What does Catempire say about Guthrie?

Still on crutches less than two weeks ago = SHOULD BE ON THE INJURY LIST

Danger will be 3-4 weeks i reckon (ie past the bye). I dont think we will get anyone on that list back before the bye except rohan and maybe stengle.

What does Catempire say about Guthrie?

There is only room for max 10 players on the form.

Its just gout, he is fine.

 

[Jumping Jack]

I think we’ll see a couple of surprise inclusions this week.

Stay tuned

Is Flynn Kroeger still even on our list?
Never mentioned this year, once, from my reading.

Think, or heard?

 

[foxdog50]

Why is there still no mention of Shannon Neale not being injured?

He is…but I am not convinced that we will see him play again. Think his hip injury doesn’t look “fixable” in the timeframe needed to have a crack

He was in the huddle at the vfl game the other week but havent seen him play.

You‘ll be wrong about a few.

He has never played a game for us iirc, perhaps half a game max?

 

[catempire]

BECAUSE THEY ARE CROOKS

 

[cats_09]

Think he played half a VFL match and broke his wrist/arm when he ran into the goal post

 

[Vdubs]

Is that his current issue?
Or Hip?

 

[CHAWKTS]

Guthrie not even mentioned on the injury list. SDK a chance to return this week at least.

Medical room: The full AFL injury list, R9 - Medical room: The full AFL injury list, R9

Just watched the Cats Podcast with Ling…he was very clear that Guthrie is not available this week nor SDK. As he was making these comments he kept looking to someone off screen (producer? Someone from the club?) to get the ok to say both of those things…

That hand break was last year. - poor kid in his only VFL game I think!

His ongoing issue is his hips (plural). Had another round of surgery over off season but not sure it is “taking”…

Never trust someone doing a hostage video.

 

[CHAWKTS]

You‘ll be wrong about a few.

You could be right (and may have inside info?)…but might it depend on whether we win the next couple of games? All of those injured wouldn’t hurt from staying out a week or two longer (healing or building fitness?) so if we get to 7-3 or even 7-4 (GWS following week) we may roll the dice and keep most out until after bye? If we are 6-5 I could see us bringing a couple of stars back for the bulldogs pre bye game?

SDK will be a choice - he will be ready pre bye with a mask or post bye without…Guth and Danger I assume will be able to play pre bye if needed…but a couple of extra weeks training block will do them no harm leading into the back half of the year?

now that you said that it does look a little like that….he gets nervous when making statements that he is going off script!!

I’d like to think the win-loss ledger doesn’t affect how they judge when players are ready to return from injury.

 

[CHAWKTS]

I’d like to think the win-loss ledger doesn’t affect how they judge when players are ready to return from injury.

So would I…but I reckon it does….not that they would bring back people before they are ready but maybe they hold people back one more week if they can?

i suppose we will never know…

The bye is what makes the difference, no bye and I don't think it comes into consideration but game before bye, if we haven't lost another game before then, then it makes real good sense to fully prepare certain players that have had injuries to fully prepare for 2nd half of season with a extra 2 week break, then to come out fresh and firing, with all guns blazing for the 2nd half of season, especially as we have now seemed to have overcome our post bye hoodoo of never winning.
