McVeigh hamstring - 4 weeks

[Lloyd is King]

What a raging bummer. Great leadership from him tonite.

But more soft tissue injuries is a real worry.

KILL QUINN!!!

No, let's just implement a new rule, that every Monday at training every player rehabing a hamstring injury gets to spend all training session punching the crap out of Quinn.

It might motivate the bastard to actually to do something!!!

And f*** the AFL...3 weeks in to the season and we are yet to get a 6 day break, got to have been playing some part in our injury toll!!

f***

The Captaincy Curse has struck again. 1999 is repeating itself.....except, we won't be playing finals.

This made me laugh.

There were several threads dedicated to Quinn during the week. We must get rid of him, he is obviously not doing his job properly.

this was happening to the Saint for a couple of years....it is becoming a joke now....something must be done. Jetta Welsh Dempsey, well they can be covered. but to lose McVeigh tonight is going to be a huge loss. He has become our key player. Such leadership and committment. Lonegan has done a hammy as well, and Winderlich groin is gone...what the f*** is going on!!!

[hop]

Had an absolute gutfull of this!

FFS SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE!!!

A good starting point would be for the club to come out this week and acknowledge that it is a problem and don't bury it as 'bad luck' or 'one of those things that happens to teams'. This has been going on at Essendon more often and much longer than anywhere else.

I suspect it is Docklands and the club wont bag this joint and its crap playing surface (even though every retiring player says it cruels their recovery) and I also POINT THE FINGER AT QUINN!!!

FFS SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE.

It is just not right that we can play like we did tonight and fundamentally lose because of our shit management of this one key area.

It is too disheartening for the players, the club and the supporters. We all deserve more with the commitment our blokes are showing on the paddock (or should I say tarmac).

FOR f**** SAKE

The look on McVeigh's face as he came off..and then later the look on Knight's face as he left the coach's box at the end of the game..said it all. We deserved to win and only hamquinn lost it for us. If the man is even half decent, you would think he would resign NOW.

Absolutely...McMahon was a great president but why the f*** he ever signed a 25 year stadium deal with the management of this white elephant is f****** beyond me.

MCVeigh's injury was the biggest downer about last night, he was winning the game for us and leading the club beautifully and its a shame that he will be out of action for 4 weeks especially with players like Lucas and Lloyd already out. I am getting sick and tired of the number of players we are losing each week due to hamstrings.
