So see him next season then

Sound better at least, hope Matt Cameron doesn't come out with 2-3 weeks....

Cool, so he won't be rested next week he will have hamstring tightness, Swans footy always thinking ahead.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

He will be fine

I blame the podcast no more mention of injuries worst case scenario

Horse presser ?

There's a clip on Fox Sports News

 

[vonn]

Swans coach John Longmire said Kennedy had complained of hamstring tightness in the first quarter and was unsure about the star midfielder's prospects until he gets scans in the coming days.

"He just had some hamstring tightness," Longmire said.

"He didn't feel it go, but it felt tight at the back end of the first quarter.

"He went out at the start of the second and tried to get it going and was still a bit tight in his hamstring, so we subbed him off.

"If Josh Kennedy has a tight hamstring, he's coming off."

"If Josh Kennedy has a tight hamstring, he's coming off."

Makes sense

 

[Dangas]

Fingers crossed guys....won't know until the start of week.

 

[Dan87]

Horse presser pretty optimistic

 

[jokiKan]

He didn't feel anything go, just tightness in hammy, so it's not a Grade 2 or 3. So most likely a Grade 1 tear which is 3 weeks approx. Grade 1 tears will often feel like tightness but in fact they are small tears.

We will just have to win without him, hopefully Michell comes in and plays well

 

[Tuco]

Win one for confirmation bias then. I'll sleep easy until the scan results then.

 

[Parkerman]

"If Josh Kennedy has a tight hamstring, he's coming off."

No ifs and buts....

 

[The King!]

Hes fine bet he plays

 

[Sydney Bloods]

See work nights coach shitty little league (*ers won btw, hopefully next week's games a little later) pass out exhausted on the lounge before the first bounce, check bigfooty before afl.come.au

And get confronted with a Kennedy injury thread. * you all I nearly died.

Hopefully just hamstring tightness. McGlynn doubtful for next week.

Have a listen to post match press conference with Longmire re latest on injuries. http://www.afl.com.au/news/2014-08-16/buddy-firms-for-coleman-medal

i think i overheard him say that he felt tightness early and did something to it and it got worse. so id say he tore it, whether or not its a bad tear is the question

Let's hope not too serious.

Not sure only thing i heard was Horse saying Josh wasn't confident in his ability to run out the game hence subbed.

 

[The King!]

Horse said maybe he could of played on perhaps but in the lead so didnt bother


Now horse i will trust u because it suits me

But i suspect you will play ducks n drakes

 

[RW]

He will be fine

I've changed the thread title to reflect what we know at the moment.

I was sitting near the bench, I had a look over when Joey came to the bench.
