RSS: Injury list after Round 9

[Triple B]

He must be very close to being off the list. It was around Rd 2'ish that he was put on it from memory.

And last week was 1-2 weeks, so here's hoping he is back soon.

How many weeks in the 2's for him??

... Before LRT can play again, he needs to be taken off the long term list and Jack will be removed. Unless of course we have another long term injury to add.

This is certainly correct regarding rookie promotion when done as a result of a long term injury.

However, without another long term injury I believe Sydney could (if they have not already done so) name up to two rookie listed players, including Jack, as an 'eligible rookie' allowing for possible first team selection. This is because O'Loughlin & Barry are on the Sydney list as 'veteran's - inside list'.

This would affect total player payments (TPP) and if the minimum wage stipulated in the AFL - AFLPA collective agreement would take Sydney's TPP above the salary cap the eligible rookie nomination could not be done.

Yes. Correct. Having the two veterans does give us fexibility to do that.

However, I think you'll find that the nominated two Rookies have already been named. Not sure who, but think this has already occured....

[Layby]

Kennelly got one of those weird viruses (sp?) that inflames the knee?

MRSA nasty business

About 2?

He seemed to be moving quite freely a couple of weeks ago. Perhaps he'll be named in the reserves this week.

[Triple B]

According to the first mention on this site, it was reported in the SMH on 10th April which was the Tuesday after Rd 2. This would mean LRT would not be able to play this week.

Of course there is a strong possibility that the paperwork/fax/email/whatever was lodged with the AFL before Rd 2, in which case he would be free to play and Jack goes back to the rookie list.

I think that sounds about right.

[TheMase]

Pretty sure there was an article a couple of weeks back suggesting he would return to training at about Round 9.

Once he is training again I believe Jack reverts back to the rookie list. Expect that announcement any day I would think.

Here is some news on LRT's progress, plus updates on Davis (likely to play this week), Kennelly (possible to play) and Crouch (almost certain to miss one).

[Robbo]

I hope Daniel O'Keefe doesn't turn out to be one of these injury ravaged players because the kid has talent.

[sharp9]

I hope that DOK doesn't turn out to be Josh Willoughby when we could have had Jetta, Morton, Davey(?), for a start.

It was reported on ABC radio yesterday that Kennelly and Crouch were both in doubt for this week.
