With no new injury concerns coming out of last weekend’s draw at Burnley, it is the progress of those already in the treatment room that provides the basis of our latest injury update.
We caught up with the Tigers’ Head of Medical Services, Rob Price, to get the latest news….
Allan McGregor
Allan is now seven-and-a-half weeks post-surgery on his back injury and is continuing with his neural pathway work to try and increase his range. He is improving week by week, but this one is going to take time. We said that it would probably be December before he was anywhere near and that still looks likely to be the case.
Moses Odubajo
Moses is progressing really well seven weeks on from his patella dislocation and he is fully weight-bearing now. His range of movement is now only about ten degrees down compared to his other side and as soon as he regains that extra ten degrees he’ll be able to start on the AlgerG and start his running re-education, and we hope that will be by the end of this week.
Alex Bruce (pictured)
Alex is also now fully weight-bearing following his achilles tendon reconstruction. He started some swimming pool rehab last week and some running mechanics within that, but we have to be cautious not to push this too quickly.
Michael Dawson
Michael is progressing nicely and had a great week outside last week. As always with medial ligament injuries, the last thing that comes back is the ability to hit a side-foot pass and hit a long ball and we expect that to come back in the next two or three weeks. Realistically, we’re looking at after the next international break for him being available to be part of the squad.
Brian Lenihan
Brian is continuing his outdoor rehab and we want to make sure we give him the best chance of progressing from this knee injury. We’re increasing his load slowly to give him the best chance of doing that.
Greg Luer
Greg is a couple of weeks on from surgery on his knee. He started fully weight-bearing on Monday and is working on his strength in the gym, but it’s a 12 to 16-week injury.
