Injury Jamie Elliott leaves training on crutches

[Saintly Viewed]

what did 4 weeks say to 2 weeks?

I'm weaker than you

Who's on First?

What?
He's on second.
I don't know on third

Tin hat comments are directed at those who think his back has gone and the club is covering up. More likely scenario is that our 'high performance' team is just shite or the injury was misdiagnosed, neither of which I've ever argued about.

It's quite startling really when you consider his ankle injury, which the initial talk out of the club was a few training sessions, is going to see him on the sidelines for longer than a guy that had glandular fever (Heeney).

 

[jmac70]

Has the club confirmed that it's his back and not his ankle?

If not, why are you gloating?

Have you sold enough tin hats to retire yet?

Nearly. I have a deluxe version I designed especially for you available for a bargain 6 installments of $99.95.

Guaranteed to prevent the club from reading your thoughts.

Is he still leaving training on crutches, or is it time to change the thread title?

thought the thread was about tin hats

So its hardly going to get any better if every time he trains he leaves on crutches FFS!

Pass the tin hat around and by the man a palanquin!

Wow. Reading the thread on your board during the preseason it seemed like he'd be cherry ripe to play by now. By the way you're talking he's going to be in the system for 4 years with no debut. That's horrific.

He's stuffed. Even if he eventually gets on the park, burst speed is the main weapon to his game. Without that he'll be an injury-prone plodder with average disposal and below average ability to read the play.

 

[Kilmo]

We should have picked Merrett.

Anyway, can't wait for Jamie to come back!
All this club lying stuff is annoying but to be honest, it made me feel a lot more relaxed knowing that for each of the past 5 weeks he's only been one week away!

Elliot needs a month in the VFL, been out a long time the boy just needs to be eased into it.

I think 2 VFL games will do it.
Just needs to build some fitness.
He won't spend anytime on the ball, so can get up to standard (for forward) very quickly.

He will need a new set of crutches soon...

Witt's webbing getting infected due to lack of Savlon cream basically killed his season and career at our club. He's at Gold Coast now because of it. He was our first choice ruck when that happened. As for Langdon, yeah that takes some doing when you are limited to the exercise bikes. Slipped in the bath ? or perhaps the club went for a variation from the "quad" injury excuse?

Any thoughts on Will's quad injury Sco?

Ehh whilst it didn't help Witts, Grundy being a much better ruckman is the reason he's not at Collingwood.

Wifi poses a security risk. You don't want your brain hacked do you?

you sure your knowledge on alcohol doesn't count?

I forget most of it within 24 hours.

Call me an old conservative, but I reckon Jamie is doing well even to be training/running after his back operation. I would have been rapt if he miraculously was available for Round 1 but I was really expecting Round 12-13 before we got to see him back in the forward line.

The wait sucks, but the good things are worth waiting for.

In that case, yes, there is wifi built in. When can I expect your first downpayment?

Just send me your bank account details...

I only accept paypal and credit cards, not direct debit sorry.

I agree with Tony Jones. The club is full of bullshit.
