Injury Blue Healers Medical Room - 2020

I honestly think he needs to trim down, will help with injuries.

really? I think he is a lot trimmer than he used to be , but his somatotype will never be one that suggests "ripped". Look at his brother

His brother has also been dropped for being overweight though. Wouldn't set that as an asparational bar

I think he looked better when coming back from his block with Russell after getting dropped.

The disagree button not dislike.

If he gets his act together then yes he can be great. But if it's true he's back in weight loss...thats just shameful.

Not a weight issue. He doesn’t maintain the best levels of fitness without continual high intensity work ... and now another hamstring tweak. The issues are not unrelated.

What a waste of picks and high quality picks at that.

I think you misunderstand. Being overweight is different to having a somatotype that is neither lean or muscular . When his brother was busy winning premierships for the WCE he helped win the game for them in the last quarter IIRC . He still looked a bit pudgy back then but obviously had the fitness.

Endomorphs will never look lean or muscular- but they can still be fit.

Ah yes, the last dregs of phrenology...

Anyone care to comment on the state of McGovern's humours?

 

[thylacine60]

They're just not that funny.

He says it goes really well with falafel...

Injury update: Kennedy to return

An update on the injury front ahead of Round 14.

www.carltonfc.com.au

MATTHEW Kennedy will be available for selection ahead of Carlton’s crucial clash with Collingwood on Sunday.

Kennedy is expected to make his return after missing last week’s win over Gold Coast due to the corked quad he sustained in Round 12.

Player	Injury	Update
David Cuningham	Calf	Returned on the weekend in the reserves scratch match.
Charlie Curnow	Knee
Brodie Kemp	Knee
Matthew Kennedy	Quad	Likely to return this weekend.
Matthew Kreuzer	Foot
Caleb Marchbank	Leg	"He had some leg soreness late in the week so we decided not to play him. He will be a test to play this week."
Mitch McGovern	Hamstring	"He’s missed 2 to 3 weeks of training so he’s de-conditioned a little bit. We're really confident he is going to come back against GWS in really good shape."
Nic Newman	Knee
Ben Silvagni	Shoulder
Jack Silvagni	Knee (ITB)	"He is settling down quite well. We're looking to get him back running later in the week."

 

[HBF]

Based on that injury report I would go in unchanged.

 

[james Dean]

Gonna need at least half a dozen players ready to go over the next fortnight

 

[DangerousD]

Marchbank missed again, he is cursed.

patience. look at Willow

I would have thought players bodies get more durable and adapt to AFL footy as they get older, massive concerns with his durability.

Put me in, coach.

 

[thylacine60]

Based on that injury report I would go in unchanged.

Do you think that's your decision to be making, my staggeringly good friend?

 

[I bleed Blue]

Marchbank missed again, he is cursed.

Yep. Have 0 confidence in ever getting his body right. Just seems rediculously injury prone.
