I'm starting to wonder about Luke Jackson. Things are getting dire already.

State of play: Your club’s pre-season injuries​

Jarrod Berry (shoulder) is about a week from joining the main group, as is Jarryd Lyons (groin).

Matthew Kennedy (Lisfranc) and George Hewett (back) are in full training and involved in match simulation

Caleb Marchbank and David Cuningham are on modified programs due to their lengthy injury histories

Veteran Jeremy Howe is having his workload managed, as is youngster Fin Macrae, who has a back issue

Ben King is likely to play at least one practice game, placing him on track to feature in round one after a knee reconstruction

Free of injury, Brent Daniels could be one to watch.

Haynes has regained the weight and strength he lost during a horror 2022. Lachie Whitfield (ankle surgery) took full part in their gruelling training camp.

Max Gawn will be back in full training this next week after his low-grade hamstring injury

Tom Clurey (knee) is also back with the main group along with youngsters Jed McEntee (hamstring), Josh Sinn (abdominal tendon, hernia)

The Saints are hopeful of a return in round six or seven for star forward Max King, who is hitting key milestones in his rehab after a shoulder reconstruction

Nick Coffield (ACL) had hamstring surgery last year but is expected to be available for pre-season games

Sad to see a bloke get struck down by injury so many times.

Might open the door for Cowan at least.

 

[JuddgementDay]

Damn shame - he has had his best pre-season too!

Lycett sucks, don't pick him. Fingers crossed he plays out his contract in the SANFL and then gets delisted at the end of the year.

Not good for TheRednWhite, had them both

Injury Update | Christian Salem​

Salem has been placed on a modified training program.

MELBOURNE’S Christian Salem has been placed on a modified training program due to a thyroid concern.

The defender has battled a similar problem in the past, which impacts the body’s heartrate, blood pressure, body temperature and weight.

Salem, whose history assisted with early detection, has since been working with a specialist, alongside the club’s medical team, in his recovery.

“He will continue to be monitored closely by his specialist and reintegrate into training as his thyroid levels stabilise.”

appears in doubt to play in Melbourne’s season opener in just over a month’s time after the Demons confirmed he’s battling a thyroid problem

“But thyroid gland problems can be produced by a variety of things… the first thing is the medical staff at Melbourne know what’s worked before so they’ll go down that path and then it’s a real balancing act to get it working just in that sweet spot so that it’s not going too fast, not going too slow.

“That’s particularly the case, early parts of the season when we’ve got some very hot weather because it’s the overheating that’s the big issue.

“In the hot weather, it’s potentially very dangerous to him.”

An overactive thyroid can cause issues with heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature and weight and as Dr Garnham says, makes it harder to perform at high levels.

While there are a number of treatments for Salem, he’ll also need to be confident in his own health before stepping on the field for the Demons.

“In the hot weather, it’s potentially very dangerous to him.”

as injured , with a sub note expected to be available R1-2. I presume they know nothing new. Wish they had diagnosed the English injury as 6 weeks last year!
