Eels.v Round One 2018 Team List Thread

Knee injuries wont effect running in a straight line so much, it is more then turning.
Do you expect him to comeback at same level he was last season? I dont. I dont see him being much good till back end of year and Bevan or Hayne will be better options untill he does regain his form.

 

[strider]

i would say he might be back before round 8 ... but not before round 4

 

[Bazal]

Zero hope before Round 4. Absolutely none. If we risk him we are as dumb as we were when we recorded ourselves talking about cheating the cap

Yes, yes I do. And if he is not I’ll be screaming for his sacking.

 

[parrathruandthru]

only started opposed contact last week

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Then he should've been doing unopposed contact the rest of the time FFS!

 

[Noise]

That sounds like masturbation to me

 

[Happy MEel]

That sounds like masturbation to me

...and he should have developed calluses if he was serious about his recovery.

If no other merkin will throw you around you have to do it yourself.

 

[Gronk]

I will throw a conspiracy at you. Anyone think that old Mad Dog BA might have a trick up his sleeve re Gutherson? For someone due back round 8 he looks pretty healthy...

It’s all about minimising the risk if the injury reoccurring.

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

Yeh, well you blokes are all assuming that he did, in fact, injure his ACL last year. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink, say no more.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

It wouldn't be a good look for one of the game's most marketable young players to receive a long term suspension for dealing heroin.

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

After rubbing out JFK and Elvis and David Bowie and the Beaumont children, you'd have thought the fuzz would have kept a closer eye on Clintoris.

So after 9 months he'll have a -50% chance of re-injury? Give him another month off!

It's a geometric progression. Asymptotic and all that shit

 

[Gary Gutful]

Really? He appears to be leading the drills.

He looks like he is grimacing in pain whilst quietly dying a little on the inside in the knowledge that he is just a man, a man who sadly can't live up to the expectations of fawning fans willing his weak and fragile body to do things that he can't deliver.

Well, at least until Rd 8 anyway.

 

[Basil Brush]

We can cover Gutho.

Give him as long as he needs.

If that is rd 10, i am fine with that.

Agreed.

 

[Twizzle]

we need to make sure we have him available for the business end of the season

Yep, End of Financial Year you need all your best players on deck
