Will they release the injury update tomorrow or next week?

I really hope Duursma has avoided injury very important player. The team suffers with out his gut running up and back to defend.

Imagine if all those $$$ we spent fixing up contract payouts went into building cutting edge rehab facilities.

Getting Reid,Ridley,Redman back isn’t trying to aim for 11th the backline has been farking horrendous we need those players back

Sounds like Ridley, Reid and El Hawli are available. Redman and Langford maybe slightly behind.

Happy if they just bring in Ridley and Reid of those guys at this stage.

I’m sure we can find replacements

If we rush all five in, what’s the over/under on the amount of playera that reinjure themselves.

I’d definitely keep Reid back to make until he’s 110%

No Duursma on the injury list force once we had injury luck go our way.

They generally reinjure themselves before we rush them back in.

Well I guess Reid is 100% never playing another game then.

If Reid is fit and firing I’d bring him back straight away. His risk of re-injury or new injury won’t change much between AFL and VFL so he comes straight back into AFL side for mine.

Nah, he can go 3/4 pace in the VFL and you can restrict his playing time so he gets a good hitout without having his hamstrings fully fatigued.

Whilst I agree this can be done individually, we will likely have SEH, Langford, Redman, Reid and Ridley all available. They can’t all be managed in the same game.
I think one of them will play in seniors, two in VFL and the other two will be asked to do a heavy training load instead of playing a game.

Old mate Barham in his mid season letter saying injuries are just bad luck, particularly because they are tall.

Insights abound in the world of Dave.

I for one, don’t blame him for wanting to leave.

I see it as a separate issue.

Players have left without being first class ■■■■ ■■■■■ about it.

Edit: Also, I thought you were replying to my previous Barham post and got excited.
