I presume he's on an IV to ensure that any infection is nuked well in time for the game.

They couldn’t miss that night, they were 7 straight at one stage.

Also, they kicked 6 straight against us on QB in the last. Add that to the 7.0 in the R21 game and it’s 13.0 in two and half quarters. 

This is another reason we've tried to model our game on theirs and early in the season, our accuracy was very much like theirs in key games last year.

But much of this is about where their players kick goals from. Often very central positions.

Got to be unlikely to play now must be quite sever to need an IV, don’t understand how a fit young guy can’t fight off a simple infection from a blister naturally.

I think it is because hard training puts a fair bit of stress on the body and that stress can effect the immune response.

the IV is just to deliver the antibiotics the most efficient way possible.  Sounds worse than it is.  Could still easily play in 5 days

I recall a few years ago one of our players talking about how they all constantly manage blisters on their feet. Some of the mids have numerous blisters most of the season, such is the amount of running they do.

I would suggest Clarry gets enough of the ball to have blisters covering his hands!

It’s just some antibiotics. Everyone calm down.

Who amongst us hasn’t woken up on a Monday morning in need of a jab, and then bounced back to be out again on the Friday night?

Channel flicked onto Footy Classified just in time to hear Maguire make comment about Oliver.

He could hardly contain his joy about Oliver being in hospital with an IV in his arm. Also scoffed about him returning after only having two weeks of for a hamstring injury.

I really hope and want the Dees to win next Monday even more now, with Oliver BOG.

Yep and an overnight stay and iV delivered antibiotics should clear it up quickly. 

The wound will also get special treatment further improving chances.

Hopefully his rehab had finished and no more loading was required.

I reckon it'd be even better if we gave Clarry another week off and beat them anyway.

    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.
