September 7, 20223 yr And reported in yesterday's The Age...Aaron vandenBerg is injured again. He was apparently playing for Old Xavs and suffered what The Age called "a serious arm injury". Poor bloke still can't take a trick. Not sure if it's paywalled, but it's buried a fair way down this story.
September 13, 20223 yr I wonder what our injury list would have looked like immediately after Friday night’s game?
September 13, 20223 yr My brother was over at Maxy's place on monday. He mentioned how banged up the boys were come the Friday night. Obviously Trac's leg, Fritta's knee was no good & Max's groins were cooked. He said he felt OK 1st Qtr, but as the game went on, they progressively got worse & worse (clearly noticeable by his performance thereafter). He also said they really needed to win the QF to get the week off.

Loading and rest appear to be the mantra for the best outcomes. We will be better prepared for a normal season of injuries in 2023 unlike 2021 when we were more than lucky.
September 16, 20223 yr Tmac has re-injured his foot. Wrap him in cotton wool and let’s hope he can still get a full pre-season in.

September 16, 20223 yr A close friend was at a 40th last Saturday which TMac attended. His foot got trodden on by a Brisbane player and he told her it was very sore Saturday night and was going for scans early in the week.. It was 6 month injury which they managed to get him back in 3 unfortunate that he got trodden on. Typical of our luck this year

Geelong rested players all year and are now cherry ripe to challenge for a flag. We hurried injured players back and played them underdone instead of giving them time to heal. When you have players like Dunstan and Chandler absolutely demolishing the VFL, surely you can give them a game at AFL level to fill in for underdone players that need to be fit come finals time. The club stuffed it this year. Shame to hear TMac has re-injured his foot. That's probably also the result of rushing him back in 3 months when it is usually a 6 month recovery time for that type of injury. Hopefully he will still be able to get some preseason in and be ready for next season.
