Cam Cloke injured

[Optimax]

Cam has dislocated his shoulder again at training today and thorton didn't train today either.

We should now have an advantage in the ruck and down forward

Not nice to see a player who cant consolidate a spot thanks to injury though

 

[Stakerz]

Again?

Gotta feel for him, having always dislocate his shoulder would really mess with your head.

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Thanks for the update, but that's terrible news. I don't want to see players injured, unless their name is Nick Davis.

 

[jonesy86]

terrible news for cam...

only positive from the pies persepective is that it partly justifys why we let him go

 

[davey_23]

Feel sorry for Cam, he was going pretty well.

 

[3066]

The poor bloke - not good at all.

 

[Stakerz]

And I was looking forward to seeing Bryan and Cloke go at it

As well as maybe one of our players giving it to cam.

Bring it on!

 

[Dazman]

Geezus Fraser and Bryan vs. Ackland and McClaren (I assume they'll bring him in)

Would love to be a Collingwood midfielder on the w/e.

Bad news for Clokey though, you feel for him. After cementing a spot this happens.






Edit: McClaren injured. Maybe one of Hampson and the other O'HelpCarlton will come in.

 

[Baggers]

McLaren was badly injured last week in the Bullants game & is out for about 6 weeks. You should smash us in the ruck now. Hopefully we'll just rove to Fraser & Bryan.
Good to see some genuine remorse for Clokey here. I wasn't sure what kind of reaction his injury would get from the Pies army.

 

[Dazman]

If Clokey left us we'd probably be a bit more upbeat about it, but the truth is we let him go and many think we shouldn't have.

 

[Jabso]

I suppose Kennedy will have a go in the ruck, or even O'hailpin or Whitnall if they're feeling adventurous.

 

[goalpie]

Some players just have no luck at all and just after that picture in the paper with Travis and Cam.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

I am convinced that his shoulder is the main reason we delisted him. Fully fit he probably would have been retained for another year (and should have, imo), but it seems the shoulder was just too fragile.

 

[Soups]

Yeah but don't forget fellas our backline will be out of sorts with clem out and presti under an injury cloud. Should be a good game IMO.

 

[Baggers]

Agree, Kennedy & Lance will do some ruck work. I $hit myself when we put Lance in the ruck in the last quarter v Essendon, but he got some very important touches of the ball. He used his body well & got a couple of good hitouts down our onballers throats when it counted. Kennedy did some good work last week, but I am still yet to be convinced about him. Cloke & possibly Thornton going down may well have saved him from being dropped this week.

 

[Coin_Toss]

How many shoulder related injuries is that for Cam? I thought his shoulders were stuffed last year, but he came back and looked OK, you have to feel for the bloke as he looked like a really good prospect and I was pumping his tyres up since day one.

Can he come back from this latest set-back?

 

[Shellz]

Some people just have terrible luck

 

[Smell The Glove]

And I was looking forward to seeing Bryan and Cloke go at it

Me too. Would have been a fantstic match-up, and certaily would have generated some interest talk on here after the match, no matter who won. Disappointing.

north gave him a physical in the hope of taking him preseason but their medical advise was that his shoulder would not stand up all season and the pies knew that to

Aaah. Good old Carlton, always willing to make stupid trades on washed up or injured players. Mick Martyn, Mick McGuane anyone?

 

[3066]

And I was looking forward to seeing Bryan and Cloke go at it

Yeah both players have some to prove against their former clubs and going up against each other is just setup for a fantastic football story. Could you imagine the adrenaline between them with the roar of the crowd?? Shame.

but the blues doctor Dr Nick from the simpsons gave him a clean bill of health

Yes - spot on! Carlton always lift for us and we'll go in with at least four changes from the lot that did so well for us last weekend. It's bad luck for Cloke and he's apparently been playing some pretty good footy - but, it's not like they've just lost a Fevola or Simpson. I just hope to hell we have Dids, Brodie and Presti in - and fit!

Well the abuse is flowing on another site, apparently you cannot have bad shoulders so I am wondering why they havent all abused Rusling for getting injured

Bad luck for Cam but its not as bad as the other injuries
