Garland back in moonboot?

Featured Replies

Posted

As the heading suggests, is Garland back in a moonboot after finding a new stress fracture on his foot?

I heard this, but am not sure whether to believe it or not..

Not trying to scare anyone, merely asking!

 

I'll cry if it's true. If he's got serious foot problems he might never recover from them (did he injure the same bone as Egan? The navicular?).

 

I spoke with a relative of his last Tuesday (who is a client of mine). At that point Garland was going great guns, pretty much 100% and his relative said how much mussel he had put on and how conservative he was being handled and that he was looking to a massive 2010. As of such I think (pray) this is bs.

I am due to catch up with his relative during this week and will ask the question if this dirty rumour has not been proven or disproven by then.

It was a stress fracture in the navicular, but it was much less severe than Egan's injury.

Even if he IS in a moonboot, its probably just precautionary cos of a little flare up.

I'll wait to hear it in the papers...

Pity we could not get an update via our MFC website.

If True hopefully he had the screws removed recently and this is to cater for that.

I saw him a couple of weeks ago at our local shopping centre and he had no limp and no moonboot, hope nothing has changed.

 

ddrake - lets hope that you are right.


Unfortunately it's true.

Garland is back in the moonboot. Doctors don't know what happened to make the injury flare up again.

F&$(!!!!! :(

:angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

Geebus (if true), :angry: can we catch a break with injuries?!

[censored], really? :o

Source?

FACEBOOK :) AND YEAH THE SOURCE IS COL GARLANDS PAGE


September 21

For some reason i cant find his page?

This sux bad if its true.

Its not on there now, if it was before.

And he probably removed it due to facebook stalkers causing a rush of over-reaction on forums.

I'm not worried.


If it is a flare up then we should be worried.

What the F,.sei7hb6yt03584i7y-jnhjtcb

alright.. punching a keyboard aint gonna change anything.

We feel shite, imagine how poor Col feels!

-Good luck CG, keep pluggin away mate..

Disaster!!!!!

Garlands career must now be in the balance. Could well be all over.

Hi Hutchy, good to see you on the boards. Or is it Maher?

Calm down. Even if it has flared up, and he misses this season, his career is healthy. And even if we decided to trade him, he'd find himself at another club VERY quickly.

Next season isn't going to be a flag season. It hurts the club in terms of him missing important development years, and it is a sad setback... but he's nowhere near curtains yet.

 

The MFC website has stated the following:

Dees cautious on Garland injury

Colin Garland

The Melbourne Football Club will take a cautious approach with defender Colin Garland, after scans confirmed bone stress in the talus bone of his right ankle.

Garland will wear a protective boot over the next three weeks to rehabilitate the injury.

Garland spent the majority of the 2009 season successfully recovering from a stress fracture in his right navicular bone. This, however, is an unrelated stress injury which the Club will continue to monitor on an ongoing basis.

General Manager of Football, Chris Connolly, said, “The injury has been detected early, and we are going to take a very cautious approach in dealing with it. We are confident that he will recover to be able to perform a critical mass of pre-season training in preparation for the 2010 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.
