You could tell it was this as soon as he clutched his arm. I've injured my AC joints 3 times (surgery once) and the worse time I clutched straight away. Couldn't feel my arm.

Definitely be fine for round 1. 4-6 week injury. With the club being all over the rehab he'll be right in 4. Just like Mountford last season. With Tarrant's should history thank christ it wasn't a shoulder reconstruction
 
Do not like to see Taz and shoulder injury in the same sentence, because of prior history, hope for a speedy and full recovery, is a key part of our D50.

Is it still a “Definitely” when it’s confirmed he needs surgery? When I did my AC I was told if I opted for surgery it would be a minimum 8 weeks out, but that is 14 years ago and obviously not in a professional environment.

If he’s not available, I’ll be even more peeved at Thompson’s suspension. I remember after Rd 23 last year thinking it was BS he got rubbed out for that - should’ve just been a fine - but it wouldn’t be that big of a deal when we had Taz, Maj, McKay and Durdin all available for KPD.

Get well soon Taz!!!

It has definitely improved. Surgery techniques and the knowledge around rehabilitation etc.

I agree but I'm be more than okay with Durdin, McKay, and EVW playing together. Durdin and McKay formed a formidable partnership in the VFL last year. They are both ready to rock n roll if need be
 
It’s not like we were gonna win Round 1 anyways.

The joint itself is usually right to go within a week, its the ligaments and whatnot that take time, as long as he's doing the correct rehab 6 weeks is more than an achievable target.
 
At least Taz has completed the bulk of the preseason’s fitness work already. A/C injuries hurt like hell but knowing his surgeon as well as I do I’m sure he’ll be confident in his “right to go for round one” prediction.
 
I have a bad feeling as to where our season is heading. I hope its not going to be like this.

I was just kidding. Our midfield will blitz them. Could be made tough if Taz is unavailable along with Thommo and Maj though.

I tend to agree. Our weight of numbers in the midfield should run over the top of them. Freo have to be 5 goals in front at half time to be any chance.
 
Good!

If being hard is a negative trait, then I'll give up following footy.

We need 6 more like him.

It aint Snake
And we do need more like him

It was the timing of it all. Thompson out, Majak down - Tarrant became our most prized asset. Whether he should have had a fluro vest on I dont know, the fact it was 5 minutes from the end of the intraclub you dont RAM any teammate into the ground. Common sense
