Injury 2018 Blue Healers Medical Room - HBF - fainthearted 1-2 weeks

[BlueGum]

Am i reading that right - Cripps, Fish and Jones are the only players to play every game?

 

[Yubby]

And if i'm reading it correctly... we've only had 4 rounds where we finished with no injuries in our games
(4 on the bench). 4 our of 15 rounds!!

only 4 seems remarkably low. another measure of lack of continuity

 

[Jabba73]

As a general rule that I think should be implemented, if you are 'facing a fitness test' and the team is 1-15, you probably shouldn't play.

Why risk injury. Just rest guys - shut them down for the year if needed - and let them get full fitness before starting a really good pre-season.

Our players are our most important assets, and for the young guys (Weitering, Macreadie, Marchbank, etc) the most critical thing they can do IMO is have a really good pre-season. Why risk anything happening to them in the last 6 weeks?

Still have an obligation to field an AFL side

Good. More games into him after no full pre-season, the better.
Hope they get games into LeBois soon. Maybe a week away they let him loose.

Lots of young players, low depth, forced defensive game plan, lots of players recruited with previous injury history, doing a preseason in the park and now running around on a fresh surface that's probably not ideal, lack of depth forcing low rotations, little rest periods, rushing player back, we're probably playing a lot of sore and injured players. We're going to struggle. Just need to chip away at these factors.

More mature players, perfect training surface, lots of rotations in all areas, good depth in and outside of the best 22, ability to rest players, bring in players who demonstrate a sound body. Just work on getting these right.

Injuries are a big reason for a poor season but where we are at, we probably are higher risk of having a high injury toll than many others.

It shouldn't, have it myself and it doesn't cause issues unless you're having an episode.

Are there specific triggers or are the episodes random?

Pretty random, there's probably something but I haven't pinpointed it in myself. Anxiety has in the past though at times.

Are we cursed? Or does our medical department need a complete overhaul?

See how static our players were when Jack had the ball. Gave him absolutely nothing to go to. Murph sat there a few metres away from an opponent and didn't move.

Another 1st quarter injury, a second in the 2nd. How many times is this going to happen?

A complete review and revamp needs to be done in the off season.

 

[Lace_Out]

I don't think preperation had anything to do with todays injuries but that department will come under plenty of scrutiny.

This looks like classic overtraining.

They said it wasn't a rolled ankle for Fisher. The way he was hobbling it could just about be a hairline fracture. Out for the rest of the season if that's the case.

Jinxed it

Looked to me like Fisher was hacked by Howe the sniper.

This would be hilarious in hindsight, if it wasn't so tragic.

Fisher - possible broken leg, out for season. Jones - knee injury, out for season. Cripps - punched in head... survived (I think if Cripss had gone down too that post would have been worthy of a permanent ban from this board)

**** sorry. Shouldn’t have asked the question. Will cop the ban

 

[Mr_Plow]

Depressing.

Zac was one of the highlights of the year. * you Howe, you ******* weak campaigner.

 

[mike ockerts]

Fish was one of the one's that keeps me turning up every week, if Howe gets off I'll spew, low dog act

Maybe, with all the soft tissue injuries throughout the season.
