Injury 2025 Crows Injury Update

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Did Butts maybe have a rib fracture from a previous game?

Then a fairly innocuous knock caused the lung issue

Surely you would be in some pain from a fractured rib.

This is a strange one.

I remember playing a school trial game where our beanpole ruckman, who couldn't kick, handball or mark, but was near 7ft tall, ended up with a punctured lung. There was this 'pop' sound that I thought was just a collision, but turned out the poor lad had all the air removed from his lung.

There is another option - the actual hit wasn't covered by the cameras.

Surely Butts himself knows when it happened?

Yeah but nobody is talking.

There is another option - the actual hit wasn't covered by the cameras.

And there is another option - multiple various hits adding up, and somewhere along the line, causing a significant injury, which we may never know when it had occurred.

The only time I would say when it is obvious, is when a player gets hit hard to the chest, and then right away winces in pain and becomes laboured in breathing. Otherwise, I would imagine it to be impossible to pinpoint when the exact time of the lung puncture.

I think it’s a sad situation to be honest, how with any significant injury, we’re conditioned to wanting to suspend an opposition player. The reality is that a lot of the serious injuries are purely from accidents. For example, Cook with the head clash; players bumping into other players and the posts, can all contribute some form of risk. It happens much more often than the intentional injuries.

Maybe but we haven't made any accustaions in that regard so maybe it was just that hit by "hands of stone" Darcy. It sucks because Butts is my fav defender on our list but it does look like a freak accident.

In saying that though, if that happened to Nick Daicos...scorched earth policy by the AFL until the player responsible could be deregistered

Just give him Cetaphil. That should smooth it over for Nick.

Wretched luck for Oscar. You could tell straight away it was a bad one. Hopefully no surgery. 8 weeks out is really end of his chances playing AFL this year. Let’s hope he has a better go at it next year

Crows dealt blow as important defender sidelined with hamstring injury

Scans have confirmed the extent of Crows defender Max Michalanney's hamstring injury

www.afl.com.au

ADELAIDE defender Max Michalanney is set to miss the rest of the home and away season due to a hamstring strain.

Michalanney suffered the injury during the third quarter of the Crows' Showdown thrashing of Port Adelaide on Saturday night.

The Crows said the important defender would miss the next 4-6 weeks.

Huge loss. Such an important player. Rarely gets beaten.

In the last 4 weeks we have lost a player to injury every week. Let's hope our luck changes this week.

 

[crows dude]

Back for week 1 of finals

 

[Crowman32]

Really disappointing news about michaelany and this is another reason you play guys like edwards earlier in the year so he is ready to go if injuries happen.

 

[bigman]

Really like the way that the club is being up front with injuries this year. They are taking us with them and the communication has been clear and accurate. Really appreciated

 

[WeeBlake]

Is there an update on Rachele?

 

[PeterSalt]

Is there an update on Rachele?

Maybe today. Injury reports usually come out on Tuesday

Mentioned towards the end of last week he getting close to losing the moon boot

 

[StonesThrow]

Think he's a big loss for us. So dependable. Hopefully we don't keep getting weekly injuries from here on!

 

[Peter Doherty]

Rachele's brace comes off this week!

Imteresting, basically we now have no ruck back up for ROB, because if Thilthorpe is forced to ruck we are down our best forward. So it's Toby Murray just off an injury and Chris Burgess..

Shame, I was thinking that there was some merit in giving McAndrew a run against West Coast and/or North Melbourne just to ensure he'd had some exposure in case he needed to be used.

 

[Eagleboy2011]

McAndrew is big for the SANFL side.
Sounds like Rach won't be back until finals at the earliest.
