And stuck with the corpse for 2025 AND 2026.
Has Guelfi had a world’s first hamstring replacement operation?
*Touch wood
Pretty healthy list with only one best 22 player injured. And not long term in that.

Definitely a positive that Parish has such a long contract. We may get to see him play again before it expires.

Aren’t you nice.
I tell you what, I’d never have picked Langford and Guelfi to miss through soft tissue injuries, whilst Ridley and Parish have a terrible pre-season.
Groundhog Day with some of the senior guys. Im honestly just shocked Reid made it through round 1 tbh.

Is Ridley soft tissue? I thought concussion.
Hasn’t Langford also been pretty resilient after his hamstring operation a few years ago?
You are correct my mistake was thinking about Parish’s pre-season issues.
I get a bit worried about Langford now coming toward 30 with a fair bit of scar tissue.
Yeah with Langford from memory he had heaps of hamstring issues but they found some underlying issues that were rectified with surgery (something to do with the way the muscles had actually developed an insertions).
It will be interesting if there is any relation to the leg that had surgery or if it is even the same leg.

We arent officially past the round 1 injuries until the team for the next game is announced.
It’s the same leg.
No way he’s back in 6 per the club update given it’s a hamstring that’s been operated on and he limped off…

I won’t automatically assume it will be worse given his hamstrings have been good for a few years now after surgery. The hamstring isn’t just one muscle so it could still be unrelated even if it’s the same leg.
But I’m sure there is some concern.

Injuries are already mounting up a bit.
Wright - Ankle - 6 weeks
ADJ - Knee - 1 week
Laverde - Back - 1 week
Parish - Back - 4 weeks
Guelfi - Hamstring - 8 weeks
Langford - Hamstring - 8 weeks
Ridley - Concussion - 1 week
Cox - Concussion - 4 weeks
I don’t believe we’ll see Langford until at least round 10. It was a bad hammy.
We never have our best side play together just cant catch a break.
Gee that injury list isn’t that long but it really hurts our tall stocks.

shame day wicks is injured i thought he might be a sneaky chance in next few weeks. only 1 week so should be right soon.
When did he get injured? He’s definitely played in the last couple of practice matches.
