We couldn't have done that. Cat B rookies don't come at the expense of ordinary rookies, they essentially sit outside the standard list. By taking Colina, it didn't cost us an extra ordinary rookie pick. List sizes are 36-38 main list, 4-6 rookies and then up to two Cat B rookies. That is, you can have 44 main list + rookies, and then additionally up to two Cat B rookies.
It's not a soft tissue injury, like a strained hamstring where you miss 3-6 weeks waiting for the muscle to heal.
He has ruptured the tendon that connects the hamstring to the bone. Think of it more like snapping an achilles tendon.
Surgery to reattach, then the tendon has to heal and that takes time as tendons have low blood flow, then you have to repair all the strength and conditioning the leg has lost, then you have to regain the conditioning to play again. It's a long process.
Yeah Jack but they've played Freo, Bulldogs, Essendon and the Suns. Credit to them but in racing parlance that is mid week bush form. Not even Saturday class.
Let's see how they go in the black type.
Add to that the fact that he had an infection in the wound which may have severely compromised his recovery time.
They don’t call it the Phoney Season for nuthen, Riddles!
That said they have some youth.
Like I previously reported, there’s only about 3 surgeons in Melbourne who can perform the repair work on those types of injuries. Apparently the tendon rolls back up towards the buttock and has to be pulled down and reattached. A very specialised area ( like the limited amount of surgeons who would perform Lars a couple of years back )
Unfortunately there was an internal infection which attacks the repaired tendon and the supporting muscles around it.
Would have set him back 6 weeks minimum.
Yep, it's a significant injury, with a return in months rather than weeks.
As I said when he did it, the thinking needs to be anything he does this year is a bonus, and that was before the infection.

Cost cutting.
Gibcus went from 2-3 week hammy to 4-6mth hammy.
No he didn’t - it was always a 10-12 week injury at best. He damaged the tendon, not a standard hamstring tear at all.
He damaged the tendon - was always a 10 plus week injury, and he had an infection after surgery.
