Heppell & Hanley

[Jormas]

Having both of them and with backlines already in trouble... any news on their injury extent?

Will they miss a game this week?

Who do we trade them to?

Only possible options i could think of are: Duffield, Scotland, Grimes. Defence is lacking premo's this year.

[Sh*tatdt]

match report had no injuries to report in the brisbane game but i think heppell will miss atleast one

[Spanner221]

Heppel is the most traded out player so far with Harry O being the most common replacement... food for thought

Hibberd, Harry O, Duffield (although I've been burnt by him once already this year).

Hoping that Ibbo is back and Hanley plays.

Potential stress fractures for Heppell, don't think he'll play for 2 weeks.

Heppell and Hanley will miss all of next season and will be forced to retire due to there injuries.

I think Hanley won't miss any games ftr

[Mr.Craig]

Hanley received a hip flexor injury in the first quarter of the 60-point win over GWS at the Gabba last Saturday night and will have scans today.

"I'm a bit sore," Hanley said.

"It wasn't too bad but just a little bit tight so they subbed me off in the third quarter as a bit of a precaution."

Hampered by the hip problem, he collected 11 touches and one goal in Brisbane's romp over the last-placed Giants.

I'm hopeful on Hanley (also have Ibbo/Henderson) but would be surprised if Heppell played

Pittard had a hip flexor, sat out for 5 weeks

Pittard had a hip flexor, sat out for 5 weeks

I asked some of the health science people at uni about hip flexor's back when Pittard had one. They said that it could be anywhere from 3 days to 6 weeks. However if they are stating it as an injury unlikely to get back for 4 weeks (hence why I traded Pittard!)

They are only 2nd years but its food for thought

Bob Murphy anyone? Been in ripping form recently and has Brisbane and Melbourne in his next two...

Agree he is in great form and has a good run home.

[its me lads]

That's Jasper Pittard though. 1 little bruise and he'd be out for 2 weeks :P


I'm getting on Bob Murphy as well.
