Exactly. No mention of injury on MFC website.

Why would they tell us they just let us hear off that ass wipe with a smirk on his face, why bother telling the paid up members.

At this rate Georgiou will play more career games for the MFC then Hogan Clark and Dawes combined.

I just love that this came from Barrett. Yet again our club is too spineless to properly report injuries

I dont really like this...but youre probably right :(

Not a chance he's returns in a month either. This will be a much longer recovery than that.

Yeah it makes you wonder if much has changed personally I would be surprised if it has and letting supporters find that out by a [censored] that we all despise is really disappointing but should be expected.

Where's Satyriconhome to put some context and truth around this?

What if there's nothing to report?

Would you prefer they announce today that he is having scans and may have back stress fractures, only to say tomorrow that they jumped the gun and it is only bruising..?

(Besides the obvious result being different).

Some people just don't think.

Settle down people this is players body we are talking about. He has to get a scan and in to see a specialist before a proper prognosis is made. Even then some times you can't make any comment until a repeat appointment or scan once inflammation has settled.

The media can just report whatever they like about 'some kind of stress fracture' and 'some swelling'. The club has to think of the player not just fans. Also they can't create mass hysteria every time a player has some soreness.

Geelong have been a completely closed shop under Neil Balme and it hasn't stopped them winning games.

Hope your right what time did training finish today would they even know the results yet?

So Saty chatted to Hogan after training and he was actually getting a massage from Mark Neeld and Chris Connolly because they are great blokes when Cam Schwab walked in and tripped over Liam Jurrah who was just siting down after doing some training for his comeback to AFL. Schwab trying to get his balance dropped the projector he was carrying to film whiteboard wednesday that landed on Hogan's back and caused him some pain. Dr Bates is going to arrange for Steve Dank to supply some AOD cream and he should be right for round 1. It's all in the past and no one is to blame so we should move on.

I don't know how AFL clubs work and presume they get a lot of priority access and things but it's not unreasonable to think:

- Hogan pulls up not too sore after the game

- Gets a bit sore Monday. Doc and Physio think it's just a knock in the back and will settle.

- Things aren't better on Thursday so they send him in for a scan but still name him not expecting much. Scan results get back later in the day (and leaked to Barrett).

- Specialist appointment booked in either late Thursday or Friday and only then can the club really comment with any surety.

I'd rather work out how it's leaked to Barrett. Could be as simple as Hogan telling a friend who spreads it to media or could be someone in the clubs a bit leaky.

You have no idea whether he is really injured. If he is really injured, you have no idea of the severity of the injury. MFCSS!!

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
