Injury 2026 Injury update

[jathanas]

A lower class place, no stone lions and no stone soccer ball.

Please!

If we're going to call them out, we ought to highlight the showstopping omission. Where's the f* fountain?

Greek lawns are tough to run on.

Constant watering is said to lessen the damage.

 

[WanderingDude]

I have a tear in my eye. The environmental damage is huge. The stone flamingo is now extinct and sorely missed.

No. Beau's foot injury was reported as being caused by his foot being stepped on.

Frankly, the idea that grass surfaces might be a cause of chronic injuries because of their degree of hardness is absurd.

Apparently Beau going into surgery today to get a screw put in his fractured foot.

Reading this fractured my own foot.

 

[Drought Break]

Hopefully we have a fit, firing and consistent Jordan DeGoey next year. A high finish in the Copeland for a change would help our prospects considerably

Hopefully not a Lisfranc fracture. They can be very difficult to conclusively recover from.

Yes, full seasons in 2026 from DeGoey, Hill, McStay and McCreery would make us look a hell of a lot better than we did at times this year. Possibly too much to wish for though, given their respectively injury histories (Hill aside).

Incoming people moaning that surgery didn't occur day 1 of off-season.

Surprised nobody picked up on this before, given he had been in a moon boot for the last couple months.

Probably tried to let it heal naturally, then realised it surgical intevention was required.

 

[BillyElliott]

He had the surgery a few weeks ago (6th November).

So reported that he had the foot concern during the finals?

But hey Beau how about you go out there and do the grand final sprint?

And it's only now after returning from holidays that it is decided that surgery is required?

Interesting.

But I will be positive and say this provides an opportunity for a youngster.

Well why didn’t it? He’s 8 weeks behind because of the delay.
How’s a permanent midfielder spot looking now? Shithouse I’d say.

Most likely a specialist recommended resting it to see if it repaired itself naturally.

This surgery is based upon a second informed opinion. The first opinion the club received recommended amputation. I can see the argument for the first option.

 

[Obese Arachnid]

Just remember joint pain can be fixed, by holding it the right way around.

Even though the specialists involved don't work at the club, I still think we should sack them, as well as having a board spill for not sacking them sooner.

Nup. The club prefers to postpone off-season surgeries to ensure they have the biggest impact on our preparation.

Bet they didn't even bother going to see a surgeon until now. Probably only consulted with a Rester.

That's a relief. I'd decided that surgeons were complete morons for ****ing up Beau's preseason and was googling diy surgery - it looked a bit tricky.

Going to old man jokes…. cause I’m an old man. I thought poorly handled sackings lead to board spills.

They said put on a pair of spikes and run it out. That should fix it.
