This club is cursed.

Cruel game - not the first and wont be the last.

Hopefully Doc takes him under his wing early

 

[sethlad]

Horrible news for a kid who lives & breathes footy.

 

[Zim^zuM]

Didn't Daicos just recover from it. He looked ok the other night.

The thing is afl players have access to elite treatment early. Us ordinary people dont

That really sucks, thought he was the best rookie prospect this year for SC, and was looking forward to see what he could do. Would have preferred him go to a club with a bit weaker midfield, but playing anywhere would have been good.

SSP closed on Friday too, horrible timing for the club to get a season long injury.

Think the Blues will be OK still, but if they do end up having a bad year, it's actually a good result (probably not everyone agrees, but Hawks have the Blues first two draft picks).

Think the Blues will be OK still

I think so too, didn't look like Jagga was going to play much midfield at all (I think Lord was ahead of him) but was certainly going to be a big part of the future, as well as more of a midfield role if we lost 2 of Hewett/Cripps/Walsh/Cerra at any stage of the year.

Certainly hurts out depth, but arguably doesn't hurt out 23 at this stage (looked like he was going to play HFF which I don't think he's totally suited to)

And 2 ACL's before Round 1, ouch

Cullum Mills was a lock, I'm not sure now.
How can you manage the training loads when you have mild plantar fasciitis?
Rest is needed to recover.
Googled: mild plantar fasciitis recovery time
A mild case of plantar fasciitis typically takes 6-12 weeks to recover with proper treatment, including stretching and rest, with most people seeing significant improvement within the first two months.

Key points about mild plantar fasciitis recovery:

• Early intervention is key:
  Starting treatment early with rest, ice, stretching, and supportive footwear can significantly shorten recovery time.
  
  
• Pain management:
  Over-the-counter pain medication like ibuprofen can help alleviate discomfort while healing.
  
  
• Physical therapy:
  A physical therapist can provide specific stretches and exercises to strengthen the plantar fascia and calf muscles.
  
  
• Footwear considerations:
  Wearing supportive shoes with good arch support can help reduce strain on the plantar fascia.

Factors that may affect recovery time:

• Severity of the condition: More severe cases may take longer to heal.
  
  
• Activity level: Maintaining high-impact activities during recovery can slow down healing.
  
  
• Age: Older individuals may have slower healing times.

I’ve had a mild/moderate case previously and it was pretty annoying, at least 2-3 weeks of minimal activity and rolling it out before I was relatively pain free. I’d say reduce the recovery time by a week or so with the high level medical treatment AFL players get.

A lot of the issue was dealing with the pain when running and trying to land when bowling. In afl, I would assume changing direction or taking off would be the most painful situations.

In ordinary people its lingers for 12 months. Worst case for these guys though they can have a cortisone if it looks like a long one.

Just gutted for the kid and the club. Hopefully everyone stays strong, offers support and we can have a decent season. I don't want to see the faithful posting negative comments, because that would just be too easy to do.

 

[Russty_]

You can’t be serious. We cannot catch a break, when things start to look good, everything comes crashing down.

Absolutely devastating for Jagga

That's a real shame, all the best to the young fella.

This club is cursed.

Yep, woke up to the news, a txt from a friend and felt sick all day. Was so looking forward to watching him this year.
