2024 Injury List

[whatwhat say what 23,072]

if he can do what he did in the last 45 mins of a game like that with one hand, imagine how good he'll be when he has two working mitts?

[Timothy Reddan-A'Blew 5,450]

Was wearing special protection, I noted?

[The heart beats true 18,175]

I thought he looked hampered in the first half, and then played one of the best last quarters you’ll ever see from an inside mid.

I’ll back him in, even with one hand.

[DubDee 26,191]

wonder what he had for breakfast Ch 7?

Makes sense... precautionary

Let’s see how they tag him if he’s in the stands

I’m not sure what this means?

It was really obvious at times before and after the game last night how much he was favouring the hand. Didn’t shake right hand after game, avoided using the hand in warm ups. Hopefully he gets through Thursday ok. 

[Ollie fan 3,495]

I would rest him this week if there is any real problem - and it seems that there is. The Adelaide mids are not threatening. He is too valuable to risk.

I would say that in order to get the tick of approval to wear the hand guard, he would need scans to show the AFL he needs it. And of course they would need to check that playing with the injury is not going to cause further or permanent damage, and it’s just about pain management. 
 

We absolutely need him against Brisbane, so I would make that game a priority and give him a rest against Adelaide if it’s a case of one or the other.

I propose the collection to be auctioned off at the Best and Fairest. Quite an artistic piece, really. Turn them into a photobook; each one with match details and a highlight photo on the opposite page of the magic hands at play.

Can they get a premiership cup into one of those scanners?

[SPC 3,571]

With a short break, I’d consider giving him a week off and prepare him for Brisbane. We have good depth, Sparrow and Salem could cover his midfield time. Kossie also an option with AMW to come in for his debut.

Public service announcement.

A segment on Tom Hawkins follows the Clayton Oliver piece. Viewer discretion is advised.

If it’s not getting worse then he’s still better than whoever would come in to replace.

Yes i agree with this... bring Sparrow & Kozzy's CBAs up.  Maybe bring in Moniz to take some of the Kozzy forward minutes and to give him a taste at the top level.

[Fromgotowoewodin 1,606]

Can’t be too bad if he was in 80% of centre bounces, but I’d still prefer they give him a week off against the crows for the sake of getting it right.

Yep  rest .... great move😍

[Wrecker46 3,052]

I wrote in the post match thread he's my favourite demon ever but i wanted him subbed off because he was only clearly playing with one hand until he just did what he does in the last quater.

He wasn't right.

I reckon if we subbed olhim off we would have lost.

I hope he's ok.

Maybe rest him against the Crows

 

[BDA 22,955]

He was not quite right against Port but still dominated in the last quarter. Not sure we would have won without him. 

Can't take the Crows lightly. When do we ever have an easy game against them at AO? They'll be getting the blowtorch treatment all this week so will come out fighting. It's going to be a tough game.

Clarry has to and will play.
