Lets put Trent in a wheel chair and play him in the forward line...He will probably kick straighter then our other forwards

 

[betterthanu]

Any updates on Trent Hentschel, is he up to running yet, light training?

Hes been running for a while. I think hes starting a little bit of agility work

 

[absolutezero]

That's good to hear. That injury looked like it was going to prevent him from ever walking on it again on first viewing!

 

[-VC-]

I remember when it happened and at first they were saying dislocated knee cap, six weeks, which would be the end of the season for him and we were all jumping all over that hoping that that's all it was. We all knew how bad it was straight away and were hoping 'season' would be it.

Nathan Bassett

The advertiser says 1-2 weeks, but I don't generally have too much faith whenever the advertiser reports on injuries. ie Bode was 2 weeks from injury for about 4 weeks.

How is Bassett progressing? Would be come straight into the team when/if fit?

I think he'll add a lot to our team, but he'd have to be fit and would need to come bag soon to even play 50% game time to get a couple of games under his belt.

I think he good be the player that just adds enough stability, flexability and opportunity to make match winning positional changes on game day.

Craig mentioned the Hound is no chance this week. A possibility the next, but unlikely.

 

[jenny61_99]

But who do you drop for the Hound if he was to be ready to play - bearing in mind he hasn't played for how many weeks?

 

[Mad Dog]

Mattner and possibly Massie would find themselves in trouble again.

Once Trent, Biglands, Bode and Bassett are fit next year - there are going to be some tough decisions to make.......and that's with Pez, Kenny, Young Mick, and Douggie already out of the side atm

 

[fightingdreamer88]

Doughty has been ruled out of the match but then he was never going to play, and Thompson missed training with a groin complaint but is expected to line up.

 

[21knights]

Anyone got any info on Porps?

 

[- PC -]

I heard a rumour quite a few are nursing headaches... suggestions are that recovery may take 8 weeks

From AFC.com.au

Adelaide defender Nathan Bock last night had a hip arthroscopy to rectify an ongoing problem he battled in the second half of the season.
Bock, who played 22 of a possible 23 games in 2007 for a total of 64 AFL games, will return to full training in January.
And Luke Jericho will tonight have a hernia operation. He will be ready to train when the players return for pre-season work in November.

From AFC.com.au

so Jericho is staying.....

 

[NikkiNoo]

so Jericho is staying.....

not necessarily, just that he needs a hernia op and is currently on our list - similiar to Judd - West Coast paid for his operation as it was already planned for end of season, but he is leaving WC.

 

[Campbell's Chunky]

This thread should be in the Locker Room I reckon.

 

[Dandy_GO]

I'd say it's worth starting a new one for this season - get rid of the clutter.

Agreed! A new winged crows thread for each season is the go IMHO.
