Injury Injury thread 2019

[Suma Magic]

I got a bit of info from this article http://www.afl.com.au/news/2018-12-08/wheres-your-club-at to put together a preliminary injury list.

Training watchers may have info to be added in.

The timelines are just my guesses based on the article.



Edited for feedback and the Eagles' site article posted.

Cameron was a fractured toe.

 

[Keys]

Cameron broke his toe after a mate drove a car over it

Curious that Oallen wasn’t on that list as he’s done nothing more than run laps so far

Your return to training date for Edwards is optimistic- I’d have him similar to Venables on your spreadsheet

Thought I’d just not been noticing TB out there, turns out he hasn’t been on the track until yesterday doing stretches

Schofield was in a green vest yesterday & only did some light laps before heading back inside.
Something must be up with him.

 

[Suma Magic]

Thanks everyone I've updated it.

Gaff's suspension applies to Rounds 1 & 2 but I think he can still play in the JLT series.

Stating the obvious but that would suck.

I think you got the X and Y axis mixed up

Yeah, you're probably right. I did it to fit in a longer time line but it does seem a bit weird.

They expected his usual level of fat to keep the ribs stable. The unexpected weight loss meant a steel plate was inevitable.

Gov puppy fat has the consistency of reinforced kevlar.

Underrated fat

Here is the tweet

He went into the GF with the ribs - legendary effort

 

[Truckosaurus]

If the scar pinches in he might look like he has a stomach muscle. Win win!

 

[kempy]

I assume that it was a dinner plate that he had inserted ...

I just came here to say the same thing. If he wasn't already a legend, he certainly cemented the fact with his heroic efforts in the GF. I don't recall him wincing once - tough bugger, as I know what a broken rib feels like. Big effort big fella.

WEST Coast forward Josh Kennedy has no concerns post-season shoulder surgery will impact his 2019 campaign, with the dual Coleman medallist declaring he will be ready to go for the JLT Community Series.

Kennedy has relished a gradual build-up this summer, easing his way into his 14th season after nagging leg injuries in recent years.

"I'll be pretty good for JLT. We've got an intraclub coming up around that time as well, so I'm hoping to be ready for that," Kennedy said.

"It has been real good it's nothing to do with my feet or my legs. I've been able to do a bit more running and get a bit more base (fitness) … and losing some weight is probably the big thing, getting a bit older now.

"Well ahead of where I was last year."

It’ll probably come out next week that he’s legally considered dead, but for now a positive on the Josh Kennedy nagging injury front.

 

[Avalor]

The mallet finger injury of Ainsworth goes a long way to explaining his terrible ball drop and disposal in 2018. I hope the surgery can fix the problem, and we might have a gun mid - another one.

 

[Suma Magic]

An attempt at an injury spreadsheet based on the articles from the club this week. Let me know if I've missed anything (I probably have).

hackdorn thinks nic nat back by round 10.....

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Apparently straight from the horse’s mouth during his presser today, so slightly more reliable than the usual Hagdorn injury news
