Discussion 2015: Injury/Suspension Updates

[Junior Wölf]

Nicnat will miss again this week for obvious reasons

Sorry NicNat but have to use last trade to keep my top 1000 birth alive.

Not sure if anybody still has him but...

Melbourne's midfield depth has taken a hit, with burly on-baller Aaron vandenBerg likely to miss the rest of the season with an ankle injury. The rookie revelation injured his ankle at training last Friday and was replaced by Matt Jones for Sunday's game against North Melbourne at the MCG.

Any chance Ziebell will get off? Can't remember if he's got a clean record.

Swinging round arm from behind, so I doubt it.

Maybe a fine? Who would know.

Maybe a fine? Who would know.

Ziebell was suspended three times for bumps from 2012-13, but has not been suspended since, which for the purposes of the new MRP system gives him a clean record.
Hopefully a fine.

Not sure how many have Chris Masten but this doesn't sound good, this is from the H/Sun

"WEST Coast midfielder Chris Masten is under investigation after claims he bit Fremantle opponent Nick Suban in a spiteful Western Derby.

The match review panel is searching for TV footage of the second-half incident and will decide today whether Masten should be charged.

Suban yelled “He bit me!” as the pair tangled on the ground after Masten laid a strong tackle near the boundary line.

An umpire noted the allegation but did not lay a report during the match."

As a bulldog who wants to remain in 4th position, hopefully that incident comes back to bite Masten and West Coast.

Does that explain his crap performance on Saturday?
Waiting for some official news...

 

[I am Cursed :(]

Any update on Hurley? I got him in, he hurt his knee and he's missed the past 2 weeks. Would dearly love to have him back for the prelim.

He did not join the main group in training last Thursday. There is an open training session this Thursday so hopeful we will get word on how well he trains then.

Hey mate, saw this from someone who posted on the FanFooty forums, not sure how accurate it is...

Kelly was subbed off with an ankle on Saturday night, might not get up this week, otherwise your team is looking very solid!

Cheers MMM, missed that. Wasn't mentioned on the little comments that they have on FF so thought it was injury related. I guess it's a good thing he was injured and not subbed for player management...i guess (clutching at straws here)

Luke Parker's injury not as bad as first thought. Had surgery, 4-5 weeks so not season over if Swans go deep in finals

That's good news. Some of the talk had me worried it would've been a major major injury for him that might've effected him next year..or possibly beyond so good to hear he'll be able to return this year
