AFL Player 28: Xavier Duursma 🏹

[VelvetSledge]

 

[doug85]

Yep . Just has to iron out the little errors.

I reckon that sentiment applies to a couple of our defenders too.

 

[windyhill]

Love the b & a coming out, loved the goal saver right at the end even more.

Was literally about to talk about that. Huge effort.

 

[bombreys]

Probably twice as good today as he was over the first 2 rounds

 

[Pweter]

Any news as to the severity of the injury?

On tv they said a hyperextended wrist, nothing more, though I didn't watch any post game stuff.

Him and Durham critical with their run and competitiveness, those types make us look like a football team. Hopefully both ok (sounds like Durham should be).

Durham will miss a week with concussion protocols but hopefully right after that.

Yeah think I read on here somewhere Duz's shoulder is fine but was concussed. Haven't heard anything more about Duursma

Brad said it in his press conference.

 

[jannissary]

stood up when it mattered, got his first goal, did his finger at the end which is great from a defensive perspective because he put his body on the line in the face of what was likely a goal.

 

[Old Campaigner]

I heard the wrist injury is part of a degenerative condition bought on by that bow and arrow wank

 

[MiguelM]

That tackle on Marshall was near match winning. Saints were waltzing into goal. Then the defensive spoil and rushed behind saved the game. Huge.

 

[Schnitzengruben]

Great game and loved that chase down tackle at the end.

Wouldn’t say the tackle was match winning but the 1on1 contest win 10m out from goal definitely was

I thought he'd dislocated a finger. Looked like he was trying to put it back in.

This was a knock on him from Port fans before he left; that after suffering concussion he was softer at the contest than he had been previously.

 

[VelvetSledge]

I hated the bow and arrow when he was at Port, but jeez it got me up and about yesterday

 

[JayJ20]

This was the Duursma that we saw early days at Port. Ran hard and saved an almost certain goal not once, but twice.

If he keeps it up, then we've picked up a really good player.

I will not admit.







...that it was okay.

 

[Call Me Cake]

 

[faible]

Worked in to the game nicely, that run-down tackle on the much bigger Marshall a genuinely great defensive effort that hasn't been seen enough in the red and black in recent years.

Bombers recruit recalls not-so-funny match-saving moment

Xavier Duursma says he was 'in some strife' during the final hectic minutes against St Kilda

The arm/hand issue was a funny-bone jarring apparently. So bad at the time, but hopefully good-to-go friday

 

[Mr Mojo Risin]

 

[Duckworth]

I said to my mate live at least he didn't do that bow and arrow BS. Then saw the replay... I'm not a fan.

 

[Blind Turn]

That’s actually top notch.
