Injury update
« on: November 04, 2018, 04:41:17 PM »
Injury list:
 
Jack Graham is facing a delayed start to pre-season after an October shoulder reconstruction. He'll start running when the players return but won't engage in contract drills until the New Year.

Others to undergo minor operations include Jack Riewoldt (shoulder), Josh Caddy (ankle), Dylan Grimes (finger), Ryan Garthwaite (ankle) and Ben Miller (hip).

Tom Lynch has been tentatively pencilled in to start pre-season on time with plans for him to commence running in November after July knee surgery.

Injury list - Feb 11

Jason Castagna: Going well in his recovery from a high ankle sprain that saw him wearing a moonboot on the club's training camp. Completing running drills away from the main group,  and the club is pleased with how he is progressing. About a week away from returning to full training.

Ryan Garthwaite: Has had a niggling Achilles issue which has impacted his pre-season somewhat. Slowly recovering, is running well but rotating in and out of the main group.

Jack Graham: Nearly back to full training after a left shoulder reconstruction post-season. Doing everything except for select contact drills and is training without strapping on the affected area.

Dylan Grimes: Suffered an unfortunate broken nose at training three weeks ago. Has not affected his training much at all, except for the addition of an interesting protective mask over his face, which he is still wearing.

Tom Lynch: Slowly but surely progressing after surgery on his right PCL and a subsequent clean-up surgery for scar tissue. Club is taking things cautiously with the star recruit. Still doing running drills on the side on occasion, but also joining in with the main training group and moving well.

Jacob Townsend:
Has recovered from a fractured lower fibula/ankle which ruled him out of Richmond's finals campaign, but is not quite at full training due to some thigh soreness.

RICHMOND

Player            Injury   Estimated Return
 Josh Caddy     Ankle     2-3 week
 Jason Castagna     Ankle     1 week
 Ryan Garthwaite     Achilles     TBC
 Jack Graham     Shoulder     Available
 Tom Lynch     PCL     TBC
 Jacob Townsend     Thigh     TBC


Early prognosis

A few lingering injuries rather than serious long-term issues for Richmond. Graham is back in contact training and should be right for round one against Carlton, while Caddy is in a similar boat, on light duties for a few weeks with a sore ankle. Castagna is another one who should be in the selection frame next month. Reports have said Lynch is unlikely to play JLT matches but is still in contention for round one. Garthwaite and Townsend have been dealing with niggling issues, moving in and out of the main training group and are on the fringes of Richmond's best 22 regardless.

Player            Injury          Estimated Return

 Josh Caddy          Ankle     4-8 weeks
 Jason Castagna    Ankle     1-3 weeks
 Ryan Garthwaite  Achilles     1-3 weeks
 Shaun Grigg         Knee     4-8 weeks
 Tom Lynch            PCL     2-5 weeks
 Jacob Townsend   Thigh     1-3 weeks

Updated: Tuesday, March 5

Early prognosis

A few changes in Richmond's injury list, with Caddy now looking highly unlikely to play round one as he battles an ankle complaint. Star recruit Lynch will also be racing against the clock, with the club having erred on the side of caution with his rehab this summer. Premiership "ruckman" and winger Grigg has had problems with his knee and has been ruled out until at least round three. It's a structural issue in his knee that's causing problems with kicking, rather than running. Castagna, Garthwaite and Townsend remain on track for selection in rounds one or two.

Player                 Injury        Estimated Return
 Josh Caddy           Ankle     3-7 weeks
 Jason Castagna     Ankle     1-2 weeks
 Ryan Garthwaite  Achilles     1-2 weeks
 Shaun Grigg          Knee     Indefinite
 Dylan Grimes   Corked glute     Test
 Tom Lynch            PCL     2-4 weeks
 Jacob Townsend   Thigh     1-2 weeks
 Nick Vlastuin       Jarred knee     Test

Updated: Tuesday, March 12

Early prognosis

There'll be a handful of Tigers racing the clock for round one selection, with Lynch and Castagna the first-choice players most under the pump. Grimes and Vlastuin picked up minor injuries in the second JLT match but should be right for round one. Grigg remains some way back, starting to build his training loads after being sidelined with a joint issue in his knee. - Sarah Black

Peter Burge's update:

Tom Lynch, PCL


"Tom’s been full-training with the group now for probably nearly two weeks. He’s been in the skills program now for about five or six weeks. He’s going fantastically well, even in the session yesterday he looked pretty good. It’s a long-term injury so we’re obviously taking a very measured approach but he is getting closer. That’s going to be a decision between the medical, coaching and fitness team but hopefully over the next week we’ll be able to enlighten some people with that news."

Josh Caddy, ankle


"Josh has resumed running and he’s feeling really good. He missed nearly three weeks where he wasn’t able to do any running, so we probably have to extend the timeframe a little bit with reconditioning and then back into the football program, so he’s probably about a week away from resuming some skill work and then we have to make an assessment about what that looks like with match play."

Jason Castagna, ankle

"George has been back in full skills now for two weeks. We’re looking next week at playing some game time, most likely through the VFL. He’s ready for some game time next week."

Shaun Grigg, knee

"Grigga’s injury has been a little bit vague. We've had a little bit of progress this week. He’s had four or five scans in the last couple of weeks to work out what the program is and we seem to have narrowed it down. He’s had some treatment this week which he responded really well to. He’s been running for the last five weeks or so but we just haven’t been able to train at a high intensity. But we think now in the next week we might be able to progress that."

Ryan Garthwaite, Achilles


"Garthy missed quite a bit of pre-season football training, he’s been conditioning for a while, he had an Achilles tendonitis issue which is resolved now. He’s been training with the main group for three to four weeks, and we’ll probably see him play some game time next week through the VFL which is exciting for him but we’ll take a cautious approach over those first couple of weeks with his game time and build him up slowly."

Jacob Townsend, thigh


"Jacob has had an interrupted preparation. He had a little bit of participation with the group before Christmas, so he had that interruption January/February with the stress reaction in his femur but he’s been training with the main group for about two to three weeks now, he’ll play some game time through the VFL next week, he’s excited about that."

There’s a photo of him at training so if that’s the case, it’s a bit confusing.
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

He hasn't been happy with the ankle. Doctors are only considering further surgery even if he is training lightly. That is why he is "indefinite". No decision has been made yet.
