Injury List - Preseason 2017

Re: Injury List - Preseason 2017

I realise there are probably more opportunities for Jack in defence, but he isn't a defender. He plays his best footy as a forward, utilising his accurate boot, strong marking a bustling frame.

New role ear-marked for big Jack I see.

Lazy reporting

Picken has a fractured cheekbone and will miss the first JLT match and probably a couple of weeks of training.

Liam Picken has surgery on fractured cheekbone


Liam Picken has had surgery on a fractured cheekbone.

The Western Bulldogs tough nut suffered the injury during a head clash at training.
He's expected to miss two weeks of training, as well as the Dogs' first pre-season game.

"He's not in doubt for Round 1," Mitch Cleary explained on Sportsday.

"They're still going hell for leather down at the Dogs."

Re: Injury List - Preseason 2017

Was at Hotel 520 the other week for a GF footy function. M Boyd, Stringer, Johno and Dougy were there.
Stringer implied that he shoulder was feeling better and he told the club doc. Then he deliberately missed his appointment with the surgeon. So nothing has happened to his shoulder. l hope this was all tongue and cheek and there is nothing wrong with the shoulder.

I so hope this is not true. I hate the idea that Jake avoided prescribed surgery by not complying. Men do things like that but surely not a professional footballer. Something was holding Jake back last season, be it emotion and/or injury. We need him at his best and not restricted in the way he seemed to be last season.

Current report he will be out for about 8 to 10weeks, depends on scans today.

From The Age

Meanwhile the Bulldogs say they are yet to determine the severity of ruckman Jordan Roughead's hamstring injury, suffered in the same game. It was initially feared Roughead had hurt his knee after landing awkwardly following a ruck contest late in the first quarter, but the club has confirmed the injury is hamstring related, with further details likely on Tuesday morning.

"The medicos are working through that at the minute, but there is some pain in the hamstring," Dogs development coach Chris Maple said in Ballarat on Monday during the club's community camp.


"We haven't determined how long [he'll be sidelined] he is sore and we'll find out in the next couple of days."

Depends on the grade of the tear I think.

From BF

Roughy's injury is where the hammy attaches to the knee, still unsure if it will need surgery
