Agree on the loading leading to soreness. Whilst not ideal it’s the best guide for the fitness guys to plan out his rehab for next 3-4 weeks.Sounds like he reported soreness after they upped his workload leading into playing. Sensible to back off for a week or two before building load again. He did have a major hamstring injury requiring surgery - 12-16 weeks is fairly typical recovery time I thought.
Yep I see absolutely no need to rush the kid back,Got to ease him back slowly and we can't afford losing him because he become in injury prone especially after the promise he showed early on last season
Yep. Starting to look like it now.Far too many repeat injuries this year for it to be a freak occurrences. It's mismanagement.
Something is off with our management methods. Needs intervention, now. And a restructure next year, we've been off all year in this area.
FFS multiple players have had set-backs coming back from injuries, hamstring strain in a different spot. This does not bode well he did it only in warm up drillsTotal *smile* up.
Josh Gibcus injury update
The Club will take a conservative approach with young defender Josh Gibcus’ hamstring injury after the youngster suffered a setback at training on Thursday.www.richmondfc.com.au
Agreed his use of words is very ordinary.This is not good, Meehan says “It’s not as significant as his injury in January, and is in a different spot.
In a different spot is still bad, as it shows just how tender those hammies are. Not a good sign for a 19-year-old.
He also goes on to say> The Club will take a conservative approach with young defender Josh Gibcus’.
Isn't that what they did with the first major hammy, it's now been 3 months since he did it.
That’s of real concern now.Agreed his use of words is very ordinary.
Shouldn’t reference a freak impact injury where the tendon tore off the bone to the latest hamstring strain. People use it as a comparison. Should have massaged the dialogue so people understand the intricacies of coming back from a serious injury to put people at ease.
What I don’t like about the new injury itself is that up to now, Gibcus wasn’t suspect to soft tissue injuries.
He is now.
