Injury 2019 Injuries

[maddog37]

Didnt see the game but a few peoplel mentioned Cavarras old side got stuck into him a lot throughout the game. Gee bit rough, i understand roughing up an ex teammate whose changed clubs but surely not one whose only left to join an AFL club.

Pretty weak effort.

 

[dogwatch]

How did he do?

Not sure but I gather he only played about a half. (Read it here somewhere but can't remember who posted it.)

Did anyone watch the Chris Bell injury update on the WB website?
When he got to Lin Jong the slide said 2-3 weeks but Chris's commentary was "hopefully on the field of play next week".

So which one is it?

Dogs media have been saying JJ is a possibility this week - swear I've seen multiple people on here claiming he's confirmed out this week, so I'm guessing all those people would be McCraeBF alt accounts?

Wonder where Stevo got his info from, seems to be out of sync with the Dogs media

The junior burger in Dogs media probably need to check his info as Id back in Stevo (senior dogs media).

I get that he's usually reliable, but it's weird that they'd publish something on their own website, and leave it up, if it's inaccurate. I don't see JJ playing this week but I'll trust them that he's still a chance to come in

The weekly injury updates on the website seem to be a bit more comprehensive this year which is good. Perhaps the club is responding to long term criticism of the regularity and detail of info given out.

Yes, credit where it's due. I've been critical in the past but it has improved in format and maybe in content this year (despite the self-contradiction over Jong's return).

Article on JJ on AFL.com.au - https://www.afl.com.au/news/2019-04-04/unlikely-but-close-star-bulldog-edges-nearer-to-his-return

Seems he's looking more likely to return for the Collingwood game than Gold Coast, but even then it's not guaranteed. Also mentions that a combination of Trengove's VFL ankle injury, as well as gastro, is keeping him away from the club completely, so definitely won't be playing any footy this weekend.

They won't keep JJ out of the Collingwood game.

Trengove will probably only miss one

The question is do they give JJ some minutes for Footscray or throw him in cold in a huge game at the G.

Cold... there is also precedent for that

And Bevo pretty much alluded to it as well

I hope I'm wrong but I really doubt they'd have his first game be against Grundy?

 

[Tommycash]

He'll be coming back into the VFL I would assume.

 

[Munnez]

Would have to be VFL for his first hit out this year I would reckon

Strikes me as a really nice bloke. Did you get that sense when you met him? Great news too!

Some good news.

 

[Bald]

Jong, Boyd and JJ all tests this week. Looks like Boyd and JJ will play at some level.

Bontempelli and Suckling are both fine.

 

[Norm De Guerre]

"Yes...Im back baby!"

Jong and Boyd named to resume playing the game this week at Footscray.

Injury news:

No new injuries for the AFL team.

Greene will be in a moonboot for 2-3 weeks with a fractured ankle and reassessed at that time.

No VFL game on the weekend but Cavarra, Khamis and Vandermeer expected in the week or two after that.

Touch wood but but easily the healthiest the list has been in years. Injuries to one senior player (Moz) and two injuries to fringe level players (Greene and Cavarra).
