Injury 2017 Injury Thread

[Sloane4pm]

Would rather these injuries now... at least we are giving guys a chance to recover and get games under the belts before a possible finals campaign. Last year I believe was the opposite

This makes no sense.

No-one has complained about not taking risks. Unless you mean the appointment of Hass/Haas. I think the complaints were not about the risk but about the process.

The time to question the hamstring issue IS now. Not a week before the GF when we make 4 changes because of hammies

I'm sure that's being done internally. Hamstrings may have been identified as a risk prior to gaining approval to implement the program in the first place. Just because the club is again playing a straight bat, doesn't mean that they're ignorant of the issue.

This is the problem with the jobs for the old boys club.

Not only are we not getting the very best.. we're often getting guys that are outright bad.

Out of curiosity does Burton even have any formal qualifications?

He has fitness qualification from memory but I don't think he's done his Harvard shortbcourse to finalise his tooling up program.

Don't downplay Burton's Adelaide Institute of Fitness qualifications so quickly.

Do you know he's fully qualified to run both individual and group PT sessions as well as Pilates, Pump and Body Attack classes.

Plus all Crows players now get a 10% discount on Fitness First memberships.

I believe that course guarantees you a job after you finish, too. So here we are

I hear this comment a lot. Can someone tell me why they think these injuries will magically stop?

Each club gets a certain quota. We've almost reached ours now.

Must not have watched the bottom team smash west coast then.

Mate told me. Just passing on. Doesn't sound good.
Hope it's bullshit. He's got 2-3 months off makes sense to go home for a bit
If he leaves we will get stooged because he isn't playing

Gov going home to see family while he has rehab opportunities while media and nuffies speculate about meeting with wa clubs.

FTFY

It's not unexpected that he's going home for a bit if he's not playing for a couple of months.

It's not unexpected that the WA clubs want him playing for them.

It's not unexpected that he (or his manager) is meeting with them. If I was in his position I'd be doing the exact same thing. He needs to know what the options are before he can make a decision.

However, none of that means he's definitely leaving.

Will he leave? Maybe, but he's not gone yet.

Are players permitted to meet with rival clubs while under contract? Are managers allowed to accept offers while players are under contract?

It's time

I think a manager can entertain offers, but obviously they can't agree to anything binding.

As for players meeting with rival clubs, I think it is technically allowed, but frowned upon (a la Lin Jong touring the Magpies facilities in July last year).

As of Monday morning, Talia was yet to undergo scans, but it's understood his injury is to the hamstring muscle, with early indications suggesting he's suffered a relatively minor strain.

Fellow Crow Riley Knight was also due to have scans on Monday after injuring his right hamstring late in Saturday's game.

Knight is thought to have escaped with muscle tightness rather than a tear.

If this is true Knight seems like he'll play this weekend. What do you guys think of Talia's chances to play?

I had exactly that recently and was right within a week.

Nope. He's been on the Gold Coast. Back in Adelaide right now.

I don't think a Human Movement degree, even with honours is enough to let you work as a physio. Obviously you don't need to be a physio to be a strength and conditioning coach, but I thought a Human Movement degree was basically like an Arts degree in that it wasn't that useful all by itself.
