Team VS Collingwood

Demon_Tingles is indeed correct. Although I'm not sure about him being out for the season.. I was told to keep it as quiet as possible as well and I was told that we are probably looking at 12ish weeks..

We should be glad the docs found it now, otherwise it would've been Matthew Eganesq and that would be a disaster.

.......... kept very quiet so far :huh:

 

I assumed this was what a forum was for the sharing of information and opinions, totally agree with both of our newsbreakers keeping it quiet but keeping us informed.

And if the 12 wks is true, we only have five rookies to pick from now, the coaching staff need to decide to not promote and leave the time for when Jamar is back so they can continue to use it for Spencer or give another kid a go, and which one, Valenti is another in and under player, we have three of them in McLean Moloney and McDonald in the team at present do we need another one promoted to sit at Casey anyway, Zomer, perhaps he needs the big stage, and the other three are brand new with Hughes on the injury list himself and possibly Healy, that leaves McKenzie.so a 50/50 choice

Once this is decided and AFL permission granted then it will be announced, besides it should start to hit the papers as Garland is not spotted training or rehab.

Why must we criticise other posters......is it for the sake of criticising....

Where was the criticism?

And where is the value in not keeping members/supporters informed about injury decisions?


Why bring it up if you don't want to reveal that you know it?

What is this?..it is keeping us informed, besides that if somebody brings up an injury story that is not true and factual they are banned.....so it is a no win situation..what we should say to both posters is thanks for the information and let us know if you hear anymore..........there are too many posters on here lately who will jump down your throat if you do not toe 'their' line.....everybody is entitled to their opinion......

I think and i emphasise think that it is a stress fracture. He couldnt say as it was wednesday night and the afl hadnt announced it. Surely you understand that because if I was to talk to someone and a reporter or journo heard me the club would not be happy.

I believe if my memory serves me correctly that DT is in a very good position to know what is going on with Colin Garland. Unfortunately I think the information will be confirmed soon.

 

i dont get it...he pulled up soar and the doctors found something that needs to be treated, (unlike egan)

or he just pulled up very soar and will be out for twelve months???

why is it "lucky the doctors found it now?"

If it is a stress fracture obviously you haven't had one, you can actually live with the discomfort, but being a footballer Col puts a lot of strain on it, and did not hesitate to let the medicos know, if it goes undetected and does not heal correctly this can cause even more problems as you continually fracture it and it never gets right.......I have done both a stress fracture in the foot and a broken ankle......the ankle was a lot easire to fix and rehabilitate......


Thanks to those who aren't stupid and believed me. As if I would make something up about a mate people need to calm down I didn't want him to be injured he is a mate I can only tell you what I have been told. No it is not a season ending injury so if you know something post it if you dont know dont say anything because it is just making us who do know look stupid.

from what i understand, it felt a bit tight/sore after the game on Sunday.. He informed club docs and they had precautionary scans on it.. Which found the stress fracture..

at the moment he wouldn't be in a great deal of discomfort but it has the potential to turn bad very quick.

With Matt Egan he kept playing on it and never got it attended to, which caused the injury to worsen to the point in which it is now. Almost inoperable, and despite all his confidence he will still be very lucky to be able to play on it in the forseeable future.

Col is very lucky they found it early

A stress fracture leave a person with a dull throbbing that doesn't hurt until after someone has finished playing on it. They take a long time to heal and it has to be remembered that the fracture is a weak spot on the bone that, depending on the bone, can easily turn into a messy fracture that is extremely difficult to mend.

Ok, ok.... you people have now got me worried enough to trade him out of my Super Coach squad.

trust me trade him he said he will be out for a while unfortunately it is an LTI


stress fracture of the bone that has ousted Egan thats why.....

If thats the case that COULD BE, if not handled very conservatively, career threatening.

Lets hope that they take it Cautiously with young Garland, & make sure he's fully recovered before he sets FOOT back on the training track.

Good Luck - Colin Garland.

#U&$ %^*T %^ ^&*^ (!^*$

WHY GARLAND :(

We really can't catch a break right now.

Garland was set for a great year, and our backline was finally starting to take shape. In fact, our backline seems cursed. Either we have hopeless defenders, or we find good ones and they're always out injured (Rivers, Whelan, now Grimes and Garland).

I guess the silver lining in all this is we'll get to promote another rookie and they might become a revelation (ala Aussie, Spence etc...)... and we're now even more likely to get those top 2 draft picks *ducks for cover* ;)

The defence will be fine, Bennell will be even better this week, a bit small but the opposition never has all giants, there will always be a place, and Martin is being groomed as a utility ready to slot back into defence if needed and we have Wheatley on the way back, a good solid player, nothing flash, but I like some defenders like that......Rivers and Grimes when he is back will provide the drive out of defence whilst the rest hold it steady......I was always optimistic that the first four or five games we would at least match the opposition for most of the game and maybe sneak a win, but after that the improvement will be dramatic and we could actually win a few games really well.....as the preseason work really kicks in...my opinion hasn't changed...we can cover the injuries now, can never see us having less than 29 players each week to pick from

If this is not true then it's a disgrace.

If it is true, then extremely unfortunate.

Silver lining (as long as Col Completely recovers): We know Col can play at the highest level. He is our most promising star. We still have 4 key defenders, and this gives the chance for Martin and Frawley to really prove themselves because unlike Col, these 2 stilll need alot of work on their game.

Gives opportunities to others who we are unsure are up to standard.... Col will come back and continue to be a star no doubt, perhaps this could help improvement of Frawley and Martin


At least we know what he's made of, we now get to see what Martin has and also one of the other rookies.

Very sad though, wish him all the best

Agree.

There is nothing wrong with posters putting up accurate information on this site. However they need to be careful that the information is provided in accordance with the Code of Conduct.

However there are some posters who have a track record of pushing "facts" which are no more than their opinion. Its a case of being used to separating the wheat from the chaff. There is alot of chaff on here.

But if a poster deliberately pedals information that is not true and is designed in someway to mislead users on this site, they can expect to be banned. There have been a couple of examples of this arise in 2009.

 

This year is already starting to have some deja vu about it. Injuries crippling us from the start.

Why oh why were we claiming that we were having a good run with injuries in the off season?!?!

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
