Did anyone else see the topic and thought his hammy had blown up again?

Anyway, Yze sounded really confident on radio that he's on the right path and will playing games within 2-3 weeks.

(I've learnt not to hang off every word Goodwin says in his interviews)

If he can get the last 3 games in before finals, then that would be a good result. Even better if we can knock off Richmond without him.

Don't you mean "when" ?

He has been out for a long time does he come back via Casey or straight in? Medical sub might be good. 

Clarence Oliver does not "do Casey" 😁

I don’t think the FD are playing games. I presume the hospitalisation due to infection significantly impacted his conditioning and delayed his return.

frustrating for sure but the silver lining is he’ll be raring to go and cherry ripe for finals

I reckon Goodwin is giving us nothing after he told us 10 times Clarry will play next week, when Clarry in fact did not play the following week. 
 

Yze would be much more in the know anyway since he’s Clarry’s direct line coach, so would have conversations with him on the daily.
He is probably sage cleansing and praying daily for the return of his star player! 😂

Yep i think more so on the impact on Clarry and putting indirect/unnecessary pressure on him to be fit and healthy. I think he'll come back and play against Norf and get some match fitness before he is then really tested against the Blues the week after. I found what Yze said in relation to him joining the team for full training an interesting statement as the track watchers have already mentioned that he has been doing that for quite a few weeks. Was that perhaps an indication that he has recovered and now its all about building match fitness?

On the socials today there is a video of the full group doing run throughs and Clarry is in there. 

I hope they were going at more than 90% speed.

He won't have played for over 2 months by the time he gets back, could be closer to 3. He is not Superman.

Nothing released officially by the club on their website or socials but this was on the AFL Website.

Medical room: The full AFL injury list, R20

melbourne.jpg?width=500
PLAYER INJURY ESTIMATED RETURN
 Bayley Fritsch  Foot  4-5 weeks
 Tom McDonald  Ankle  1-3 weeks
 Clayton Oliver  Hamstring  2-3 weeks
 Harrison Petty  Ribs  Test
 Daniel Turner  Wrist  4-5 weeks
 Kye Turner  Groin  TBC
Updated: July 25, 2023

Early prognosis

Petty should be fit to face the Tigers after the club erred on the side of caution for the Adelaide clash. Oliver is still at least a fortnight away as he builds his ability to hit top speed, while McDonald continues to train with the main group as he closes on a playing return. – Michael Rogers

He’s way better than Superman. How many All Australian teams and coaches awards has Superman won? None. 
He is a hack.

Still shown as 2-3

Is that weeks  or months ??

If this is just a hamstring  I'm the archangel Gabriel.

Best recovery Clarry !!

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
