Re: Pre-Game Pressure: AFL 2019 Rd 11: Carlton vs the Drug Cheats - Jack Burton - 05-30-2019
My brother is a doctor and has been a local footy club doctor for a couple of decades. He was shocked that Simpson was coming bcak from a hamstring strain so quickly. He said once guys get over 30, if they do a string, it's usually 5-6 weeks to get back, even for a minor strain. They just don't heal as quickly. I suspect he puled up sore in the hammy after Sunday's game and they are going to give it another week or two to get it right

x3... be good to see Kerr playing, Hooker and Hurley though probably not the easiest potential opponents...

Wrong! His hamstring still isn't right.

Then it wouldn't say "managed", it would say "hamstring".

Nah we rushed another one back.
He was probably shocking because of his hamstring.

Garlett might be in the thinking as a defensive forward option against Saad? His run off half back is critical for Essendon and not sure we have anyone with that sort of speed....him or Polson might get a gig for that exact role. But I'm hoping Kerr gets a crack at it.

It's probably not fair to Kerr given the forecast, I hope if they do bring him in it's not just for one game as cover for McGovern.
For me giving Kerr a crack is an opportunity for Charlie to go back and find some form, do it know while he has Daisy in the VFL to keep him focused on the job!
