I thought JW was always aiming for Rd 3-4?

It’s a cop out to stop people asking questions. Tell us what is going on with Walsh.

I agree.

They either don't know or don't want to say neither of which is good.

He did the injury Jan 12.
At the time it was stated, for the media, it was a high grade calf sprain, hence a 6-8 weeks.
That at the time implying he could be ready by just before the Melb praccy round or the Brizzy game.
That gave us hope.

Prior to the Geelong praccy game the club decided it would err on the side of caution and give him all he needed for a full recovery and after the bye.

No the aim wasn't always rounds 3-4. 6-8 weeks became 12 weeks.

It is what it is, but the point some posters are making is the club isn't transparent and now we are getting a lot of "indefinite" returns. Any idea what's happened with Marchbank? I hear it was covid weeks ago, now we still have nothing.

Is this a good thing or bad thing?

IMO its good to say nothing to attract more members, but bad because in future I'm going to join the nervous nellie room, and could mean really bad news.

Jeez was it that long ago for JW?

Re Marchbank, if he has long COVID or whatever you want to call it then they probably really don't know how long it's going to take.

If he has long covid we send Syd to the club with some Strepsils & a Vicks inhaler. That should do the trick. :grin:

I blame the AFL. I can’t help but think that the earlier than anticipated start to the season caused training loads to increase ahead of schedule.

Vicks inhalers are actually really good.

There's rumours going around that Walsh's back is even worse than reported, and he may need surgery again.

He was running laps at training wasn't he?

Going to be hard getting match fitness into these underdone blokes with no reserves game until Easter.

Stupid draw.

ACL for Doc?

missnaut · **Posted:** Sat Mar 09, 2024 5:09 pm

Yep.

Is that his career?
