Jesse Hogan - back injury

[rpfc 28,964]

"It was only 2 days after his press conference at Luna Park. I wasn't rude or silly enough to directly ask him if he's going to stay, but I can contribute that he and the players are excited about the coming year"

I asked directly, and what your gut is telling you is correct, as I put before, if he sees the light at the end of the tunnel and it's not the train, he will sign

I get a lot of players talking to me because I am direct

You're direct then, are you?

[Satyriconhome 10,880]

You're direct then, are you?

You can tell by my posts not a fan or rumour, innuendo, bulldust...if you want an answer.... ask....of course everybody can be lied to, just hope I can pick it up

Ony time I am not is on here when I feel like a bit of entertainment

The players know when they speak to me, I am actually interested in what they have to say but if they ask an opinion they get a straight answer, not interested in fawing on them

...as an aside my daughter says I don't do tact or empathy well though...probably part of being direct

I have a degenerate knee also.

I have to manage a body that is nearly completely degenerate for the rest of my life.

How does the mind stack up?

Supporting MFC for any length of time generally brings on a level of insanity in all of us.

I am sure one of them is that maggot Damian Barrett to see if his wild guess on Jesses health was right

I wonder if he has seen Dom Tyson play yet?

Probably not

Hes not a fan of the sport he only cares about gossip and innuendo of the players lives

Weird guy to say the least

Not weird

Just lazy

If that is true, he is a pathetic little man. Anyone who gets their kicks out of stirring up die-hard fans of a bottom club is a sad troll.

I hope he reads that and reflects on his character.

sue we already know he is a pathetic little man

we are just debating whether he is a "really really pathetic little man" or a "really really really pathetic little man"

[The Song Formerly Known As 6,479]

In the article itself it says the club have confirmed it. MFC have said they will announce about it this arvo.

The denial here is incredible.

denial is hope of the stupid.

[Crompton's the man 660]

When you think about it if the results are sealed who would see them 1; person doing the scan 2;doctor reviewing scan 3;club doctor;4;coach. 5; Physio can't see where Barrett fits in

jim? This is important enough for a PM to know:)

[Ted Lasso 19,564]

Still no confirmation from the club on the extent of the injury?

[wmth 69]

At least 2-3.....

[drdrake 3,203]

It will be 8-10 weeks

http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2014-03-07/hogan-sidelined-with-back-injury

I'm reading that as maybe 3 weeks, more likey 5-6 which means at worst round 4.

[old dee 24,028]

It will be 8-10 weeks

I agree Dr.

Just read the release.

That is football speak for two months if I ever heard it.

[olisik 4,060]

Lets hope this injury isn't like the back injury which kept Evans or Taggart out for a year.

[Mr Steve 3,820]

Tough luck for the young kid.

[DemonOX 8,837]

So based on the article the club has no idea how long it will take for hogan to recover.

Could be 2-3wks or longer. Nice each way bet there!!

Next they will put him on the LTI list.

U would think that one out of the three forwards could bloody start the season.

We better get used to a forward line of Howe, Pedo and Fitzy.

Melb fc state "stress reaction".

And it depends on his response to treatment.

Estimated 2-3 weeks

I'd say at least 4 weeks off the track and out of the gym, lots of time in the pool. After that it would probably take 3 or 4 weeks for him to be fit to play.

It's 2 week until round 1. If we can have him back safely and healthy by round 6 it will be a great result.
