Barnzy said:Is he still recovering from injury? Crikey. Given he did it with still a couple of months left last season I was hoping he'd get a decent preseason in. I'm no expert on knee dislocations though.
mad_doggy911 said:Interesting Carltank are saying only 6 weeks for Laidler.
zippadeee said:With the news Roughead is back this week, I'm still shocked that he is still on sidelines.
The last time I saw him at training he wasn't even running laps
And that was late Jan.
What's the matter with him now???
A knee dislocation shouldn't take 8 months to recover from.
RedanTiger said:IIRC there was an interview with Dave and he said something about a knee reco.
At a guess I'd say he attempted to return and it was then decided he needed a full knee reco.
Tigermad2005 said:Said he should be back mid year.
I have a feeling we will not see him at all this year.
Knighta said:Thought I'd just say, if David can get back to his best and play in at CHF we should be playing finals in my opinion, hes so smart on the field and would take the pressure off Riedwolt and Vickery.
Very keen to see how he goes in the coming weeks at coburg, pity he ended up coming back to a two week break
Barnzy said:Astbury is miles off best 22 right now and miles off massively improving our side.
Given he was out for nearly 12 months he should play at Coburg for at least 6 weeks and if his form is good and his fitness is up some late season games heading into 2013 wouldn't be a bad thing.
GoodOne said:Another bye for Coburg. The VFL draw is frankly ridiculous. 3 weeks between games.
