Injury Corey Enright - ankle injury

[SJ]

Early talk is out for one week.

1-4 I think SJ. 268 games I dont like it when the mature guys start to get unlucky injuries.

2 weeks is the word from Balme.

From Balme you say?
I presume a presser has been set to announce his retirement from a career ending injury then.

luckily we have a bevvy of handy replacements, Rivers, Bews, Thurlow or even young Kolodjashnij could get a look in over the coming 2-3 weeks.

Enright has medial ankle strain - subbed out- always slower to settle than typical ankle - more likely to miss than play next week

I'd be more than chuffed if it's as minor as that. Hopefully the Doc is on the mark.

What was the injury last year? Same leg?

One man's misfortune is another man's opportunity!!

Thats a joke isn't it.

Opposition player fell on his ankle. Thats all.

Sounds unlucky to me.

Was a right medial knee injury last year iirc.

 

[RegHickeyStand]

Sounds unlucky to me.

Looked like he was injured as soon as the player landed on him. Could have happened to a first gamer.

We got good replacements. Not as good, though, obviously.

Thanks Big Tom

Hurts a lot more as you get older, though.

Don't remind me.

What did he do exactly, hes in my dream team :S

I think i might bench him.. so anywhere between 1-4 weeks?

 

[Geelong_Sicko]

Do they bother sticking anyone in a hyperbaric chamber (to oxygenate the blood and speed recovery) this early in the season?

Costs a bit I think, save for GF week.

I'm no specialist but it looked nasty, min 2 maybe 3-4
Having said that I have a mate that did a severe tear which required an op, then ur talking months

 

[rocker_oz33]

FUUU another injury on the plus side could give one of the young players a chance.

Should see him back just in time for finals then

 

[BlitzenTrapper]

The ankle injury suffered by champion defender Corey Enright during the third quarter was "a bit more serious than we'd like", but Scott was loathe to speculate on its severity.

From Cats website.
I'm hoping it's only a couple of weeks. But wouldn't be surprised if he's a month on the sidelines. Looked pretty painful.

 

[FredLeDeux]

should it have been a free kick to Enright? I can't quite remember the actual incident that led to the injury but didn't he have his feet taken out as the Brisbane bloke slid in underneath him?

Yes. Ump wasn't well-positioned to see it though, I don't think, from memory.
