If thats true the $1.80 for Dixon under 41.5 goals on sportsbet looks like free money.

Looks good anyway given he's only reached that tally in 1 of his 8 seasons.

 

[SureBuddy]

If Ollie is borderline I'd rather they give him an extra week. Long season - we need him fit and firing later in the year

I’m actually in the other camp. A win against a genuine contender in round 1 away from home would be absolutely massive. Would set the entire season up.

From what I've been hearing Dixon is 3 months away from playing. Really could make his entire year a write off.

Why so long?

 

[Adam Marrett23]

Why so long?

Cause it wasn't just a broken leg. He had a ankle reconstruction also, and had a minor set back when he started running on it. I doubt he'd be three months away, Hinkley said yesterday in his presser likely 4-6. The healing time with the injury he had is massive so bound to be a issue or two along the way.

Dixon has had minor surgery on his ankle yesterday.

*Hahaha that auto sensored.

I wrote a 4 letter F word with an 'a' instead of a 'u'.

 

[tangolikelama]

Take it. Put a $million on it.

Just found the market and was ready to plunge but he needs to play 16 games..

 

[Doctor Feel]

Plenty of avenues to goal with our smells. Not concerned. He wouldn't be the difference.

Our smells are particularly pungent as we have been quite s**t.

PORT ADELAIDE forward Charlie Dixon has had minor surgery after a slight set back in his recovery from a leg injury suffered late last season.

Dixon landed awkwardly in the Round 21 match against West Coast in August, fracturing his fibula and damaging ligaments in his right ankle.

On Tuesday afternoon he saw a surgeon who recommended a minor clean out of the ankle under arthroscope.

Dixon is so far away from training properly it isn't funny. But he did break his leg, and some players take more than a year to recover.

Shocking.

 

[JUSTWORK]

When fit Dixon is a damn good player, under rated by so many.

We’re a much better side with him up and firing.

Yep but how would we rate his time here as a whole? Doesnt help playing a game style thats hell for a forward but looking a bit underwhelming overall.

 

[Iwish]

This is the one year if we are going to be playing this more attacking game that dixon would have benefited with the ball coming into the foward line quicker and not hap hazardly. Lets hope he can play a few games in the back half of the season

 

[MrPlow]

Lol, Riley Grundy goes from test to 5-7 weeks. You couldn't make this s**t up.

Who is handling our injury list announcements? Brett burton ?

Hard to put a number on it, certainly a pretty good pass. In his first year he broke his career record for most games in a year then in 2017 he was being touted as (along with Ryder) being the one of best big men in the game (on form) probably didn't back that up last year, but the way we played contributed.

I expect him to be one of the forwards who benefit most from the new rules, his biggest problem was s**t delivery and being double or triple teamed. He is one of the best 1v1 players in the game, factor in our more aggressive game plan and 1v1 contests and i expect him to thrive. Hopefully theinjury doesnt ruin his whole year.

Still couldn't mark the ball or kick straight for a lot of that time. Other than that I agree with you.

Oh, der (odour) irony.

Sounds like Dixons leg is cooked. Poor bugger. Will it be hard coming back from this at his age?

Hmm sounds like Dixon will be probably good to go next year.

So Dixon is relaxing in Cairns. Odd.
