Training 7th Feb 2022

[Ants]

Not great news. Seems a few injuries occurred today.

@All-Star_Bomber_18

Unfortunate news, its seems langford has hurt his shoulder at training in a hip and shoulder drill with McGrath.

He was down for a little while holding it then walked off into the hanger. Same shoulder he has strapped.

@Houli_Dooley

Well last week the club reported in that article with Josh Mahoney that Jones was due to resume full training at the end of the week.

Not sure if he was referring to last week or this week but looking at Jones today he looks a fair way off it and there appears to be some concern still.

He was doing some jogging around cones in straight line and change of direction but he stopped and pointed to his foot/ankle and lay down on the grass and had one of our high performance guys/physios look at it or work on it for a good 5 minutes. Jones then went inside after that.

Just hope he hasn’t had a setback. He’s too important for us.

@6_monfries_and_coke

He walked past me on the the boundary as he was heading into the rooms and there was a guy near me who asked him when is he going to be back with the group and he said all things well if not Thursday then definitely next week

[CJohns]

Hearing Langers will be ok

[All-Star_Bomber_18]

Good news, hopfully it was just a stinger.

[6_monfries_and_coke]

Is it true that stringer is in iso ?

[6_monfries_and_coke]

The only 2 missing this morning that I saw were Stringer and Stewart. While Jones,Reid and hurley were the only ones in the modified group

[All-Star_Bomber_18]

Stringer was walking laps towards the end of training. Just having a few sessions off.

Zerk and Eyre seem to be in iso as they have missed a week.

[Bomber.drum]

Eyre was out on the oval at the end of training just doing light running drills

[CJohns]

Eyre coming back from isolation today

[6_monfries_and_coke]

Oh ok. That must of been after I left around 10.30

@CJohns

Eyre coming back from isolation today

The ones in iso, is that because they have covid or do they have to go into iso for other reasons as well like being a close contact? *I don’t know the latest Vic rules on any of this

[samwoods]

To be fair, I’m not sure anyone does.

Need swift confirmation I have wasted all panic dollars please

All of the panic

All of the dollars

Gone

[Jake_Brady_10]

Cant be either or. May be q close contact, may have had it

[CJohns]

Can be both… close contact at home or home it yourself.

[Saucy]

When do we get a hot & sweaty report??

@All-Star_Bomber_18

its seems langford has hurt his shoulder at training in a hip and shoulder drill with McGrath.

Raises further questions about what exactly constitutes a “big bodied midfielder”.

[wimmera1]

Don’t have to be big to damage a shoulder with a bump. More about whether you’re expecting it, in my experience.
Edit: I mean…if it was a drill then that shouldn’t be a factor either…

[CJohns]

Sorry i wasn’t there today. Need some others😀

[Captain_Jack]

Phew. Bullet officially dodged.

[WindsockBoy]

So you’re saying people shouldn’t obsess over BBMs - we want Stealth Midfielders instead?

PS on a serious note I entirely agree. Some of the hardest hitting mids I’ve seen are more in the Long mould, than the Cripps/Bontompelli types.

Just attempting to incite the BBM brigade. Again.
