Player Watch Daniel Curtin - Out injured for 3 months

[GreyCrow]

FFS what a blow, my enthusiasm for the season has taken a hit between this and draper

'Matthew Nicks September 2026'

Looks like we know why he wore the bandage repeatedly now.
Wonder why he doesn't use it training?

It is clear that the "AI" report was rubbish.

Pretty sure from BM's reports he normally does.

Im glad theyve decided to do it to be honest.

A mate of mine dislocated his left knee 8 times before he was 21, he waited nearly 2 years for surgery.

I don't thnk "they", i.e., the club, come into it. The decision rests with the player and his medical professionals.
I think it's the right one and hopefully the recovery will be swifter than if there were bone and/or ligament damage.

What was that?

 

[spenze]

He better go full beefcake whilst in recovery and grow a beard

I said GOOD midfielder

Laird has been a great player for the club for a long time, but he's not the future, or even the present, of our midfield.

I guess we can rule you out as Mathew Nicks

 

[BRL121]

What was that?

Someone posted the results of an AI query on Cutrin's previous injury history which claimed that he had not had this problem previously. The poster acknowledged that it was probably rubbish. So much for "AI".

Ah right I missed that

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

He'll be in peak form for finals.

We need to finish top 6 & not get off to a bad start in the 1st month.

Curtin may have had issues b4, which hadn't required medical intervention ......anyway, I can't imagine AI would legally have access to a person's medical records .....wow, wouldn't that open up a can of worms

You should test that out!

Patella​

Patella stabilization surgery is a procedure designed to prevent the kneecap from dislocating and to treat recurrent instability. The surgery can involve various techniques, including MPFL reconstruction, lateral release, tibial tuberosity osteotomy, and de-rotational osteotomy. The goal is to reposition and secure the patella for pain-free, stable movement. The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia, and patients may require crutches for several weeks post-surgery. Physical therapy is essential for regaining strength, flexibility, and range of motion in the knee.

No rouge coachng

No rouge coachng

Still more important than Curtin's injury.

 

[Gtowncrow]

Should take the captaincy off Dawson

Should be forced to wrestle Nick Murray and Mark Keane in any future drills.

 

[1970crow]

All done with a football in your hand, moving, not laying on the ground with 2 blokes on top of each other!

Wouldn’t it make more sense to practice tackling, shrugging off opponents

Yeh, there’s pretty much zero value in terms of improving football performance. It’s more a bit of fun combined with a competitive aspect. A bit like when the soccer balls came out at training, just shits and giggles. Just unlucky though, they probably do it a fair bit.

Whatever you say about him, Nicks doesn't use makeup!

Why do you want them injured?...

Why do you want them injured?...

 

[cleanhands]

Whaever you say about him, Nicks doesn't use makeup!

Yeh I know, you know what I mean

 

[1970crow]

Pretty sure Nick Murray is, if not our current most injury prone player, then certainly top 3

His brother’s injury strike rate isn’t too shabby either.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Whaever you say about him, Nicks doesn't use makeup!

Now who is going rogue lol...

He prefers to go on the fly...

 

[FR0GGY]

Whaever you say about him, Nicks doesn't use makeup!

I’m hoping he’s just used a shit load of concealer over his good game plan.

Why do you want him to conceal it from the team again, particularly in finals?
