Opens the door for Hall/Lonergan... http://www.afl.com.au/news/2016-02-24/another-setback-for-key-sun-david-swallow Riski also pulling up sore from weekend.
Not an injury per se (though perhaps symptomatic of one). http://www.afl.com.au/news/2016-02-26/ive-lost-my-passion-matthew-jaensch-announces-retirement What does Crabs defence look like in light of this? Other than Laird/Smith, who else is in the frame for rebounding defender job?
And then Lonergan goes and rolls an ankle last night. Hopefully not serious. Jetta also pinged a calf, but he isn't all that fantasy relevant
Luckless Eagles defender to miss eight weeks Travis King March 8, 2016 7:33 AM WEST Coast defender Mitch Brown's tough run of luck has continued, with the 27-year-old set to miss at least eight weeks after finger surgery. But the news is more positive for recruit Lewis Jetta, who has avoided a serious calf injury and is on track for round one, while Chris Masten is six weeks away from returning from an ankle problem. In just his second NAB Challenge game back after a knee reconstruction, Brown ruptured his tendon on the middle finger of his left hand against Gold Coast last Thursday. The 195cm big man has undergone surgery that is likely to rule him out until at least round five or six. Meanwhile, Jetta had been in good touch against the Suns in his second match for the club since his switch from the Sydney Swans when he hobbled off with a calf sprain just before half-time. However, the electric 26-year-old was back jogging at a rehabilitation session on Monday and is aiming for a club debut against the Brisbane Lions in round one. Masten, who badly hurt his ankle in an intra-club match last month, is progressing well and should return in about six weeks after an initial eight to 10-week prognosis.

The Demons have opted to give Christian Petracca, who injured his toe playing basketball at Christmas time, a full month of solid training before having him ready to play. Still a month away.

Did you notice our shiny new Injuries button on the stats page? http://tooserious.net/forum/stats.php?injury=1
Cool stuff on stats page. Just went to stats page rather than that link and see what you talking about. Great addition there.
Fremantle Dockers @freodockers 4s4 seconds ago Ross Lyon has confirmed Harley Bennell injured calf in yesterday’s game for Peel #ForeverFreo
Eagles midfield looking thin. Masten 5 weeks, Sheed 10 weeks, Jetta 1-2 weeks. Does this make Yeo hot property again?
