Sloane, 23, was accidentally poked in the eye during Adelaide’s clash with Fremantle at Patersons Stadium on Saturday night. Further examination has revealed a tear in the midfielder’s retina, which will keep him sidelined for at least two games.

Any more injuries from that game?

Gah, when the heck did that happen?

Season 2013 is a complete write off. Gives a chance for a young midfielder to come in...

Really want to see Lyons, Kerridge, Crouch all given lots of time on the ball this weekend.

Step back from the ledge Stabby. Its only a two week injury.

 

[Skippy231]

ffs, well at least Grigg will get a game

 

[Rollerball]

Damn. I remember seeing that happen and worried about something like this, but he wasn't off the ground for long so though he must have been ok.

 

[weekend at bernies]

NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Tex Support]

****.

I had no idea he knew how to miss games...

 

[footy4ever]

You have got to be ****ing joking.

Shit year. Shit luck. Shit everything. ....But why doesn't something like this surprise me?...oh that's right,..because the Showdown is so winnable, the footy gods just want to put another hurdle in our way to make it more difficult.

Thread needs the old 'FUUUUU....' man image.

Wow! Get a good season with injuries, get hammered the next season! Guess that means they will take a bit more of a chance with Dangerfield if he is close to 100%.

 

[Damp Squarie]

Farque!
Next thing you'll be telling me is that Poort are injury free

Lucky he isn't playing for Port then as our dreaded two week injuries go on for ever.

 

[RePete]

Was devastated to hear the news today. But he has played his guts out the last 2 weeks and I reckon he kind of needs a rest. Seems to be the kind of player that will come back after a week off re-energized and full of run and just destroy, so hopefully that will happen. Danger coming in kind of cancels it out as well and opens up a spot for another midfielder to come in, probably Grigg.

I have had to update my avatar because of this...

We really haven't been hammered with injuries this year either. It just feels like it right now, with Dangerfield, Rutten, Sloane, Walker & Reilly all currently either on the sidelines or just about to return.

 

[Vader]

Good grief.. Hope he gets better soon. At least we should get Dangerfield back this week - and it opens up a vacancy for one of our younger mids to have a shot (Kerridge or Grigg).

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Buggar ... but it's not like it's going to cost our season.

With Danger, Sloane, Walker, Thompson (is injured and playing), Rutten.
Is that our best 5 players? Would have to be close.

lol you have no injuries!

Apparently it happened when cmndstab went in for an autograph after the game. Stabbed him in the eye accidentally (with his pen I think...)

 

[Geoffa32]

Like the look of Grigg against Geelong. Seems to have a similar tenacious streak in him.

Losing Sloane is not good, but hope Grigg comes in for him.

I would appreciate it if you left such obvious slander until after the court case

 

[kaysee]

Shame. The best footballer on your list.

Law of averages means someone will get "his" share of the ball... Crouch for another stellar game?

 

[jackster83]

Shame. The best footballer on your list.

Subtle troll noted.

 

[SydCrow]

time for Grigg to show his stuff

 

[SydCrow]

Ross Lyon poked him on the way out of the post-game presser
