The Essendon Hamstring

[The Dustbin]

Can't admit that there was some element of truth in what i said so once again you start playing the man.

The same article with the heading 'Knights says fatigue to blame'.

I could go on, but I've moved on. May I suggest you do the same.

And in another article in the HS


Matthew Knights said,
"In speaking to Bruce Reid, our club doctor, the majority of hamstring injuries will be attributed to fatigue."

That right there is some of the furniture that needs to be moved on.

I read that, and I agree with you.

Lovett might have done a soft tissue injury...

He has come back on strangely enough as he was limping off the ground a second ago...

+ Fletcher

I'm adding groins, abductors and anything else now.

The fitness staff are tracking for a score of 0 out of 10 this year. Heads must surely roll now.

Luckily these guys don't work in the emergency department of a hospital as they'd have to build a morgue next door!

Pretty sure there is something like that nearby the emergency ward of a hospital anyway! Or at least in the building.

+ Dempsey (stress fracture 8 weeks)

Wonder what the medical staff have to say...

 

[fatgutz]

bombers done too much in the ____ing pre-season, not used to hard work for along time sheedy made it too easy! now they have had to actually work in the pre-season that is why we are shit!

 

[The Dustbin]

Was The Weapon at EFC in 2008? Just saying...

 

[kelvin_sheedy]

An oldie but a goodie. Forgot about this.

Pretty much sums us up from 2001+. Just can't get our players on the park consistently.

This sounds familiar..................................... I thought Knights made it too easy?

Just reading back through my conversation with Ant... how embarrassing on my behalf. Wrote so angry and emotionally, I must have had a bad day and took out on poor Ant.

You angry then.

You seem composed now seeing that injuries are ten times worse than in 2008.

Interesting thing is reading about fatigue in 2008 - It's still happening.

 

[Doss]

Ten times worse than 2008?
Bit of an exaggeration, don't you think yaco? The day we only have 24 available for selection...

Side question, but what would happen if theoretically you had less than 22 players available for selection for a game?

 

[Chewy]

A veritable plague of hamstring injuries in 2012 and somehow Scott Gumbleton has escaped the dreaded curse.

Go figure

Had many players suffering collision type injuries in 2008 - Many were put in to pasture - Having op's to be ready for the pre-season. And it is worse in 2008 - Cause we are suffering the same problems.

You would always have 22 - You can upgrade rookies in exceptional circumstances

Haha I have come to accept the Essendon hamstring.

You could upgrade rookies with AFL permission. I believe it's even possible to use your VFL affiliates list with permission from both the AFL and opposing club if it got that bad.

but but THE WEAPON DID IT

Thank god. I was starting to worry people had actually convinced themselves this year was actually different to every other.

 

[Howard Moon]

maybe its time for the media to really ramp up the weapon malfunction story.. im surprised they didnt call licka and howletts injuries as 'potentially season ending' it sounds so much more dramatic!!! (and is only 4 weeks)
