Injury Fremantle 2023 Injury Thread

Fyfe has six weeks until he starts preseason.

Not sure what that has to do with his shoulder being fractured?

It’s pretty obvious….

he’s been down at the nets bowling too many right arm medium pacers to Elyse Perry

Is that what they call it these days.

 

[Yeti]

Meh..

 

[Scham]

Not ideal, but a delayed start isn't the end of the world either. Others will need to pick up the slack.

I reckon this further proof Fyfe future is in the forward line. His shoulder wont get any better at 30.

He hasn't got much time left if he stays in the middle and gets battered every game

Not if he can't lift his arms above shoulder height.

Not for me mate. White/Blonde not everyones cuppa.

Be careful. Show some respect to our future Premiership Captain's Mother!

Another failed operation.

Why are we using the same quacks?

I think he used the same surgeon that fixed his other shoulder last time. If you remember he had all those problems with his shoulder slipping out early in his career.

Hadn't been a problem since but he got absolutely smashed in that contest last year with his arm up. Would have stuffed anyone up.

 

[BigRang]

Probs be good in a way. Less contact/more miles in legs. Might be good for him to start getting a bit lighter as the years go on now?

Well that’s suboptimal isn‘t it

I love The West. How awesome is Nat Fyfe:

Fyfe missed two games initially with the shoulder problem, then felt he could play out the season but apart from a 321 disposal effort in his milestone match against Hawthorn in Launceston he was well below his best in most games and frequently looked uncomfortable before he and the club called a stop to the season after he injured the shoulder again against Sydney at Metricon Stadium in round 19.

This man could walk on water.

 

[DragoDelph]

Eh. Would rather have him for the second half of the year over the first.
probably just a clean up anyway.

 

[Superkoops]

Another failed operation.

He used the best in the business - travelling over to Melbourne. Sometimes there are complications. They have identified the issue and hopefully get it addressed. I assume he’s heading back over to Melbourne which will be tricky.

Fremantle's go to surgeon it seems:

considering the West had already provided the relevant facts relating to the injury in an earlier article a few days ago, call me cynical but interesting click bait follow up article coinciding with the DUI by WCE Jermaine Jones.

Ain’t that the truth

 

[Superkoops]

Drama at it’s best. I do agree with the surgeon no need to rush him back. If that means he has a later start to the year then so be it.

Brodie might get an early debut.

 

[Minz]

Fyfe "at risk of osteoarthritis"? Guaranteed, I would think.

 

[Taylor]

I'm amazed at how much Crawford can move after his career given how absolutely hobbled most of them are by the time it's done.
