Shawn Blore #235

I bought up his wrist injury the other day but the topic got deleted because it got sidetracked.
If he is out for a few weeks that will throw a huge spanner into the team make up.
Chee kam on the bench and garner starting?
That's a small and less intimidating second row from 1 injury

I liked the look of Tuki Simpkins yesterday, he might get a run ahead of Chee Kam on the bench.

Does have a wrist injury.

Any idea on severity/how long he will be out?


I have zero idea but I have had a few wrist injuries (cue poor jokes). He was at the trial and he had it strapped but it was just a bandage, not a brace or guard. To me that indicates its not that serious.

Yeah, I noticed the same, probably a high grade sprain or something. They can be just as painful as breaks though honestly.

Apparently Billy Walters said on a podcast Blore needs surgery and will miss the first few weeks.

He looked far more like a FG player than MCK does.He hit hard in defence and ok in attack with few opportunities

Did Blore play at all yesterday? Thought I saw him on the sideline in playing gear but don't remember him being mentioned in the call.
Tuki Simpkins did everything possible yesterday to ensure he is next in line for a call-up.

I love the combination of Blore and McIntyre in the 2nd row, they are both budding enforcers and give us that aggression that the big teams have.
Get an off-season under this pair to develop their bulk and look out!
I hope we can fit McIntyre in our Cap, it’s shrinking with offers to JAC and Tamou so a back ended deal may be possible once the Shelf ‘Packer’ is extinguished.
I bet Madge regrets extending Chee Kam - when you compare the upside of Blore and McIntyre to Chee Kam, happy for a 15 minute cameo appearance per game which can’t come quick enough so he can cuddle the opposition at full time.

Cracked up at the Chee Kam reference! He's not there to play footy, just likes the aftermatch chit chat with anybody willing to listen. Like the desperate who sits at the bar all day regaling anybody stupid enough to sidle up next to him with stories of past glories and missed opportunities.

He won’t be re-signed at the end of the year

Hoping you mean MCK and not Blore

I heard that midweek but watching yesterday I thought I saw him in his playing gear. Watching on a 4' screen on my mobile though so it could of been anybody.

Blore was on the sideline but not in his footy gear, I didn't see any scraping on his wrist.

 

[tigerbenji]

Should of said straping.

At half time he was walking around the team with his wrist bandaged.

Will probably miss a quarter of the seaso if needing surgery.

 

[Elderslie_Tiger]


If he's had or is having surgery he will be out fir at least six weeks with the wrist having to be immobilised for the healing to take place and he should be strapped or in a brace awaiting surgery

Which if he had last week is 3 weeks before the season started so Rd 3 return is reasonable.

Blore and Musgrave out early,

The season just took its first turn.

Jeres the opportunity for Tamou, Joffa, twal Luch, tommyM to all step up.
