Looked a bad one. I’m not expecting to see him for a couple of months.
Hopefully they give Edwards a crack. Sink or swim time

Potentially, I tuned out of all AFL news etc after September.
How is a hamstring 8 weeks?!
How long is a piece of string?

Apply the Essendon tax.
I’m expecting crickets from the club for the next month then some bozo in the media will report that he has suffered a setback and then the club to finally release a statement saying he is on track to play in round 10

Lloyd missed the best part of a season with one.
Buckley’s career was cut short by chronic hamsting strains.

Career 
Lloyd’s wasn’t just a hamstring strain. He was ridden into the ground by a Doggies defender and had his hamstring tendon ripped off the bone, requiring surgery to repair.

Anzac Day recall
Yep, I was sitting right behind the doggies bench on the wing where it happened as he lunged for a mark.
We actually heard Garry Zimmerman say “■■■■, Lloyd in trouble here” or similar.
He got back to some good footy, but was always a bit more rigid and his incredible dynamic power and spring were permanently diminished.

Luckily we picked up a forward with Langford and Wright going down and Stringer leaving

My guess…
Langford will be marked as 4-6 weeks for the next 2-3.
He will be making “great progression” and expected to be back soon in the injury reports.
He will then be 2 weeks away for 3 weeks.
This strain will be an 8 week hammy. Just be honest… It’s a grade 3 tear. It’s high so recovery is longer. The club always lies.

Caddy is fine/will play for sure.
He copped a knock to his knee and had a bit of trouble running throughout the game. Was sore the following day but has progressed.
