Last post by: Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 What is the latest on Dunne, McGinley & Carroll? I Think Carroll was intially expected to be out for 5 months after having surgery. McGinley was much less maybe 4 weeks. No idea about Dunne, maybe closer to Christmas? Anyone got any idea? I think having Carroll back fit would give a good balance to the team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu92 Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 I don't even know what Dunne's injury is, when did it happen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu92 Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 Jeez, there's quite a difference between 4 months and a year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MelvinBragg Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 Dunne came back and played one reserve game, maybe even just 45 minutes last season. Clearly the injury recurred. We do really need at least one of our left back options back sooner rather than later... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 I think it was originally reported that McGinley was out for between 4 and 6 weeks (with a groin problem?). So that basis he should be available again from mid September onwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Robinson saying in one of his pre-match press conference type things (can't find the video anywhere) that either McGinley or Carroll would be back after the international break, with the other round about October time. McGinley being out for 4-6 weeks would tie in roughly with the international break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0Neils40yarder Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 I dont think it can be underestimated, how important it is to have actual full backs on the park...I'm positive we'll see improvement when Carroll or McGinley are playing on the left Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Against most teams we could have Carroll up the left and O'Donnell up the right . Polworth creating through he middle Long/Lang/Watt up front Happy days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes this is what SR did say but he has been very quiet which indicates to me he is still not ready and with no reserve league this season, I would imagine he would need to organise a friendly to get some match practice for him unless he is happy enough to throw him straight into the first team?

Sometimes as a club we are over benevolent to players who are injured and contracts run out, it's not as though when Dunne signed originally he was an injury free player, just think money could be spent on another fit player, rather than wasting wages on a player who when is supposedly fit will no doubt get crocked again. Fine when there under contract, but these look after you deals just don't sit with me, that's for insurance to kick in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
middleeastdave Posted September 2, 2020 Report Share Posted September 2, 2020 I see Hearts managed to beat St Mirren in a friendly today, has anyone any idea if we have any friendlies fixed with lower SPFL sides as they are in pre season and would make sense to see some of our younger players or possibly players coming back from injuries getting a game?

middleeastdave Posted September 11, 2020 Report Share Posted September 11, 2020 Robinson announces that Donnelly will not be available until 2021 Carrol and Dunne progressing whatever that means!! McGinley available for selection on Saturday scott Fox to get operation but will be out for the season so who will be the next player to be out long term?

Thunderlips Posted October 12, 2020 Report Share Posted October 12, 2020 Yeah, Dunne's not played for well over a year now. Can't see him returning to the starting line-up any time soon, maybe not ever again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
