Player Watch #30: Charlie Comben - signed til end '27

[The Nostradamus]

I reckon it was more the club rather than Comben himself.

Probably
He’s done that block now

Gets a rest this week but I wouldn’t rule him out of selection next week

Who is Norman?

Norman Batesy

Ahh Batesy, if its the same one, I know him. But its not him

 

[Horizons_00]

Is he going to come in for Larkey? Or is he injured?

 

[shintemaster]

Is he going to come in for Larkey? Or is he injured?

If he does it will be a question worth asking. He might have always been on track for this week however at face value it would be much more ideal if he came in to stand next to Larkey. Interesting times.

Charlie Comben is also expected to put his hand up for selection this weekend after recovering from the knee issue that sidelined him from North's VFL clash at Ikon Park.


Comben has been in fine form for the reserve side so far this season with his best performance coming in the Round 4 victory over Footscray.


"Charlie's knee blew up a bit late last week. It became clear that it wasn’t an infection, but the swelling was significant, so our medical team drained some fluid out of it. He seems to have bounced back well, so we expect he will be available to play this weekend," McPherson said.

Normal, nothing to see here (lol)

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Significant swelling.

Might want to look at that.

 

[KillaKanga]

Significant swelling.

Might want to look at that.

If he plays against Dockers and kicks 5 there'll be significant swelling indeed

 

[Jasemon]

Slight knee concern. Might come down to whether they think Optus Stadium is too hard a deck to bring him back on.

Personally would love to see him out there. Very excited about Charlie’s prospects and reckon he’s ready to launch.

I becoming less and less convinced he’s gonna get there

 

[Themanbun]

Knees just swell up significantly all the time with no cause apparently

all over again. In 2020 he had a solid month of "back next week once the swelling goes down guys" and then never played again for the rest of the season.

We seem surprisingly positive that he can potentially play this week

I like it

 

[XU1-ROO]

Just get games into Comben just like they are with Perez FFS.

I’m getting the feeling he will play now. With Nobles vague comment.

If so I’d go CCJ Chom Walker up fwd

The injuries are a worry though

 

[XU1-ROO]

yep. Want to see how Comben goes in the AFL. May need to draft another KPF in the draft if he ends up being too injury prone.
