Reports online that Gibcus was carried off by two trainers today at training with 'a non-collision leg injury'.

Ffs.

Not concerned about 2023 necessarily, just don't want him to have to go through a Dylan Grimes first five years.

Confirmed now by the media.


Josh Gibcus suffered a suspected serious hamstring injury at training this morning. Carried off the track by two trainers. Will meet with a specialist tomorrow to determine if surgery is required @AFLcomau

"Unfortunately, Josh suffered what we think is a pretty serious hamstring injury (on Monday). It's pretty fresh, he will consult specialists in the next couple of days and we'll know the plan of action from there."

That sucks! Gibbo had put on size in the upper body and looked like he was having a ripper preseason too.

I feel you, although Grimes has had a gun career after that. I thought he was never going to get on the park for a while there.

If our other talls stay fit we are well placed to cover him with all of Grimes, Balta, Tarrant etc. Biggie backup. Don't need to rush the kid back and he can recover properly.

Agreed. Luckily it's not 1997-2010 and we aren't expecting a kid to save us. Get his body right. We already know he's a gem.

If it needs surgery could be out for 4 months.  I don't know anything specific and hope it's not that bad.

unsure why my post thanking you for the inside information was deleted.

Some clarity re deleting posts would be good so we know why

The words said "thanks" but the tone said "stuff off".

It was removed because it was a clear bait of another poster. To suggest otherwise is fanciful.

Baiting is against site rules and can result in a suspension. Take this as your final warning.
