McGovern Backup

[Oldmangrumpy]

pies have injury cloud with Howe but a replacement option in Reid or Moore.
Who is Eagles back up if he fails to get over the ribs/hip injury?
Or do they juice him to the max and gamble on it?

 

[WCErevival]

He will play. If by some chance he didnt they would play Schofield at FB, Barrass at CHB and bring in either Nelson or someone like Ah Chee.

Did this need a new thread?

 

[Magma]

yes and for 2 hours he wont feel a goddamn thing

Edwards would probably come in.

On Cox?

Barrass will take cox and beat him comfortably again.

It's a cork - that is a blood clot in the muscle. You can play through it, it's just painful. With an injection he won't feel the pain at all. Sunday will probably be quite painful for him though if it's a bad one

 

[Oldmangrumpy]

So there is no real replacement!
Big moments coming up, gotta get through the flight as well.
Intriguing

Dusty just had a cork didn't he?

Depends how much he has to drink

Dusty's cork was just above his knee, it bleed into the knee area which is what caused the stiffness and reduced mobility that effected him game day.

McGovern's cork isnt the same area so without that complication it shouldn't restrict his mobility too much and wont have the same negative impact.

Corky type injuries in close proximity to major joints, the knee is the largest weight bearing in the body which can reduce power in running and kicking, but a restricted hip joint and the whole leg is compromised , running, jumping and kicking

Almost every game he cops a hit and visibly shows his discomfort yet plays on after and next week.

When someone like Kennedy or shuey grimaces I worry about a injury. When gov grimaces i don't as he usually is fine 5 minutes later.

Expect gov to play. Cop a knock. Look hurt and then keep playing. Just like most weeks.

Except last week he didn't see the game out, took precautions for a whole qtr.
That's why it's interesting, lot a stake

Dude is not missing because of a corky. If we need to juice him up on legal pain killers and he can't walk for a month, so be it.

It’s not a corky. Not even close to one.

 

[Pie eyed]

Hope he does not get "squid legs" if they pump too much into him.....

No it’s not a blood clot in the muscle at all.
