Ellis latest injury is a calf so would think he pinged that in his rehab program, which still does not bode well for him

To be fair to Ellis the hamstring injury turned into a calf like halfway through.his calves have nearly ruined his career once already.

Apologies. But I'm not sure either is very good. When his calf can't make it through a rehab for his hamstring it's a real worry.

That's a good list. Colledge is contracted to 2016 so unlikely he will be delisted IMO.

Others (in my order of likelihood):
Newman
Maginnes
Powell
Ellis
Butler
Hill

injuries will be a key factor for a few of these.

I would be shocked if we delisted Newman after everything.

He was still taken with a second round pick only a few years ago. He'd have to do something incredibly dumb (again) or show a terrible attitude to training. The injury he has atm isn't really a worry either, being a finger rather than a knee/hamstring.

Newman also injured his hand through contact, rather than Ellis with a calf. Up until that point he was doing very well in the wafl and probably had a call up in line before josh hill.

Soft tissue injuries for Ellis have been a big issue for his whole career, but I can see him getting another year if he can break into the team once he is back. The below article is an interesting read, albeit a dated article. Suggests that Ellis might pull the pin himself if he can't keep on the field.

You're probably right.

Maginness - Third year extension.

I swear he was just in my lab class at uni or it must have been his doppleganger. If it was he better hope he gets an extension because I cant see his outside career going too well

Ughh Tunbridge keeps escalating, out for season. I hope he survives the year. Good news otherwise

 

[Chris_6678]

Brown (knee) season
Mackenzie (knee) season
Tunbridge (ankle) season
McGinnity (wrist) 4-6 weeks
Lamb (knee) 3 weeks
Cavka (foot) test
Darling (foot) test
Hutchings (back) test
Main (back) test
Rosa (hamstring) test
Sheed (hand) test

Well at least we will not have to worry about Mcginnity for a few weeks.

Wrist injury?
The MC won't be happy about that...

 

[Chris_6678]

Also Newman is ready this week if he gets through training as it was mentioned in the the injury update on the website.

 

[Quinz]

Tunbridge. Gets a game, looks pretty good, won't play again for the year. And will probably get cut post-season.

Football's a cruel game.

 

[woosha24]

Excluding the season-enders, thats a pretty alright list. Spots are going to be tight after the bye.

 

[bodazoka]

Lamb (knee) 3 weeks
Darling (foot) test
Hutchings (back) test
Rosa (hamstring) test
Sheed (hand) test

That is looking pretty damn good going into the bye. Spots up forward and through the midfield will be at a premium for the first time in years!

Just watched the interview with Vozzo, Tunbridge season is over because they decided to put him into surgery for his shoulder, so its nothing to do with his ankle. Wouldn't have thought they would end his season early like that if they were still deciding whether or not to delist him.

Post Bye is really tough fixture-wise (apart from the Dees)

Adelaide
Collingwood
Sydney
Suns
Hawks
Freo
WB
Adelaide

So we will need to stay healthy to get through that.

 

[WCEswift]

Darling (foot) test

A Morabito agrees

 

[Byron_Clanger]

Literally zero need to rush Darling back into the team, have him play in the WAFL for a month to get some fitness, k's and ninja flips into the legs

 

[Suma Magic]

Awesome to have up to 7 players returning in the 1 week (8 including Yeo). Best improvement to the list all season.

 

[LordHaart]

Sounds like Darling will go through WAFL (he's been out for a while, so far enough), but Rosa and Sheed should be contenders for the 22 this week. Yeo a definite in and Bennell and Colledge the likely outs.

If Yeo comes in for Colledge I can see Rosa coming in for Bennell and playing off half back.

 

[Ochre]

Great to see that Darling is back for East Perth

Quinz

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Well that's helpful

You can add Cavka to that list

 

[HoneyBadger35]

McGinnity out six weeks with a wrist injury per AFL.com

Edit: you're all across it, god you guys are good

 

[Keys]

Well that's helpful

In other news the sky is blue

 

[Keys]

A question re tun bridge

How exactly does a player in rehab for an ankle injury **** his shoulder

 

[The Falcon Strike]

Guessing darling and Cavka back through the ressies to control minutes

Hope the other lads don't want to come to the bench too often
