Gilbert Injury - Any news?

Post: # 788027Post Sam23 »

Can't find anything about him.

Searched through a few threads and everyone seems to be selecting him in their 'changes'

But I've heard nothing said about him by the coaches or in articles.

What actually happened to him? I heard lower back but not entirely sure.

at his press conference ross mentioned zac and gardiner as being available but not gilbert.

i'd say another week at least.

some are saying he copped a knee in the back against the bulldogs, which was news to me.

Ruckman Michael Gardiner and defender Sam Gilbert are likely to return from injuries this week while full-back Zac Dawson has completed a suspension. All three have played major parts in the best winning run in club history.

Yeh I saw that article but didn't see any direct quotes from the club in relation to Gilbert and am assuming its just guess work.

I was sure I read something earlier this evening about when it was noted,- the soreness- but either I was dreaming or the article has been changed as it hit the internet and the evening wore on.

good luck with your invesitgations sam.

ST KILDA’S match committee has another pleasurable yet unenviable task this week as it tries to shoehorn players into a team on an 18-game winning streak for the clash with Hawthorn.

Ruckman Michael Gardiner and defender Sam Gilbert are likely to return from injuries this week while full-back Zac Dawson has completed a suspension. All three have played major parts in the best winning run in club history.

Gardiner has missed three weeks with a calf strain and will be assessed today and Thursday at training. He was left out of the game against Sydney last weekend although he was keen to play. ‘‘If he’d been right, we would have picked him,’’ said Saints’ football director Greg Hutchison. ‘‘We’ll assess him this week.’’

Fellow-ruckman Steven King, who dislocated his right shoulder during the Sydney game, is being monitored but has a good chance of playing. The premiership ruckman was strapped up after the incident and came back on the ground. ‘‘He might be OK, we’re not quite sure,’’ said Hutchison.

Gilbert, a contender for All-Australian selection as a half-back, missed the Sydney match with a back injury.

Dawson performed so well up until a fortnight ago that he must be picked, putting pressure upon the incumbent full-back, veteran Max Hudghton, who struggled against the Swans.

The presence of Hawthorn’s twin forward threats, Lance Franklin and Jarryd Roughhead, will help their cause in terms of selection.

Luke Ball, who has spent the past few weeks in the VFL, was feared to have fractured his sternum while playing for Sandringham, but tests showed it was not as serious as first thought. ‘‘He’s got bruising to the chest but he should be OK for this week,’’ said Hutchison.


Another opportunity awaits!
