Re: Dempsey - broken leg

Triple m said that it was his calf that copped a knock and are suspecting a crack in the bone. They also said the Essendon doctors were considering to send Dempsey for Xrays.

Re: Dempsey - broken leg

Fletcher with a groin, Slattery with a groin and Demsey with a possible cracked fibula bone or something to that effect according to MMM.

I think Slats is alright.

yeah slats is alright, but to add to that laycock was having some issues with his back earlier i think..

quick question to everyone if dempsey cannot play more then 1 or 2 games next year due to injury do we cut our losses and trade/delist him?

if that happens it will be 4 years on the list for barely any games. it would have to be considered
 
Re: Dempsey - broken leg

This is becoming a joke.

For all his talent (and he has bucket loads), unless he can get his body right, he is just a wasted spot on our list.

We really need to look at the types of players we draft. Too many injuries to younger players.

Agree totally! We cant afford to keep having Courtney on our list anymore. His body will never get right. Getting injured every 2nd game! He runs & just breaks! Time to cut our losses.
 
Re: Dempsey - broken leg

If the same happens next year you've got to wonder if he has the body to play AFL football.

He reminds me of Paul Lynch who played for Geelong. He had similar smarts and skills to Mercs, but could never ever stay fit.

A real shame as players like that are what we need in the game- exciting skillful and smart.

No Doubt! I love Coutney's silky skills & his pace but his body is like a match stick. Countless hammy's, stress fractures, now this fractured fibula just from chasing an opponent! After today it could be the end of Courtney.

... If we get rid of him another team pick him up and he starts to be consistent and gets 25 touches a game. Glad you aren't on the comittee.. Be patient guys. I promise he is worth waiting for. Just like Gumbie and Neagle.
