Injury Blue Healers Medical Room - 2021

[juzza316]

All we need is some bad umpiring and a dodgy tribunal decision and that is our yearly excuse checklist complete so early in the year!

Cant wait to get back to preseason where we are almost guaranteed premiers

Not necessarily relating to Fish's and Martin's injuries but perhaps if we don't continually put ourselves in a 30 point deficit, they wouldn't have to go helter skelter at the end of games to try peg it back and wear themselves down or put themselves in riskier situations to try to win and thus increasing risk of injury.

Can we call this Blue Healers

May be offensive to some of the other colours

The colour is fine. The healers part is what I take issue with. Doesn't seem to be a lot of healing happening.

 

[__Bobcat__]

Just bloody rest Cripps and get him back fit and firing in 6 weeks time.
Put the onus on some of the other players to step up.

I can't understand why he is taking injections to play in round 2 ffs.
If it were finals fine. but round 2.

A good excuse to finally play a few kids. Carroll and Owies any chance?

 

[gbatman]

Our injuries are taking a toll but it's all bad luck. If you could suggest it's anything then maybe it's something to do with the speed and openness of the game we are trying to play? Maybe we look at being more defensive and slowing the game down. To be honest it mostly seems bad luck. Hopefully our depth and youth start to come through and it won't matter so much. As for an excuse to finally play a few kids, we already have that excuse, mediocre mature aged players. It's up to the coach to do his bit.

I would say fatigue is far more likely to play a roll injuries late in the game even contact injuries. Players too tired to execute the perfectly tackling technique etc.

Reduced rotations and longer quarters.

We're obviously gassed both games but other clubs aren't. The rotations and quarter lengths isn't a massive thing. It's more that we're running to far. As has been discussed all week here. Hard spread and running kms further than our opponents by the end of the game, its just tiring the guys out as opponents punish the hard spread

Control the ball, control the pace of the game.

I think Zac was struggling by quarter time. Appeared to be in earnest conversation with the medical staff at the break.

Half time last week I had a look at the player stats on the AFL app and it said he was injured so I was quite surprised when he was out there in the 3rd qtr.

Jack Carroll broken thumb

Where is that coming from?

Haven't seen anything from the Club.

 

[Mr_Plow]

Where is that coming from?

Haven't seen nothing from the Club.

We usually find out 5-7 days after anything occurs. Probably Monday, at this stage.
