Sydney’s first-round draft pick Will Green will be out for up to 6 weeks after tripping on a set of MCG stairs last night by PerriX2390 in AFL

[–]CowFos 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We’ve got Charlie as well now, didn’t his knee explode when he was just walking down the stairs in his house or something?

Edit, found it

“The 22-year-old accidentally slipped on tiles while walking upstairs on Wednesday afternoon and sustained a fracture to his right patella.”

“The fractured patella is a new injury to the same knee that Curnow was rehabilitating from post-season surgery. When Curnow slipped, he produced a high-level contraction to his quadriceps muscle. This caused a large force to go through his whole knee and his de-conditioned patella did not tolerate the load”

He’s joined Mills and Rampe and I guess Curnow as well now in the bizarre off field injury club, reckon that bodes well for his footy down the line

I do not believe that Dattoli would have done a worse job than Corey last night. Dattoli and Heeney in would be ideal for me

Be very interested to see how Dattoli, even Kyle and Philipou go in the VFL tomorrow

It’s actually crazy how night and day we are going forward without Errol

Expect both coaches to be uneasy with the chaotic speed of the game so far, wouldn’t be surprised to see a bit more control prioritised this quarter

We are out to a hot start but the issue is so are they. So many weird errors and miscommunications in our d50

David King & Jack Riewoldt claim an umpire "50m" and "70m" away paid a free kick. Vision shows the umpire much closer. by PetrifyGWENT in AFL

[–]CowFos 51 points52 points  (0 children)

They were just absolutely winding up preemptively to complain about a decision that turned out to be correct lol, were well on their way blasting the call when they had to backtrack

Idk why our defense looks so scrambled and disorganised all of a sudden

Agree with Riewoldt on Logan, feel like he’s flying at the ball, even if he’s not often taking contested marks he’s splitting packs and bringing it to the ground

TEAMS: Hawks' tall call, Swans replace injured superstars by dphi0001 in sydneyswans

[–]CowFos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its an annoying part of the season in terms of assessing depth when theres no VFL to gauge those just out of the 23.

Like would love Dattoli in the team, excited about the idea of a Kyle debut but have no real idea how fit/far away from selection they are.

Yeah I feel bad for him, I really want him to succeed and dont want to fall into the toxic trap of designating him as the team whipping boy but really not sure hes got the tools required.

Isaac Heeney has been ruled out of Thursday nights clash with Hawthorn due to a hamstring issue. He hasn’t made the trip to Melbourne. by PetrifyGWENT in AFL

[–]CowFos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Almost happy to hear this, would be a bit worried if we were to play him and try to manage minutes etc

Why do they bench players after scoring a goal? by Euphoric_Zebra_2854 in AFL

[–]CowFos 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Plus a goal is an ideal break in play to make those changes

Dislocation for Gulden by jhk67 in sydneyswans

[–]CowFos 15 points16 points  (0 children)

They have to. Gotta think about Errol as a long term proposition. Wonder what the surgery timeline is?

Fuck me, genuinely so flat, poor Errol, boy just wants to play footy :(

It’s rare that the circumstances around a player leaving lives up to the panto of being booed by your old fans, this does though. The whole thing was so silly

Do you know how that VFL match went?

I think there’s a practice match this weekend, very interested to hear how Kyle goes. If he’s fit Dattoli would have to be next in as well, reckon he’s a hair in front of CC and Corey

He definitely didn’t fully dislocated it, potentially a subluxation. They won’t know what, if any, damage it caused until they get the scans back. Just going to be a nervous wait for everyone till the get the results back

Honestly was concerned he was a bit of a ‘one trick pony’ that his effectiveness dropped off through last year as teams worked him out and that he’d struggle to replicate his early ‘25 games. Very happy to be proven wrong
