Strauss - Broken Hand


Dee Fan

Recommended Posts

Well if you're going to break a hand, this may just be the time to do it. The bulk of the fitness training can still be completed, therefore preventing a loss of fitness. Plus our players will be having a longer Chrissy break due to starting pre-season training earlier (I think that's the deal the made with the FD), so he won't miss as much as he would had it been sustained in the new year. The main loss will be in the weights room. A shame, but I'm looking at the positives :D .

im curious as to how is broke it!!!

if he is found to be doing something the FD would not like him doing this could be a bad sign for him and the club, but if it was in a training mishap i would be a lot happier to heat it

From my tommy sauce:

Broken wrist, no touching a footy for 6 weeks.

Also rear ended his car today, only minor.

Editorial: Very dedicated to his footy, was nice and fit after surgery etc. But certainly isn't the brightest tool in the shed.

You mean he's out for 4 - 6? :wub:

Stop it. Just stop it RIGHT now.

He can still [censored] himself on the track.

He just can't...well...I'd be repeating myself.

What else can we do but crack jokes eh?

Lets not jump to conclusions on the state of the player or the player's behaviour.

His shoulder injury was a collision injury not a soft tissue or body problem. What was the cause of the broken wrist?

We don"t definately know because the MFC will not tell us re their website. We are guessing or listenening to possible rumours

take it as a definate, unless that was someone else who looked alot like strauss with a bandage on his wrist explaining to me how he went to double fist a ball and broke that ball part on the outside of the wrist ..........and yes that is the medical term :unsure:

I am not questioning that he is injured , but the original post states - broken hand- if that was correct surely he would be in plaster not having his wrist bandaged. Therefore we do not accurately know his injury for sure ! However accept your explanation as a fractured wrist.

i was at training yesrerday and hes not in plaster, the trainer was hitting a tennisball to him, he was moving pretty well, obviously he was only catching the ball with his good hand.

Hitting a punching bag, not a footy.

It's very minor. No cast, will be back in action soon enough.

Bum luck, but eh, he'll be right.

i did have a few so i may have heard that wrong, but i was sure he said ball and then used both hands to indicate a 2 fisted punch.

anyhoo, you're right about it being minor.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
