Langford cant be a full time mid. Does not have the sheer will for the contest that good ones do.

He should be playing as a high half forward.

I feel like this is a bit similar to Parish flourishing with full midfield time.

Just let Langford play the high HF role for the remaining games and don't move him. His skills around the ground are nowhere near as good as they are around the goals imo.

My wife loathed Langford the past year or so but I kept saying he’s good and getting better. She’s finally come around. It’s the little victories…

He seems to play well when the team plays well, which is another way of staying that to date he has yet to lift the team during a game.

Or when he lifts the team, the team stays lifted?

Subbed out with hamstring tightness tonight

Subbed out with hamstring tightness tonight

Okay phew, when I saw the club tweet out that he got subbed due to a hamstring I got really nervous. Hope he's okay!

Yup, boundary rider (Matthew Richardson I think) said he'd spoken to Langford and it was tightness. Good thing I heard it before seeing the club tweet or I'd be same as you! It could be worse than they're telling us I suppose, but I also didn't see any ice so that's a good sign.

Fingers crossed it’s just precautionary.

Just a quick question on Langord's hammy - he came off in the second quarter with an injury, is that when he did it?

Or was it sometime in the third?

Thanks a lot

Subbed at 3QT, no idea about the second quarter.

Fair enough. Just trying to figure out why he couldn't get near it in the third

Was benched 25 minutes into the 3rd quarter and subbed at 3QT according to the ticker on the AFL website. Would have to watch the replay to find out any more than that I think, unless someone remembers something helpful.


I do remember him missing a handball and then attempting to tackle the guy that sharked it, I think in the 3rd quarter? Might've been he was distracted by an injury that he did in the second quarter I suppose, hard to say. Seemed out of character.

To be so prolific in the first half then have 2 touches in third, something is up

Cant wait for the club report that it’s been torn of the bone.

 

[Beerfish]

So was this a professional sub or did he actually do something because I didn't see it.

 

[2006_Eagles]

Possibly the most attractive man in the AFL too

He went in to the rooms with it about 8 minutes in to the second. They decided to play on with it before the sub at 3QT.

I had to say it but hamstring tightness or awareness nearly always ends up as "we completed the scans and they've sustained a low grade hamstring injury and will miss 3 weeks". I think its pretty likely he misses the North game. If we are lucky he might be back for the next one.

That's what I thought. Cheers

Who’d have thought how disappointed we were that Langford was subbed out of the game.

Genuinely think if he’s ok that Langford can finish in the top 5 - 10 of the Crichton Medal at years end.

Hope not out for long, vital cog for us and becoming a very dependable player.

 

[Schnitzengruben]

Putting together arguably his best season so it would be a shame if we was set for a stint on sidelines.

 

[eth-dog]

Given there was no ice on the hamstring I'd suggest he'd only train lightly and probably play next week.

 

[Megabattimus]

We've gotten lucky this year with hamstring tightness subs. Redman got subbed out of the Saints game with tightness and only missed one game.

Every chance we caught Langford's early and he only misses the North game.
