Injury Add three new injuries...

[Bovo]

Jenkins went down into the rooms twice but returned. Not sure what the issue was

Making sure his contract was not ripped up?

Was checking the american sports scores.

But i thought we didnt ice anymore since it doesnt matter?

Well technically there’s very little, if any evidence for ice in recovery/healing. There is evidence that it’s a very effective form of pain relief. The trouble is it’s very difficult to get good evidence on the effectiveness on recovery/rehab modalities for a variety of reasons, and given there’s very little downside/harm that can be done with icing, clubs would rather err on the “it might be of some limited benefit and there’s no harm in trying” because they’re after every 1% of benefit, than the “it probably doesn’t so don’t bother”.

If Talia is injured we are in bigger strife.

Agreed, has been very good this year, take him out and watch the flood gates open.

 

[Elite Crow]

There's apparently three new injuries after the game last night. Reports coming out that both Talia AND Brown were seen on crutches, and Atkins had his arm in a sling.

Where are you hearing this?

 

[Eagleboy2011]

Caught this on another sight

"Injuries are now catching up with Adelaide Crows
Even Lever and Cameron are injured and out for the rest the season"

 

[El Doederino]

What’s the penalty for a forfeit?

 

[douglyzia]

Atkins got crunched pretty hard in one of our forward pockets lateish in the last quarter. Might be from that.

Well that's not going to help his confidence in having to go in harder for the ball.

 

[douglyzia]

What’s the penalty for a forfeit?

No need to forfeit. Just get some games into the younger players.

Tippet is no longer playing.
Dangerfield better be careful he doesn't cross path with a black cat...

 

[CrowinNT]

Let's hope Pyke doesn't do a hammy going down the slide today

He did do a hammy earlier in the year...

 

[Sucka4Love]

I think after the game in the rooms, Pyke was showing Atkins how to tackle and 'accidentally' dislocated his shoulder

Hahahaha

 

[Golumless]

The cruellest of all ironies for this football club is that Dmac is titanium.

Yes. That is the most upsetting part of this injury crisis is Mackay has survived.

A true sign the football gods have decided to smite us.

Fixed

 

[azza77]

I thought I saw Atkins left arm hanging in a weird way - that made me think he might have dislocated a shoulder or something.

Copped a big hit/block just off the ball late in the 3rd I think it was. His arm looked limp afterwards.

There's apparently three new injuries after the game last night. Reports coming out that both Talia AND Brown were seen on crutches, and Atkins had his arm in a sling.

I was at the airport a couple of hours ago when the boys arrived back from the West. Brown on walking sticks, but no moon boot. Atkins looked okay and no sling. Didn't notice Talia, but if he was on sticks I probably would have.

I think this is a general summary of ice versus no ice management. It's not really a long-term management but more so for acute pain/swelling injuries, where cold ice helps to reduce the swelling and pain.
Though I think there is a separate issue going on where fans are bemused why a player was seen given the ice treatment after the game, and not earlier on when they were off the ground and hadn't come back on. My thinking is that it's simply because players were assessed to still be able to play out the game should the team need them to. With ice pack applied during the match, the muscles would have cooled down to the point they won't be able to come back on again.

 

[StonesThrow]

Doesn't brown always have issues with his ankles when he's injured?

 

[skittlebrew]

Disregard wins obtain draft picks

 

[dude316]

I heard Atkins saw a football in the changerooms, shrieked and ran, only to get his pinky caught in the netting and broke a fingernail. 6-8 weeks.

He’ll be acting captain soon enough

 

[kirky]

Talia and Brown injured...

Honestly I hope we're banking all our injury credits this year for the next 5 and dont have a single injury until 2023 otherwise wtf did we do to offend the gods so.

Well if they is a footy god, what on earth does it think it can do to a club even after its coach was murdered. Where was the fairytale ride then? ******* sadistic bastard!

For Brown, it's too early to apply the moonboot. He'd need to have scans first. If there are fractures or ligament tears, that's when you'd consider the moonboot.

Makes a change from being an acting footballer
