Re: Injury List - 2015

Jong for Wallis this week ?

Injury list from 4/5/15 states Wallis out for 1 week. Doing the math, I think this means he won't be available for the Saints match.

Re: Injury List - 2015

Are they going to put screws or plates in Jong's hand I wonder? Gerard Whateley, I think it was, said it was his wrist. I broke my fifth metacarpal four months ago and its still bad and stiff but I'm 61. Jong is going to be impossible to replace. What's his name Cryin Gryphon was the closest; he was nearly as good.

I read it was fractured and he had the operation yesterday. Fractured I guess is not as bad as a break.

Bad luck for Jongy.
Hunter to come in for him maybe

Fractured and broken are interchangeable words in medicine. There are certainly degrees of fractures though, and with over 27 bones in the hand it's hard to know exactly what his exact injury or management will be.
Obviously the doctors and physios are content that Lin's break is on the minor end of scale, potentially in a bone with minimal movement meaning a pin to hold it in place will be enough. I'd imagine that for Lin to get back within two weeks he will need quite a lot of painkillers, and given bones take around 6 weeks to heal there would be ongoing risk of re injury.

Hope it all goes well, his burst speed and physicality around the contest is hugely important.

Re: Injury List - 2015

Apart from Clay's injury the injury report seemed pretty positive. Boyd, Wallis and Jong will all have tests later in the week and Stevens is expected to play. No mention of Stringer at all.

Cordy, Daniel and Darley all could play VFL this week.

Re: Injury List - 2015

Last week we still had Zaine Cordy out for three more weeks, now on another thread he is playing this week in the two's.
There is no rush on the kid so I can't see any reason why he couldn't sit out for another two to be sure,

I doubt they'll throw him in for full games yet. I'm sure he and even Daniel will be on minute restrictions for a week or two.

Re: Injury List - 2015

Some horror injuries to Libba & Smith of course but only 3 best 22 players injured isn't too bad

Re: Injury List - 2015

Good to see 6 players are training and a good chance to return to competitive football this weekend.
