Statistically just as good in his second. Then ran afoul of the match committee somehow.

 

[Mr Mojo Risin]

Must be building up a lot of running. Glad we donated to the Flight Plan.

Has been out of the 1s for so long I'd actually forgotten he was a listed player...given our injury list better late than never.

Only kicking 5 goals in his last 7 games probably had something to do with it.

Stop picking on the guys that have kicked 5 goals in 7 games

His form dropped off considerably when Daniher was shut down. His form before that was pretty solid.

Runs on the board only counts for some.

No mention of him in the injury report today. Guess "after the bye" isn't a thing.

 

[eth-dog]

Confirmed dead.

 

[eth-dog]

Listed as a "test" on the afl website. Could it be finally happening?

 

[Don Won]

Still indefinite with a groin injury. Has he caught OP off Joey?

Not yet 100%, return indefinite (as noted above).

The club is continuing to take a patient approach to James Stewart’s rehabilitation, with the key forward failing to reach the expected mark after the mid-season bye.

“We were tracking James with his groin injury towards returning after the bye. He hasn’t quite got to 100 per cent and we’re not going to put him out there until he does,” Crow said.

“That leaves (his return date) a little indefinite, but we’re just going to keep plugging away, taking good advice on how to get that groin right up to full capacity before playing him in an AFL match.”

So they have cut off his leg then i take it?

 

[Andronicus]

I remember when Stewart used to play for the bombers.

 

[Maddogm]

I remember when Stewart used to play for the bombers.

Obviously not a true footy fan with a memory that good

Oh hey pepperidge farm.

 

[Howard Moon]

Has OP according to vfl coverage?

Makes sense.

 

[eth-dog]

So frustrating that he's injured. Hope it clears up in time for him to play some footy late in the year.

 

[Old Campaigner]

Has OP according to vfl coverage?

Makes sense.

Justin Crow strikes again

 

[Maxabillions]

What’s going on with his injury? AFL site says he is test. Could he replace Clarke?

 

[Old Campaigner]

Probably testing for a pulse.

 

[Essendonia]

I saw him after the game. His hair looked fantastic.

No update on his injury though.

Taken from this weeks injury update:

The club continues to take a patient approach to forward James Stewart’s rehabilitation from a groin injury.

“James is just completing his groin rehabilitation. We’re not prepared to put him out there until he gets that completely symptom free.

“We haven’t got to that point yet and we’ll keep going until that time.”
