UPDATE: Club by Club Injury List (6 Mar 2013)
Posted by Football NationMar 6. 2013 3:39 pm
AS usual we are still waiting on better team released injury reports so in the meantime we continue to do our best in assembling a report for every club. Hopefully we’ll be back to a more thorough report as we approach the home and away season.
There’s not a lot of detail available at the moment but we’ve tried our best to assemble the list from various sources.
Some of the new additions to the injury report this week include:
- Western Bulldog Jake Stringer went down in the final quarter of the game against Hawthorn and will be out for three to four weeks.
- The Saints revealed Rhys Stanley had avoided major damage to his left knee but he will miss some time nonetheless.
- Hawthorn’s Luke Hodge was already on the report but his comeback has now been pushed out…..
Return dates are approximations and best guesses but don’t place any bets based on them!
As usual we’ve tried to make this list as accurate as possible but many clubs aren’t up to date on their websites so let us know if we’ve made any mistakes!
