Player Watch #19: Griffin 'Gus the Goose-stepper’ Logue - set to return via the VFL this week.

[Themanbun]

Hold yer damn horses. 11 months is standard and he suffered a 2-4 week hamstring setback in his final block of work. He is on track.

 

[Orange Peanut]

Murray from crows did an acl rd 19 last year and played his first game in sanfl last week - why has Logue taken so long

Didn't he strain a hammy just as he was about to start stepping it up?

 

[The Nostradamus]

yeah probably without the hamstring set back he’d be playing by now

Should only be 2-3 weeks away

 

[shinboner magic]

I’m sure none of these things are exactly the same.

What are you suggesting?

We always err on the side of caution.
Our medical team waited a whole season to let garner play

 

[amaz199]

We are being extremely precautious with ACLs because if he comes back early, guess what, he will do something again then we're ****ed.

Get it right the first time.

No need to rush him back.

It's not as if Griff is rushing back to try and play finals or anything. Play the long game.

 

[Muscles Thommo]

No need to rush him back.

You are right, will make stuff all's difference to the result

is also edging towards his first appearance for the club since going down with an ACL injury in Round 17, 2023.

"Griffin completed an extensive battery of assessments in Sydney on Monday which have come back with strong indicators that enable a return to play in the coming weeks," White said.

"He'll look to use the next two weeks as a preparation-to-play block through unrestricted group training, plus weekend game-loading footy conditioning sessions.

"All going to plan we envisage a return via the VFL in two weeks."

Man, albeit it’s extended- but that’s what a pre-season physique looks like

Who’s number 22 in the background? Goad?

Who’s number 22 in the background? Goad?

Yep.

 

[Gasometer]

Is he going to be back for the GoDeez win?

 

[RossHenshaw]

So good to see him back.
No knee brace or anything either .

 

[King Corey]

Shiels "This is great but you need to understand this wouldn't be considered high intensity at any other club"

 

[kool kangas]

Is he going to be back for the GoDeez win?

l'm thinking he'll be back for our home game against the Doggies . June 29th Round 16..

 

[ChairmanZia]

Let him get a month of conditioning and strength.

He must be showing good form in vfl b4 even considered.

 

[Ge3ks]

Great to hear old mate Griff' is nearly ready to return. Such an awesome guy. Spewin' he left Freo. Hope he has a great career with you guys.
