Tough for them to name an accurate ETA for the type of injury he's got, the fact is come down 4 weeks is positive and almost surprising, I expected to see him hit with the dreaded TBC

Stress reactions are pretty common, clubs have a good guide on how long they take. The big issue is he’s done the easy part of the rehab - sitting around doing non or low weight bearing stuff. The next month as he builds back up to full loads is the time where things could be really straightforward or face set backs.

Sounds pretty tough to get an ETA on

Cal Twomey says Culley’s out for 4-6 with bone stress in his foot (can’t embed the Tweet).

Is this new or has the club already announced this and I missed it?

Please not 4-6….

Haven’t seen anything from the club.
It was mentioned he was in a moonboot in a training thread from last week. Was suggested the moonboot was a precaution.

[hardtack 11,106]

Given that Spargo played in Saturday’s match simulation, and assuming he pulled up ok (does anyone know?), why would he still be listed as TBC on that injury list?  Surely if he’s now in full training, they must have some idea of a time frame.

Poor bloke has been given the Nick Smith treatment.

I don't trust the AFL list for accuracy personally... waiting for the Selwyn update

[FarNorthernD 5,863]

While there is ‘only’ 3 players on the list who would be considered top 23 players - Pickett, McVee and Tholstrup - we have roughly a quarter of our list (10) who are unavailable for Rnd 1. That’s not ideal. 

[Ghostwriter 5,457]

Poor Jai. Turns out it wasn’t a minor foot thing after all 🙁

It’s new. Last week he said he thought it was a minor issue. He also said they’d only just put him in the moonboot that morning but it was only precautionary. He’d be gutted 🙁

I'd have Spargo in my 23 if he's fit...

You can't make that stuff up.

Well, you kind of can when it comes to the MFC.

I would suggest orthotic insoles for Jai Culley in his football boots.

I wore them in my football boots as another level of protection against having any bone stress in my feet.

However, I am sure Selwyn Griffith and the Demons medical team know alot more than I do.

I would have thought this would have been standard for every afl player
