Hopefully nothing serious.
Love someone to do games lost through injury since the start of Bevo's tenure.

Re: Injury List - 2022
Keath likely for season opener
Alex Keath looks set to retain his place in the back line after a positive few days at Whitten Oval.
The 30-year-old suffered a heavy shin knock against Brisbane last Friday and despite returning to the field, he succumbed to soreness and swelling, ruling him out after half-time.
All things being equal, Western Bulldogs’ Head of Medical Chris Bell believes Keath should be available for the season opener.
“Keath has shown significant improvement over the last few days and if he gets through training without any issue on Sunday, he will take his place in the back line against the Dees,” Bell said.
Defender Ryan Gardner missed the final practice game against the Lions due to quad tightness and will face a fitness test prior to selection on Sunday.
“If Ryan passes a fitness test on Sunday, he will be declared available for the game,” Bell said.
Recruit Tim O’Brien won’t feature in the team’s opening clash on Wednesday due to a hamstring injury but isn’t far away from a Bulldogs debut.
“Tim won’t play round one, but it won’t be long before you see him pull on the colours of the red white and blue,” Bell said.
Injury list
Bruce (ACL) – 4-5 months
Mclean (ACL) – 4-5 months
Darcy (Foot) – indefinite
O’Brien (Hamstring) – 2 weeks

Re: Injury List - 2022
From the Age:
The Western Bulldogs are sweating on the results of scans on Marcus Bontempelli’s ankle.
The Bulldogs captain hurt his ankle in the third quarter of the game on Wednesday night and though he returned to the field he was running at times with a limp.
Bontempelli was sent for scans on Thursday to reveal the extent of the damage, though it’s not yet clear if he will be able to face Carlton next week.

Injury Update
Western Bulldogs skipper Marcus Bontempelli will be assessed over the next week, before a decision is made on his availability for the Club’s Round 2 clash with Carlton next Thursday.
Bontempelli played out the game despite suffering an ankle injury in the third quarter of the Bulldogs’ Round 1 loss to Melbourne, with scans later confirming a low-level sprain.
“Like any ankle sprain, he has some pain and swelling that we are managing in the early part of this week,” said Bulldogs’ Head of Sports Medicine Chris Bell.
“We will work through a process with Marcus into next week to determine his availability to play against the Blues on Thursday night.”
Jason Johannisen, who was a late withdrawal from the Bulldogs’ Round 1 team, is set for at least a fortnight on the sidelines with a calf injury.
“During the warm-up for the game against the Demons, Jason had an acute episode of calf tightness,” Bell said.
“Scans have confirmed our clinical suspicion that ‘JJ’ has suffered a calf muscle strain.
“We will confirm our return to play plan over the coming days, but expect him to miss the next 2-3 weeks.”
In positive news for the Dogs, Tim O’Brien is set to return from a hamstring injury if he gets through training over the next week.
“Tim successfully completed a game like rehab session last Wednesday. He ticked off full speed and acceleration and has competed a solid block of training,” Bell said.
“If he gets through our final main training session on Monday, he will be putting his hand up for selection.”
Injury list (at March 18)
Marcus Bontempelli (ankle) - TEST
Tim O’Brien (hamstring) – TEST
Jason Johannisen (calf) – 2-3 weeks
Josh Bruce (knee) – 4-5 months
Toby McLean (knee) – 4-5 months
Sam Darcy (foot) – Indefinite

Re: Injury List - 2022
Disappointing to lose JJ for potentially the best part of a month from an injury in the warm up.
Fingers crossed for Bont in particular and TOB.

Re: Injury List - 2022
From The Age
Marcus Bontempelli trained on Monday and is a chance to play against Carlton on Thursday night despite suffering an ankle injury that left him hobbling through the second half of the loss to Melbourne in round one.
Scans cleared the Dogs skipper of any structural issues, revealing only some minor ligament damage, with the Dogs hopeful he will be fit to play this week. They will assess how he recovers from training before testing him in a light captain’s run on Wednesday.

Re: Injury List - 2022
'minor ligament damage'.. can't see them risking his ankle. Not The Bont.

I think it is more likely that he plays.
Some players just play through the pain and Bont looks like he does so on a regular basis

Re: Injury List - 2022
Losing JJ for a month is genuinely disappointing, it looked like he was one of the ones to watch from our preseason.

Re: Injury List - 2022
Surprised Parker is not on this list having taken no part in either the AFL or VFL practice matches….
Anyone can support a team that is winning, it takes no courage. But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you, that takes a lot of courage, so lets always be behind our boys and girls in red, white and blue.
