Injury Daniel Kerr Injury: How big a loss?

[bigburger]

4-6 weeks according to ch7

So do we give him 8 and take advantage of the LTIL and elevate a Stevenson or Strijk?

No. Definately not. When your on the LTI you can't even play WAFL.

 

[bighit006]

Going in for surgery, out for 3 months....****

Just reported after the Hawthorn v Collingwood game.

 

[Opportunity Cost]

Out for 3 months. Same injury as Riewoldt.

 

[JADED]

12 weeks confirmed from the club tonight. LTI for sure.

Perhaps if he ran a little more last week his hamstrings wouldn't have been so tight

 

[Eastern Rangers]

Stevenson to debut.

Plus Hurn returns?

 

[lewigie]

**** yeah.

For Stevenson debuting, I mean.

 

[thesmallprint]

F***!

11 games in each of the last two seasons, this was supposed to be his year

Confirmed where?

Just wrap him up for this season and let him get his body 120%. Elevate Stevenson for the rest of the season and then Strijk or Cockie.

Bring him back next season and try to get him out of the middle and into alternative roles and positions.

 

[Opportunity Cost]

Confirmed where?

I saw it on the "5th quarter".

 

[Catch 22]

Good riddance to bad rubbish.

The boy himself sounded quite happy that the hammy had pinged. Easier money than he's been earning for the past three years.

 

[Kerr04]

He will never get back to his best ever again

Ugh, and umm... when exactly did he sound happy about it? Looked pretty devastated coming of the field to me.

Wow you sound like a massive douchebag.

Trolling other teams threads by celebrating key player injuries, all class.

On topic this is terrible news.

another freo flog....totally obsessed with the Eagles.

Trust me, we get our fair share of obsessed West Coast 'flogs' on our board too. Don't know what his problem was though.

Just heard on Fifth Quarter after the Pies Hawks game that Kerr was out for 3 months and it was worse than first thought. Anyone heard the same thing? Glad he's not playing in the derby, but a shame that it's going to be such a long time before he comes back in. I wonder if he'll ever hit form again...

 

[CursoryMercenary]

I'm not surprised we got the estimation wrong about the injury. We are a bit off in every department this year it seems.

According to the Sunday Times (put on website at 11.29 pm), they quote Daniher as a 4-6 week injury ....

.... so it's probably career ending ....

 

[Dylan82]

Out for at least half the season at best now.

Unfortunately due to the way he plays and the attention he gets every week, his body is older than his age.

It is time to start thinking about utilising Kerr as a forward pocket player rather than a clearance midfielder.

At least then he would not have to deal with a tag, the constant hammerings at the base of packs and would actually have some space to be able to use the ball via foot rather the pressure handball.

I think if we don't seriously reconsider his role in the team, he will burn out early and be lame by the time we are meant to be making a premiership push.

That would be a terrible waste.

 

[faisan]

Kerr will be a big loss but we made our run at the end of last season without him as wel.

The main issue will be that Priddis will probably get tagged each week now and this will affect our clearances.

Hopefully we have some young guys step up in his absence.

 

[Eastern Rangers]

That was the initial figure. The story that the HUN is rolling with is 12 weeks.

What is the status on shuey?

 

[Denton52]

Some of these guys are doing too much running and changing direction. They really should just bulk up, stand on the spot, wait for a tap from Naitanui and Cox, dispose of the ball to the first person they see and never move quicker than half pace.
