afl website reporting that Markworth has had minor surgery on his knee

Another pick 35 headed for obscurity ?
In red white and black from 73
Re: Minor setback for Markworth
So he's probably already had surgery a week ago - the players are going to be off for Christmas. This will affect him for like 3 days?

He needs a bit of luck so that he can get his AFL career up and running.
The list changes for 2025 have begun, always an interesting time for an avid supporter.

Re: Minor setback for Markworth
find a bit odd that even the papers are talking him up a fair bit after a good showing for a first year in the VFL and then a year off... (saints best 22 article in the HUN)
really hope all this faith is rewarded with the new Nat Fyfe !

Re: Minor setback for Markworth
He will spend a fair while in the VFL before he gets a shot.... But should get a crack mid year or a bit after

Re: Minor setback for Markworth
Well, nothing has been decided yet on when he'll play... So the mid season guess is just that - a guess...
A new coach means everyone starts from scratch... Watters was a big rap for Daniel and was looking to give him a crack on a wing.... Sounds like Richo has him more as high leading forward.
The knee injury is unfortunate, but not very serious, a jarring of scar tissue which they have gone in and cleaned up... he'll be back to full training soon enough.
IMO![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

Admitting it is the first sign of recovery.
Re: Minor setback for Markworth
I am sure BM doesn't want my support however I think what he wrote was reasonable.
I didn't see anything dresses up as inside knowledge, rather just pretty obvious suppositions.
Markworth has had limited time at VFL level, is coming back from a major year long injury, and needs time to get going again.
I actually think mid season may be too early, but who kows what the coach thinks and what Markworths form will be.
I have seen very little of Markworth but what i have read is that he has some real potential. Also read he was working with Trevor Hendy (wasn't it) during the winter, so he may be over the confindence thing that comes with these type of injuries.
Mid season, late season, early season? Nobody really knows. Could kill it in be in by round five, could take time and we may not see him until 2015.

Re: Minor setback for Markworth
Getting back to Markworth.......
I think this is the last year of his contract (?)
I'm looking forward to seeing him in the pre season games. Hopefully he has a good year, but he may start to feel the pressure if he can't find form or has another bad run with injury.
Has anyone seen him train lately - does he still have pace/agility?

Re: Minor setback for Markworth
Form Markworths twitter a few days ago
"Unfortunate news about the knee Dan, hopefully you are back fit and firing soon. #gosaints"
"Daniel Markworth @Danielmarkworth 19 Dec
@Dylan_2112 cheers mate, I will be back in no time"
Sounds pretty positive.

Secondly, it's a reflection of where our list is at - Delaney was also in that team. Why? Couldn't break into a fairly brittle Kangaroos back six. It's just where we're at.
Markworthy shows a lot of promise, mind you. Hopefully his fitness allows him to show that in the seniors.
