Does anyone who goes to training or has any knowledge at all, know if Stephen Hill is in the gym or generally around training?
I know all the signs point to him being cooked but I for one would be very sad if we never saw him play for Freo again.
The forgotten man . . .

I agree. I’m taking it as a positive that he hasn’t retired yet. It’s got that bad.

Longmuir said yesterday Hill is up and running again, which was a positive sign.

 

[mightymouse75]

Hill needs to retire.
Complete waste if a spot & medical resources.
Rip Hilly.

 

[mightymouse75]

And Walker out with concussion from last weekend.

 

[go_the_dockers]

Treacy now in contention as a pressure forward?

There is a spot at half back with Young out. I hear he will come in and play on there. He could switch to back pocket if needed as well.

 

[G Mus]

So Treacy was pretty much ruled out yesterday, who got injured Tabs Darcy or Meek?

Why did you use 'or'? This is Freo.

Everyone should keep the Shuey situation in mind when we think about Sturt and when the trigger should be pulled on bringing him back to the top level.

Luke is out for half the season now with that hammy.

Ouch.

Although, with my unreasonably optimistic hat on, Sturt hasn't been suffering soft tissue injuries so his playing AFL vs limited minutes at WAFL shouldn't impact whether he is more or less likely to be injured.

For an experiment (don't actually do this) put a marble in one of your shoes so that you walk differently - similar to how you would be hampered by a moon boot or brace, walk around like that for a month.

Now go for a run. Your risk of imbalance issues leading to injury is in my belief worse from a structural injury with than a soft tissue.

But you're right, it's not like he is at risk of that ankle being rolled over again anymore than anyone else is.

Don't worry mate, that's just a placeholder response for Hill now. He's been up and running for years.

Hill did play most of last season though...

 

[arsesmart]

Maybe the running he's doing is running the player poker comp.

 

[MadMundy]

I get the love and wanting Hill back, but did we forget while playing most of last year he was pretty bad?

 

[Big Macs]

It’s the hope that kills you.

It is

Funnily enough, it's also what keeps me going

 

[Taylor]

I get the love and wanting Hill back, but did we forget while playing most of last year he was pretty bad?

I remember his composure and vision winning us the game against St Kilda.

Remember that congestion and handball forward to a free player that set up the chain to Schultz to seal it?

Pretty sure that was Humphrey

 

[Deanismyhero]

On the injury list with Soreness ?? Wtf does that even mean. Everyones sore

 

[Joao]

Wonder who the surprise 6 week injury candidate it will be today.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Wonder who the surprise 6 week injury candidate it will be today.

We dont hear about them till Thursday's

 

[Joao]

We dont hear about them till Thursday's

Why not both?

 

[Purpletown]

I saw Hill and Sam Sturt practicing for a 3 legged race at Cockburn yesterday.

Valente was watching.

Very funny post, thanks for the laughs

I did report from the game on Saturday that he looked a bit lame - possibly lingering effect of his OP?

Very good news week.

Effectively only 6 unavailable, and could be as low as 3 unavailable within a fortnight.

 

[mattis117]

Not sure why Switta is not mentioned actually, so one extra injury to those mentioned above
