I was at training last Thursday. All he (Wills) did was run laps, and lots of them. |

Maybe a bit over the top.
I'm sure he'd be swimming and doing other things to maintain his fitness, it's not like he's lost a leg! _________________ Don't count the days, make the days count. |

By and large we are in pretty good shape actually. Especially we you look at the longer term stuff hitting some other clubs. Perhaps it's our turn for a relatively injury free year which should enable us to keep a quality core of players on the field each week. _________________ No one needs to get hurt, it's only business. |

so in one week Wells injury has progressed from 1 week to 2-4 weeks. Me smells a concern here. this is how Nick Maxwell's career ended. _________________ Ohhh, the Premiership's a cakewalk ....... |

Not a problem. Some time back I posted a similar comment and have had the fingers and toes crossed ever since, all the Buddhas worn and prayed to, and most importantly, I've been to the shoe slappers in Causeway Bar and paid for 18 curses to be placed on opposition teams (2 for the scum). The shoe slappers are ancient Chinese ladies who burn incense and scream insults and curses while slapping a shoe on a picture of the recipient. Works for me here in Hong Kong. Patience my nervous friend we will be fine. _________________ No one needs to get hurt, it's only business. |

Scott Pendlebury says Collingwood in better shape to push for finals than last year
March 16, 20176:48pm
Glenn McFarlane, Herald Sun
COLLINGWOOD captain Scott Pendlebury is buoyant the club can break a frustrating three-year finals drought given the health of the playing list and a renewed confidence in the club’s defensive set-ups.
A week out from the Magpies’ opening game against the reigning premiers, the Western Bulldogs, Pendlebury said he was far more content with where the team sits now than he was at the same stage of 2016.
“I am a lot happier ... I think we are in a much better place,” Pendlebury said.
Part of that comes from his belief the club’s wretched run of injuries, which have hurt throughout much of Nathan Buckley’s tenure as coach, might finally be coming to an end.
“Health-wise, we are pretty good at the moment,” Pendlebury said, with high-profile recruit Daniel Wells (calf) one of the few players already ruled out for Round 1, with Jamie Elliott (ankle) still trying to prove his fitness.
“It (the injury tide) is turning. I really do believe this is the year that we will turn it around and get a clean run.
“Every year it has happened and it does put a lot of pressure onto guys who are not quite ready for it. All of a sudden you are expecting a second-year player to play like a fifth-year player, and it makes it difficult.”

Do we assume then that Wills is back in full training? |

Wells was always a massive injury risk in my mind and so far it isn't looking great. _________________ He's mad. He's bad. He's MaynHARD! |

I cant find anything on Wills. We'll keep an eye out to see if he gets a run in the VFL hitout.

He's back at full training and played in the first half of the VFL last week. Shall start to play full game time in the VFL soon. But he's over the illness and will be working to catch up on his match fitness.

I don't think it's as bad as it seems. Supporters will be anxious to see him play. I'm hoping to see him by Anzac Day. _________________ A Goal Saved Is 2 Goals Earned! |

OP Updated.
Quote: | Jordan De Goey Thigh Test
Tipped to miss round one, but should return to full training to make his case for round 2.
Jamie Elliott Ankle Test
Another expected to miss round one. However, will be returning to full training with the hope to push for selection in round 2 or 3.
Levi Greenwood Hamstring Test
Another test. Doubtful for round one, but might make a cameo in the VFL hitout.
Daniel Wells Calf 2-4 weeks
Hopefully can get back to full training and make a case for Anzac Day.
Ben Sinclair * Hamstring 8-12 weeks
Placed on the LTI list. Wont be seen on the track for some time. |
3 players listed as a test with Wells a few weeks off and Sinclair an LTI. Pendlebury expected to play Round 1. No info on Wills. _________________ A Goal Saved Is 2 Goals Earned! |

Where does this information come from? The latest 'injury report' on the CFC website is dated 7 March, which is pretty poor form. |
