[MiguelM]

Any official word yet?

Will it be 2 or 22 weeks?

 

[FlyingV]

Hey, at least it will force us to develop some of our young key forwards…

This was posted 1.30 yesterday, don’t think it made it into this thread.

Confirms dislocation and that he was sent for scans. Hopefully the club does another update today about whether he’s going to need surgery or something…

Key forward Peter Wright dislocated his shoulder at training this morning after landing awkwardly in a marking contest.

He won’t play against Hawthorn on Sunday.

He has been sent for scans this afternoon with the results to dictate the next course of action for him. The club will work through rehab options in the coming days.

Injury update: Peter Wright

Wright ruled out of round one.

Dislocation. Easy fix!

 

[ghostdog]

Lol this club never fails to disappoint.

Wright's shoulder is hardly the club's fault. I think you meant to post in the Dodoro thread.

 

[carnthedons]

I want to know who broke all the ******* mirrors!!!!!!

Too much smoke and shadows, he couldn’t see

Surgery it is

 

[bennyg12]

Anything?

 

[VelvetSledge]

Confirmed surgery. Will miss the first half of the year. Likely to be back after the bye.

 

[VelvetSledge]

And on that bombshell, Weideman for Coleman let’s gooooo

 

[DonsRule]

RIP Peter, it was nice knowing you whi....

But while it sucks its the best thing to do.

Get it all done properly

 

[ghostdog]

So, 12 to 16 weeks.

 

[citizen-erased]

Half season of weid, jones and voss or bryan should be in order now. See what combo rises to the top

 

[Beerfish]

 

[Schnitzengruben]

Still should have about 11 games to win the Coleman.

 

[ant555]

Surgery it is

Would seem the best option. Not like we are in contention this year anyway.

 

[jannissary]

i’m gutted, he’s such a good performer & this will impact our forward line so much z

on the bright side hopefully it’ll mean that jones will get more time in key positions

 

[citizen-erased]

Would seem the best option. Not like we are in contention this year anyway.

What's unfortunate is the interruption to his momentum. Found his feet a little in 2021, but finished 2022 off quite strongly

Daniher, fantasia, stringer, tippa, parish, Wright. We seem to lose players just as they reach peak for long stretches.

 

[naraku]

3 months FFS!

 

[Dave]

Cursed.

 

[BratPack]

Well. Time to move on to the most serious question.

Which GWS midfielder is Flogoro going to trade pick 1 for?

 

[HirdsTheWord]

Wright's shoulder is hardly the club's fault. I think you meant to post in the Dodoro thread.

Not sure I said it was the clubs fault.

I said the club disappoints.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

Jon Ralph just said a shoulder reco and club hoping he’ll be back by Rd 16-20!
