Prestia !!

[Scoop]

He did 3/4 run throughs at half time and looked fine. Arms moving freely. Reckon we we’re justifiably nervous and pulled him out right away. I think he plays round 1.

When I started reading your post I was going to write did that look like a pec strain to you but then I read this line and realised we agree, although I'm not convinced it is even a pec.

When he was running lengths at half time he was holding it very much like a shoulder issue.

Not convinced on Pec Large Son of Bull but the mechanism was that wrenching extension back on the arm but also same mechanism for a shoulder involvement and he did grab higher also as opposed to the chest.

I only saw a quick play of it. and, his instant reaction at the moment is what grabbed my attention.

Obviously will be investigated and we will find out fingers crossed its nothing to get too excited about.

Minor Pectoral strain they saying !

We'll see about that. I guess.

I cant help but have some doubt about Dions fitness for the season opener at this stage especially after seeing that instant grimace and his instantaneous grab for his shoulder and that forlorn look on his face that we've seen now way too many times in the past few seasons.

I reckon he's gone. Too many injuries now.

You aren’t making a bloke do 150m sprints if he is in any doubt to play Round 1. Plus Prestia wanted to come back on but the medicos took the cautious approach.

Nah his legs are great . Round 3

Not even related to any of his other issues. This was an impact injury, nothing to do with soft tissue like he has had over the last few years.

 

[dimmauchamp]

Injury prone or not he is still our most valuable midfielder

Certainly could be running like that with a tear in the muscle. He would have iced it and had a bit of pain relief if he needed it, but he was definitely still favouring the arm while he was running.

Tomorrow or Monday will be the real test when he has a scan. If the theory he has some sort of a pec tear is right, then it's very likely he will need surgery to repair it.

Any running movement would cause discomfort. If it’s a tear or any serious injury why would the medicos put him under that intensity?

Looked like a shoulder to me. The pec news sounds like BS to avoid any future targeting

 

[The Mole]

Looked like a minor sub lux of the shoulder. Half popped out and straight back in. Minimum discomfort and no lasting injury.

Sounds like you have some experience here. At Punt Road? Are you Laff? ‍

Have had experience. Done the same thing a couple of times myself. Not playing footy though.

 

[Leysy Days]

At least PRE have narrowed it down to a Pec, Shoulder or Sub Lux.

Stay tuned and we'll report the diagnoses shortly.

Hmm..

 

[mad_tiggy911]

Don’t really care about Short but Prestia would be a massive out.

 

[Tigers of Old]

Great relief he's playing I think it evens things up heading into Thursday night.

 

[Smoking Aces]

Good to see him get through the game.
