bet they were happy when they had a dream run with injuries in their flag years. This guy would have helped them enormously.Tigers board looks happy about this
About to post the same.Tigers board looks happy about this
Bs we did perhaps check how many games Cotchin Riewoldt Prestia Nank missed in ea of our premiership years several others toobet they were happy when they had a dream run with injuries in their flag years. This guy would have helped them enormously.
We had him for the 08 flag. Was great back then.Bs we did perhaps check how many games Cotchin Riewoldt Prestia Nank missed in ea of our premiership years several others too
Perhaps the hunger just ain't there anymore. Or is it no Dusty no Richmond?Get used to 'hamstring awareness' that takes 3-4 weeks to come good every time and injury reports that always downplay an injury initially only for it to linger for an extra couple of weeks longer than originally expected.
No doubt he was huge for us over the journey but whatever the program is now it doesn't seem to be working. And no, not just for the old guys. None of our guys seem to be able to run out a game anymore. Think we need a freshen up and new ideas. Looks like a win win to me.

It's called winning multiple flags. Bodies are never the same. We know the drill.Maybe.
We were a game off top 4 2 weeks ago without Dusty for the majority of the season and when we did have him he was nowhere near his best. Now he has also got a soft tissue injury, maybe the first in his career that I can remember. Lynch twice, Balta twice. Prestia 5 mintues into the season after supposedly rebuilding him and finally figuring out what body shape he needed. Not just that but any injury even impact injuries seem to take take longer for us to come back from compared to others.
Yep.I think it's always a bit difficult to judge your club's fitness guy. I remember last season a lot of Carlton supporters wanted Jack Russel gone for similar reasons, a guy who'd played a part in 6 premierships across 3 different clubs.
Was Burge 'the man' in Richmond's premiership years?
Yeah. Just feels like its time for a freshen up for us. No doubt he's one of the best in the industry. He helped time our runs for the 3 flags to perfection.It's called winning multiple flags. Bodies are never the same. We know the drill.
Looks like he didn't finish his education at Hawthorn before moving to Richmond.....Get used to 'hamstring awareness' that takes 3-4 weeks to come good every time and injury reports that always downplay an injury initially only for it to linger for an extra couple of weeks longer than originally expected.

In the last 2 years on our list, Grant Birchall was always listed as : Hamstring, 2-3 weeks!Get used to 'hamstring awareness' that takes 3-4 weeks to come good every time and injury reports that always downplay an injury initially only for it to linger for an extra couple of weeks longer than originally expected.
Yep.
