I get tendon - but has it actually ever been quoted as such? They said it’s near tendon but nothing definitive. In that context a retweak makes more sense that it being tendon and the nobody from the club saying as much.

 

I heard them say, tendon with two hamstrings muscle involved. 

If a typical Hammy, there is no way he would have been running at all, after the injury.

I'd say, a bit of hamm but with a tendon strain. I would also suggest that is why he became frustrated as tendon don't feel much at the time, but flair the next day, after some exhaustion.

Hams always give some awareness, tendons not so much.

Both, and diagnosis, prognosis and treatment, means complexity.

    Not making light of a tragic event, but I read this banner on the below news.com article about 10 times and I still can't work it out. Pretty poor quality control. AI journalism is alive and well I suspect.

    Ok so prob rest up and play a game at casey

    Surely not a game at Casey if he is injured.  Either fit to play or not.

    I reckon Fritsch might be back for the last game of the season. Listed as 4-5 so it is possible.

    He’ll be back earlier than expected if his rate of progress remains as it is now, and it likely will.

    They regularly take the boot off to check that he’s tracking as expected, then replace the boot. Last week they took the boot off fully intending to put it back on after examination. All were surprised and delighted when it was decided the boot can stay off. This is ahead of time.

    I think if he can get in for a game pre finals it's a win.

    Clarrie back for Carlton, and TMac with Casey next week

    Along way under the Radar but how massive would it be if Tom MacDonald came back in fine form. Unlikely I know but if he can run he would be putting the Heeby Jeebys into Collingwood Brisbane and Port.

    Been done to death, but gee Oliver’s is strange. Been back full training 2 weeks, on the back of a 4 week training block. His hamstring must be able to cut through steel by now it is so well conditioned.

    On the injury front, the blues are pretty hard hit.

    In terms of our game against them, best 22 blues plsyers who are def out are Cerra, McKay and Kennedy.

    And Walsh is listed as one to two weeks, so in doubt.

    Big outs - particularly if Walsh doesn't get up as their midfield is their key strength and their game is based around winning stoppages.

    No Cerra and Walsh, and hopefully clarry coming back in, gives us a big edge in the middle.

    Cardinal rule in football is take things one week at a time. We’re playing North Melbourne this week - let’s concentrate on that game. 😀

    The Kangaroos expect Goater to be cleared to play in Sunday's clash with the Demons, despite being subbed off last week.

    Bonar, Hall and Perez could all return at some level, but will also need to undergo fitness tests.

    The club is still awaiting more information before clearing Coleman-Jones after a second concussion of the season.

    Shiels and Wardlaw are still at least a week away.

    Charlie Lazzaro (back) and Tom Powell (knee) made their comebacks through the VFL last weekend.

    I am a great admirer of Tmac, he has been a terrific contributor and a premiership player ..... but ..... sadly, I doubt he'll play another senior game.

    I guess I shouldn't say the hawks are in good shape injury wise and Rampe and McInerney are doubtful for round 24

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.

    • PREVIEW: Sydney

      The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
