Training Pre-season Training 2017

[Abed]

Tunbridge has hurt his knee in a contested drill

Trainers are assessing him now but it didn't look good

Surely his time is up if it's an ACL.

 

[WCErevival]

Imagine the money we would save without Tunbridges medical bills

Any word?

 

[Biggie]

Damn, not good.

 

[Keys]

Any word?

No

Was with the trainers for a while then disappeared

I guess we'll find out in due course. So sometime around February the club will provide an update

Relax everybody, they found Cole

Walking laps with Lycett and breaking into intermittent light jogs

No brace or strapping on Scotts knee either which I take as a good sign

Thank f***

As sad as it is for the bloke it's not really a surprise, he's got to be one of the most injury prone players going around

Damn poor guy if its bad. Wish he could just get a decent crack at it

 

[Suma Magic]

Hope Tunbridge hasn't done an ACL. He may be depth but I think he could definitely be in line to contribute in some way next year.

No strapping on Scottie is a good sign but I'd prefer that it was on as a precaution..

Well if it's a bad knee injury that's curtains for Tunners

Be a shame if he has done his knee. From the club's point of view it doesn't impact too much as you can't miss someone you really never had. He simply hasn't been either available or has just no performed well enough to be a consistent starter. Still, I guess everyone thought there was potential if he ever got it together. You'd have to feel for the guy.

They'll give him another couple of years to prove himself

Ugh that sucks so much

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

Scans have confirmed that powerful West Coast Eagles utility Simon Tunbridge ruptured his left anterior cruciate ligament at training on Monday.

Tunbridge fell awkwardly when changing direction in a training drill, going to ground and immediately clutching his left knee.

He will require a knee reconstruction and the club and Simon will now discuss the best path forward with surgeons.

Tunbridge has played 10 games for West Coast since joining the Eagles via the 2012 Rookie Draft.

Damn. Almost-certainly career-ending

• it's a pity Tunbridge can't stay fit/has no football brain because he's an absolute bull. Really powerful body that would be ideal for crashing through packs

He knows the script, doesn't he?

I feel like my sponsorship has not been the fresh start that Tunbridge needed

Thought I would check in for a score update but it seems the thread is just being derailed by injuries, brownlow predictions, early/retirement ages cross referenced with height/weight/age differentials, Masto doing his usual block demolitions etc etc.

Hope Tunners is fine and they are just being cautious.
Vardy looks impressive from what I have seen of him. Beast. Could be the gun standout of this pre-season recruiting even including Samich.

 

[Spoon_Man]

That's seriously the fastest reporting in the club's history!

Well it is Tunners. They probably had the story ready to go months ago
