Ricky Petterd's shoulder

Featured Replies

Posted

I was just thinking today, is it two seasons in a row now that Ricky Petterd has been out (for the most part) because of

his shoulder? I hope this doesnt become a recurring thing for a exciting player!

Can't wait to see more of him next season!

Also does anyone know if he's been training lately or if he's gonna be hindered at all in the pre season?

 

I spoke to him at one of the later games, might've even been the Sydney game, whatever game it was Greeny was on fire and I told Ricky he won't be able to get a game if Green keeps it up... Anyway, he said he was a couple of weeks away from full training back then, so he should have a big preseason.

 

I will make sure i have Lots of Gaffer Tape from work on me next year, dodgy shoulder or not we gotta keep ricky out there kicking goals!!! B)

I was surprised they called it a season after round 6 with a shoulder injury. If we were in finals calcualtions, they may have rushed him back.


I'm still grumpy that we left him on when it already looked dodgy and the match was shot, but anyway.

If you read his twitter he has been doing the weights for a few weeks now, so shoulder must be ok....he keeps saying he is trying to get 'big'.....must get a bit of ribbing from team mates, know Chip is one of his best, so standing next to him must make him feel small.....think he wants a run in China

I'm still grumpy that we left him on when it already looked dodgy and the match was shot, but anyway.

Yep, that was a bad decision.

I think that'd be typical Ricky too, though.

He's a tough bastard.

 

Been seen running the tan lately..up and going- may even play in China.

He won't need to get big. He's got the mo now as well, he can do anything

Jeez tough is an understatement! Ever since his debut my heart skips a beat at every contest because he is so bloody courageous!

Can't wait to see him out there next year, if anyone deserves a full successful years it's him!

OMG two mo's in the forward line + Jurrah MFC will be unstoppable :)

MFC = Jacks & mo's.

I agree. It was obvious he was in trouble with his shoulder but they just kept sending/letting him back out.

Jurrah + Petterd + Watts + Wonna= Bums on seats next year.

I am getting one, i better sit down!! B)

Yep, that was a bad decision.

Mmm, it may be true - but if it was me making the call I'd have told him to sit down and rest up. I said as much when I was watching the coverage at the time.

I think they were aiming @ Next Year all along.

A big uninterrupted preseason before the season proper. We need to get away well from the get go.

    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

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    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.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
