Injury HFC Injury watch 2022

Surely BB retires at year end? Is he just coming back for a retirement game? Otherwise why take the risk.

 

[TheFourPillars]

Sounds like both BB and Lynch are doing reconditioning/training block as much as anything else...

BB certainly is Lynch still hasn't cleared concussion protocols

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Will Day missed last week due to health and safety protocols, yet is listed as “test”?

Should be listed as available

Whenever players need to complete all the training sessions to be passed fit to play they mark them down as a “test”.

 

[streetspirit]

Chad out for two after a training soft tissue injury

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

 

[StillAtLarge]

Put Worps out to pasture for the season. No point getting him to play under duress, have the reco and be fit & firing for 2023

 

[Lickmesocks]

Surgery tomorrow. Get it done and sorted Hawthorn and don’t make the same mistake we made with Gunston.

 

[Jaeger]

Surgery tomorrow. Get it done and sorted Hawthorn and don’t make the same mistake we made with Gunston.

Is that confirmed? I heard yesterday that he needs a reconstruction, but they are going to try manage it through the season like with Reeves.

 

[eldorado]

Have the Hawks skipped this week's injury update?

 

[rei154]

Have the Hawks skipped this week's injury update?

Have noticed they do this occasionally when there's a big injury concern/announcement coming.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

That’s 4 season ending injury’s now.

 

[TylerDurden]

And Frost now.

 

[Blackhawk42]

Great news about Lynch!

Could we wrap Reeves shoulder up in cotton wool and play Big Boy and Max for the remainder of the season?

 

[Simon Crawshay]

And Frost now.

Wingard at 4-5 weeks for a hamstring!

Id say this probably means he is done for the year unfortunately.

 

[Simon Crawshay]

And Frost now.

Our depth is going to be tested big time these last 6 weeks it seems.

 

[Steven Tyler]

Our depth is going to be tested big time these last 6 weeks it seems.

Perfect

Try guys on the fringes of selection to see what they have

If we win, great

If we don’t, great (from a draft perspective)

 

[TassieGrown]

Bramble done as well for the year, back injury

 

[Lickmesocks]

Gunston also out this week which is understandable.

We want/need a top 3 pick this year ladies and gents. No point sliding down the pecking order again and then scrambling because the top talent is gone.

I am expecting to see a lot of season ending clean ups about to occur over the next 2-3 weeks .

 

[Kuuz]

Bramble done as well for the year, back injury

Man, seeing Bramble out for the year just as he was hitting some form is rough

I think we want to pump as many games into Reeves as possib;e

I agree, however it's been mentioned that he still likely requires surgery.

Could the club get him in early if we have two other rucks on the list to pick from?

If he still requires surgery they had better do it asap, not wait to see how it goes, then during preseason find out he needs surgery, missing the early rounds next year
I’ll lose my $hit if this happens

He will have surgery at the end of the year is my guess. Whatever happens its the doctors and wishes of the player that are considered

Correct. Send all players right now who need surgery, clean ups or whatever and have them back on day 1. Play kids and take our medicine now and get a top 3 pick.

No floating around overseas for 2 months and then come back and then miss 2 months of training.

Get them all in NOW.
