Confirmation of above.  Note however that Reddan is listed in the report as suspected stress fracture which would be season ending.

Very disappointed for Stakes who can not take a trick. Trust this latest setback does not force him into early retirement.

On a personal note Reddans injury with bring an end to my RedRock combo in RDT which I have had since round 1.

Cutler done a groin as well apparently. Lester something with his Quad.

So thats

Redden
Staker
Lester
Cutler

in 2 days

[GoLions]

We seriously cannot catch a break with injuries this year :-\

[Ringo]

Lester does not surprise as he was subbed off a lot earlier than normal on Saturday night and looked sore. Cutler must have done his in NEAFL.

Injury list as at 1st July

Jack Redden (Ankle) - TBC
Tom Cutler (Groin) - 4 weeks
James Polkinghorne (Ankle) - 1-2 weeks
Patrick Wearden (Quad) - 6 weeks
Daniel Rich (Knee) - Season
Brent Staker (Foot) - Season
Luke McGuane (Knee) - Season
Trent West (Knee) - Season

No mention of Lester but Cutler confirmed for four weeks.

Still no confirmation of extent of Reddens injury

wonder is weardon is meant to be Lester

[Ringo]

Could be Strikes because I have not heard any reports on injury to Wearden who returned in the NEAFL on the weekend.

Confirmed that it is Wearden unluckily after returning after a long lay off. Lester trained on  Tuesday and will be monitored,

[Ricochet]

Looks like Redden is done for the season guys

[Big Berger]

Darn, with Redden out where missing quite a few key players; Rich, Leuy etc.

[Vinny]

That sucks for Redden & Brisbane, he was having a nice year.

Does give Zorko more midfield time hopefully.

Could say hard luck to Jack but playing for 5 years without an injury is luck in itself.

At least he will be well rested for a full pre-season

Yeh its a good move, get it fixed now and have him fit for a good pre season and 2015.
