Injuries for the season

[Conan Troutman]

Been trying to work out the games missed from injuries. If anyone can fill in any missing info or make corrections, or have any other stats, that would be great. The only things I couldn't found out were if players other than Mooney got suspended (I can't remember who did or didn't), or if any of the top 22 (in my opinion) were dropped for a game - don't think any of these were - Rooke possibly?? And players who played VFL after returning from injury - don't know how I'd figure that out.

Totals games missed through injury - 130

Top 22 players games missed (incl. 2 finals)

Wojcinski..22
Sanderson..13
D.Johnson..12
S.Johnson..12
Harley.....11
Enright.....9
Ottens......9
King........6
Mooney......6 (+1 susp)
Chapman.....5
Playfair....4
Corey.......3
Hunt........2
Riccardi....2
Ling........1
Milburn.....1
Rooke.......1

Ablett......0
Bartel......0
Kelly.......0
Kingsley....0
Scarlett....0

Total.....119


These players I didn't include in the top 22, but they did play in '05 (I think - did not look at any stats for these players). I've added injured players I can remember, but probably missed some, and dont know how many games they missed.

Gardiner......3-4
Mackie........3-4
Tenace........possibly injured
Egan..........injured
Byrnes........(?)
Callan........6
N.Ablett......1
Koulouriotis..injured
Thurley.......possibly injured
Chambers......injured (knee)
Lonergan......possibly injured
McCarthy......9-11
Rahilly.......1 (at least)
Blake.........(?)
Haynes........1 (at least)
Slade.........missed large amount

I saw in the general section someone posted that Saints had 75 to Geelong 70 of they're top 22 missing through injury - so there must have been a heap of players playing VFL, or dropped?

Gardiner missed about 3 or 4 through injury, Makcie about the same, Callan probably about 6 weeks after his shoulder reco and Macca missed about 6 or 7 weeks first and then about another 3 or 4 after his second injury. Haynes also copped an injury at one stage, as did Koula, Egan and I think Tenace.

To the list of the "VFL" players you could also add Slade to the injured list as he missed quite a substantial period of the season. Also at times throughout the year Chambers was out (knee) and from memory Thurley and Lonergan may have also been.

Rahilly missed due to injury in at least one match as did Haynes.
