Wondering if our main training session is today as we usually have it 3 days before a match with a light run the day before the game.

Anyone know if training is on today?

Rightio. 

Cripps has been playing with a sore back which every club has known about since round 1. Haven't seen anyone target his back. 

Jack Viney's foot? 

Not sure your view adds up. 

It’s as old as the hills, targeting someone’s Achilles heel, if you will. No matter the body part, dirty opposition players will find a way.

Isn't it usually 2 days prior? Meaning that it will be on tomorrow?

We don’t know it’s a groin. We actually don’t know anything.

We also don’t know what Oliver is likely carrying, what Gawn is clearly carrying, how Goodwin’s mental health is, and where Burgo is with his decision for next year.

You should write the club a strongly worded letter requesting a status update, and be sure to let us know what you learn.

Thats rarely a one game off scenario.  if its a proper groin he may be out a while.

I could be wrong dd but I always thought it was 3 days prior. Last weeks main session was on the Wednesday. 

From training yesterday.

Dare I say that the club isn’t keeping the supporters in the dark.

Instead they aren’t letting every opposition club know what’s wrong with one of our most important players, and therefore how to target him.

And target him, they will!

The club love keeping their supporters in the dark regarding injuries. 

Consider it operational security. Why divulge information the oppo can plan around? It's not hard to understand, surely. 

Don't think he was injured, just ran out of peroxide and refused to go on deck without his highlights.

I demand to see all his personal medical records!

 

 

 

Not trying to be funny, asking a serious medical question: what actually goes wrong with a groin? And how does it get fixed?

Seriously, what do you care?

There may be 100 reasons why they don't want others to know about a players injury.

Let them do their job.

Exactly. We will find out in due course whether or not he's available and if not, how long he's out for. I don't see why it's pressingly urgent for the entire membership to know the gory details of his injury, on a Tuesday afternoon.

I usually just give it a bit of a rub and it's fine after that

Targeting a groin would be a new level of low.

Viney still another 3 weeks away. I'd say his toe/foot is stuffed.

Hooray! One of our best and most important players this year. Big addition to the team for our biggest game yet.

Viney still 2-3 weeks. I think the person who suggested he's had a setback is correct.

Bad news if true. Our midfield has dropped off big time since he went down injured. Over the past month statistically we’ve gone from a clear top 2 team to a middling team grinding out wins (and a loss) against weak opposition.

Viney adds defensive pressure, ball winning ability, and a vocal leader to organize around the ground. His absence is being felt more than it’s being spoken about.
