Pendlebury: I'll probably miss a couple of games.

AFL.com.au: "Pendlebury could miss up to 4 games"

🤪🤪🤪

Well with 4 games inside 13 days, a 2 week injury comfortably adds up to 4 games.

Bad result for us. I would say we now have 3 of our best 5 players out for an extended period.

We have easy games ahead but a really tight fixture. If we can come out of this period with at least 3 wins, we'll be very well placed.

No game is easy .

Any news on Langdon? Surely he gets a game towards the end of the season. on July 8th, he was a 'week or two' away from full training. Man this club does my head in sometimes when it comes to transparency with injuries.

Tom's injury is chronic - bone on bone. I spoke to him down the coast beginning of this year - lovely bloke. But he was not optimistic about his ability to see out a season.

Did he say whether the idea was to get him up for finals? A bit like the Lions used to do with Clark Keating.

I know Pendles will be putting a positive spin on it, but I don't think that it's at all ridiculous to think four games. Even a minor quad strain is usually 3 weeks so and given we have four matches in that time I think it's reasonable to think he will miss at least three of them - Fremantle, Sydney and Adelaide. I certainly wouldn't be rushing him back as a recurrence would almost certainly see him out for the remainder of the home and away season

Agree with all that bar Sier. I like Sier and he adds a different dimension to our midfield, which we sorely need. He just needs a full 2-3 seasons under his belt. Too much stop start is really frustrating to watch.
 
Langdon to play the scratch match this weekend
Cal Brown prob could miss this week with the rolled ankle.

Sounds very positive news about Langdon's recovery, and even better, he looks almost cherry ripe in the vision of him training. It's not all doom and gloom ladies and gentlemen!

A very welcome relief, especially since not so long ago many people thought he was done.

Indeed. Even earlier on this page supporters were saying Tom was done and will retire. We are condutioned to expect the worst, given our abysmal injury run over the last several years. And if there is an absence of news from the club it's himan nature to fill in the gaps ourselves with bad expectations.
We all need to be more positive and hopeful, me included.

Good news feathered friends. Tom was our second best player on GF day 2018. He can’t and won’t replace Howe but I can’t think of any better player to plug the gap. Earlier this year Jack Riewoldt was raving about Langers on that show with the guy who aims lower than the lowest common denominator aka the magnificent Robbo. Poor Mark missed his calling - to work in a circus.
