[TheGrizz]

I wouldn’t eat that with a ten-foot pole!

Probably because that would be rather difficult...

 

[2006_Eagles]

Will miss atleast a month I’m hearing from people close to him

Who did you hear this from?

 

[Donakebab]

Crutches and moon boot at the airport this morning, but hopefully more so precautionary measures before scans show what the actual damage is.

 

[Andronicus]

Who did you hear this from?

Dean Margetts, but he said it before the game.

 

[Lance Uppercut]

When has a moonboot ever been precautionary?

s**t *

We've had a bad run with our debutants and newbies getting injured after like 2 games of AFL whilst playing good footy.
So far all of Ridley, Redman, Guelfi and Mutch have all played a couple of games then got injured to lose their spot and have to return via VFL. Only Guelfi managed to regain his spot within a few weeks. The annoying part is that none of them actually played a bad game at AFL level and they all would have been good chances to stay in the team otherwise.

Ridley's last game wasn't great.

When has a moonboot ever been precautionary?

s**t ****

For the last few years, 5 - 10 at a guess. For the foot equivalent of Treloar's hammies: could be a bruise, could be a fracture until we've had the scans to be sure chuck the moon boot on to protect it.

Also was tempted to leave in my typo of "until we've had the cans" taking medical treatment back 30 years

You can sorta add Begley to that list...

Ridley's last game wasn't great.

No one had a good game against Richmond that night eth. Very harsh.

I know that but like he wasn't great. It looked like he needed a spell in the two's.

 

[Great8]

Who did you hear this from?

I can’t say and I won’t go into detail except to say he is concerned that his season might almost be over

 

[Haychh]

8 weeks..... fuuuuuuuuuuuuuccccckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

 

[Nuggs Bunny]

Great8 is Mason Redman confirmed

 

[bjisgod9]

8 weeks, terrible result, now imagining Francis in the seniors for 8 weeks....oh hang on....its getting hot in here

 

[eth-dog]

8 weeks? Just in time for VFL finals

[TheGrizz]

Feel gutted for the kid. Although i am sure its not half as bad as he will be right now.
Works his backside off to break into the team,
He then does so and performs well but then gets injured before he can establish himself in the team.

Hope we extend him because he looks like a real find.

[Seagrave_Holmes]

8 weeks? Double whatever number the club gives. Should be back on the track for the start of preseason in October.

 

[astrowizzle]

Feel really bad for him.worked his way in and looked like a lock in for the foreseeable future.

 

[DERO]

So what is the injury?

 

[Lore]

So what is the injury?

"the anterior portion of his syndesmosis"

Which I think is a fancy term for his ankle.

I bet someone feels validated somewhere right now.

 

[Zach Package]

That's a better than expected result given some of the other armchair diagnoses I've heard.

I'm still very angry at this though
