SEN: Demon out for season



Recommended Posts


Anyone thinking he might call it quits?

I know he has another year left on his contract, but if he's out for the rest of the season, he might think twice about continuing.

Would be terribly sad for someone who nearly broke the consecutive-matches record to be forced out of the game with injury.

Sad and ironic.

For anyone who is interested:

A hernia is a protrusion of a tissue, structure, or part of an organ through the muscular tissue or the membrane by which it is normally contained.

A hernia may be likened to a failure in the sidewall of a tire. The tire's inner tube behaves like the organ and the sidewall like the body cavity wall providing the restraint. A weakness in the sidewall allows a bulge to develop, which can become a split, allowing the inner tube to protrude, and leading to the eventual failure of the tire.

*ouch*

it seems a bit funny a bloke playing 240 odd games in a row and then missing a season with a hernia. It is yze though

same happened to crouch from swans played 196 games and now is in and out of the team

Ben Holland (nose) - test

Travis Johnstone (Achilles) - test

Brent Moloney (groin) - test

David Neitz (finger) - test

Jared Rivers (groin/back) - 1 week

Adem Yze (groin) - 1-2 weeks

Daniel Hughes (groin) - 3-4 weeks

Clint Bartram (knee) - indefinite

has he had the hernia all year or is this a recent development? because he has been listed as groin, you would think there is considerable difference in the pain of a groin strain and a hernia...if this is the case, you would think it strange that a previously injury free career has had a number of injuries all at once...

A year to run on his contract, he'll be back next year. where else is he going to make $400 grand in a year. He deserves another year on the list after all those years of service, he just has to earn a game.

Wouldn't mind betting he's gone. One less downhill skier on the list.

If its Neitz then il cry

hope it is get him rested and anyone else that is not well for this year is over.

lets start making in roads for next year.

get newton in and buckly get the young ones in now so we have more depth next year.

lets learn from this year that we cant carry anyone for it cost us

name or no name if you go out for any reason for now on you have to spend 2 weeks at sandy .

maybe the players might fight a bit harder.

neitz,tj, will come stright back in but have they done much to get them back in this year.

with neitz out for a while maybe some leaders may start to show their hands and melbourne might learn how to win with out him.

Does this new development allow a player to replace Yze who will now be on the long term injury list? Can we promote Neaves for a couple of games?

I imagine promoting him now would cost money and be rather pointless if he wasn't actually going to play.

Poor bloke. I know how he feels! I go in soon to get mine repaired. Hernias are hell whilst they are developing (feels like you are continually kicked in the balls..), but then settle down once they are finally ripped through the fascia. Couldn't imagine playing elite sport when it was flaring up!

Dr says I can be back excercising in one week. Probably for a top footballer it would be 4 weeks max as it is only a laporoscopic repair. Not season ending by any stretch - nor career ending. Both of these things depend entirely on other circumstances!

a rookie will probably be promoted on the thursday if they thought he was worthy of a game for the weekend, they wont promote someone just for the sake of it

could give a another kid to make a play of things later in the year

    MORE FIERCE by Meggs

    We’re back!  Winning the last three matches has recaptured our Demon spirit and, with superstar players returning from rehab, our Season 2024 dreams are not over yet.   So come along 5.05 pm Saturday afternoon to watch this Round 9 ladder-defining match at the Field of Dreams. Expect the Tigers to be fierce, but surely the Demons will be more fierce. Playing conditions are expected to be a dry 15 degrees with a typically gusty Cranbourne wind. The media opprobrium of the ill-consi

    IN FRONT by Meggs

    In this must-win clash between Melbourne 11th on the ladder and St Kilda 8th, it was the Demons who were in front all day to win in a hard-fought Round 8 clash to make it three in a row to keep theit slim finals chances alive. A good crowd of enthusiastic footy families for week 2 of Pride Round had gathered.  The full pews in the well-appointed RSEA Park grandstand provided excellent viewing.   The Saints won the toss and elected to kick to the southern end favoured by a strong 2-3 g

    THE TRADING CHRONICLES 02

    Part 2: Watching grass grow by Whispering Jack Critics of test cricket (and I’m not one of them) will often claim the sport is excruciatingly boring: that following a five day match is much like watching grass grow. However, the longest form of that game has nothing on the first week of the AFL trade period when it comes to inducing sleep among those in the football public who follows this process in its somnolent moments. The week gone by has been no exception. Only two player trades

    THE CAVALRY ARRIVES by Meggs

    The injury plague which has beset the Demons 2024 campaign is finally starting to dissipate and with consecutive wins over GWS Giants and a 2-point nail-biter in Adelade, a sense of optimism is rising.  Some commentators are now asking whether the Dees can make finals? A huge surprise with team selection this week when it was announced that champs Olivia Purcell, Paxy Paxman and Eden Zanker would play.   Hallelujah!  The cavalry has arrived. St Kilda missed the finals last season on pe

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised
