I've heard Hurley is out for the year with an infection as part of his recent op.

Admittedly, I don't really keep tabs on the Essendon injury list.Have you been asleep? This news is close to 2 months old.
He's been gradually improving but would be surprised if we saw him play this year. Lost alot of conditioning/size.

No he wouldn't, he was poor last year, his foot skills have deserted him and he can't/won't man up on anyone. As awful it is for him that his health isn't great at the moment it's good for the team that he isn't around taking up the spot of a younger player. The Hurley of 2014-18, the years he was a permanent backman, is gone and never coming back unfortunately.Free agent end of next year.
He might as well chase a flag if he has any time left potentially playing.
Would be a handy back up for a Port Adelaide or Brisbane for a year or two

Not knifing him at all, just a realistic assessment of where he is at. He's contracted for next season as well. He's unlikely to play this year so what does playing him next year achieve? He's done, would love him be a star until his late 30s like Fletcher but it isn't going to happen.Wow, been your best defender for the last 15 years and your just happy to knife him immediately.
Well i tell you what.infection is a mother fooker.no bullshit i have had 5 hip replacements in 4.5 years,been on crutches for last 3 months and have another hip replacement next weekI've heard Hurley is out for the year with an infection as part of his recent op.
Someone on our board tells a similar story. Everything has to be removed and cleaned out and then put back in again in what is a horribly invasive surgery. Sounds like a nightmare to have to live through so best wishes with your recovery. I think Hurley just had a bit of a clean out and may have had a labral tear.Well i tell you what.infection is a mother fooker.no bullshit i have had 5 hip replacements in 4.5 years,been on crutches for last 3 months and have another hip replacement next week
I would get cabin fever if not for big footy.
Yeah that was me. l had the metal removed on Feb 17 and plastic put in but I dont have a hip joint as such , the plastic hits pelvis with every motion.Someone on our board tells a similar story.

A bit unnecessary this. I didn’t know he was this badly unwell.Have you been asleep? This news is close to 2 months old.

I think it stands to reason if you’re going to post something on the Scandals/Rumours board you’d take 3 seconds to google it First. Been plenty of news articles regarding it, and it’s brought up during the coverage of most of our games.A bit unnecessary this. I didn’t know he was this badly unwell.
I think it stands to reason that if you don't have anything to add to a post outside of criticising the OP then perhaps consider how invaluable your time is.I think it stands to reason if you’re going to post something on the Scandals/Rumours board you’d take 3 seconds to google it First.

What sort of daycare wonderful fairyland do you think the internet is?
I’m suggesting that not playing the man which is literally a rule on this forum should be adhered too. My bad. Let’s all be rebels.So instead we should all applaud and say wow what a rumour, great stuff OP?!

But I clearly did add something. I confirmed his “Rumour” and provided additional detail. You on the other hand, just seem keen to get offended on someone else’s behalf.I think it stands to reason that if you don't have anything to add to a post outside of criticising the OP then perhaps consider how invaluable your time is.
About as much as you have. We should both cease posting.But I clearly did add something. I confirmed his “Rumour” and provided additional detail. You on the other hand, just seem keen to get offended on someone else’s behalf.
What exactly have you contributed in your 3 posts here?
Yeah that was me. l had the metal removed on Feb 17 and plastic put in but I dont have a hip joint as such , the plastic hits pelvis with every motion.
Unfortunately when they put the plastic spacer in my femur got broken. Next week I will have a new metal hip prosthesis put back in and the femur fractures will be wired at the same time.They could not fix femur at the time because it would have meant putting metal back in.
I have been in a shitload of pain but at least I have something that can be fixed thankfully.
After next week I will get back on track. At the moment I can spend roughly 30 mins per day on the crutches does fook with me head a bit. but anyway I will get there.
thanks Dero
Not since 2012 anyway.Admittedly, I don't really keep tabs on the Essendon injury list.
Its pretty average but there are lots worse than me. Counting down the days next Wednesday hip back in and I will be pretty good after that providing infection has fooked off. All indications are that it has.thx Billythat sounds hectic bud, wishing you a successful procedure and recovery
