first thought that crossed my mind too.

 

[Honeyboy Wilson]

Yup, saw Salts on crutches in the Alberton sidestreets. No good.

It's a crying shame, but good luck to him. It'll take a lot of mental strength to go through it all again.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Unfortunate for Salts, but can somebody please explain to me why we kept him but delisted Jacob Surjan?

Surjan himself admitted his body wasn't up to the AFL.

Surjan himself admitted his body wasn't up to the AFL.

And Salter's is? I haven't looked it up, but I'd be shocked if he's played more games of Aussie Rules (either AFL or SANFL level) than he's missed through injury since he's been on our list.

The two year contract he was apparently given at the end of 2011 is right up there with Rohde's biggest, most obvious mistakes. Said it at the time and I'll say it again now.

Don't get me wrong, I agree. However comparing him to the delisting of Surjan is unfair. We probably should have dropped both of them.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing and all that.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Hindsight is a wonderful thing and all that.

You don't need hindsight to say his 2 year contract was a bad idea. It was clearly a bad idea at the time.

Surjan was never that good and has his share of injury problems. Nothing to do with Salter or the decision to retain any other fringe player. People might say this to you 100x but you will still question the decision, so why keep asking
