Tom Fullarton (hamstring) — continues to work through his recovery. Luker Kentfield (pneumonia) — hospitalised in Perth over Christmas break and slowly recovering there. Expected back at the club soon. Judd McVee (foot) (hamstring) — TBC Jake Melksham (hamstring) — will miss the next block of pre-season training. Christian Petracca (ribs) — expected to restart full training at the club soon. Christian Salem (ill) — TBC Charlie Spargo (Achilles) — making slow progress in his recovery. Koltyn Tholstrup (bone stress) — expected to be sidelined for the next 8 to 10 weeks. Jack Viney (rib cartilage) — TBC Caleb Windsor (skin infection on his foot) —1 week @chelly thanks And it’s February!!! With no games actually played.

whatwhat say what 23,854 Posted February 12 Posted February 12 i think, at this stage, it's something more like only fullarton, kentfield, mcvee, and tholstrup with injuries / illnesses likely to rule them out of the first part of the pre-season / season 2 Quote

Does a session in seawater help avoid this sort of infection. Used to be a regular report of players shivering in the water as it helped muscle recovery or something (Help its obvious Im out of my pay grade here). Would a training base closer to the sea facilitate this. I was advised that Spas are the ideal site for spreading infections. (Hoping for someone with idea of reality) 2 Quote

I’ve broken it into 3 categories given the hammy didn’t look like a micky mouse one. GOOD NEWS - 4 week and will miss just round 1. MEH/ MODERATE NEWS - 8-10 weeks and will be back about round 6 BAD NEWS - tore the string off the born. Surgery and won’t be seen until after the bye. 3 Quote

Anyone else like me wonder why other clubs get the results of player scans and make them public a lot quicker than MFC (or is this just a case of MFCSS)? 1 Quote

Scans were yesterday afternoon. I suspect the radiologist would have only had a chance to look at it today. They will then have to speak to the Specialist doctor around prognosis and recovery time. I doubt we will hear anything until tomorrow. 2 Quote

It was round 2 2023 on a Friday night and the good news that it wasn't serious came through on Sunday afternoon. I only remember because the news came through during the last qtr of the Casey game and everyone in the crowd was talking about it. 2 1 Quote

Roost it far 10,134 Posted February 13 Posted February 13 McVee gets 6-8 weeks. On the website that truly sucks 2 3 Quote
adonski 13,265 Posted February 13 Posted February 13 Might have Judd and Kozzie enter the side at the same time 2 Quote
whatwhat say what 23,854 Posted February 13 Posted February 13 Well that’s a shame, for him and the club 2 Quote
Roost it far 10,134 Posted February 13 Posted February 13 With Salem and Windsor fit we should be ok. What we don’t need is any more best 22 going down. I hate injuries. 5 Quote
Bring-Back-Powell 15,545 Posted February 13 Posted February 13 6-8 weeks is smack back in the middle of the of the good to bad news spectrum. He’ll probably back in the side around the round 6 game against Freo. AMW seems the logical replacement while Howes and Hore might be asked to play on smaller defenders if either of those guys has a good practice match series. Please no more injuries given Kozzie’s also out for a while. 2 Quote
Demon Jack 7,194 Posted February 13 Posted February 13 Juddy hasn't missed since he debuted and has had a pretty good track record with injuries so this really sucks. Really hope this means that AMW gets another go in the senior side. I thought he showed a lot of promise late last year. 4 Quote
