| Forgotten Cat Rookie Cam Delaney Set For Great Comeback |
Forgotten Geelong rookie is set for a comeback after over a year when he plays his first game for the cats VFL side at the Simonds stadium on Saturday. Geelong rookie cam Delaney played only six games during his four season spree with North Melbourne, but was only able to play in two VFL games back in 2014 after developed toe and foot problems since when he was playing senior football back in 2013. The kangaroos were ready to take him as a rookie, but cam seized the chance to become a Grovedale product one place ahead of Melbourne, at selection no.29.
Mark young, Geelong physiotherapist told catsTV that they had set the bar too high for Delaney, giving him the best opportunity for success when he comes back. Young said “he has had to complete a full month of training with several weeks of running. He further continued to say
“it was important he was confident with his body, but he is all set to make his debut for the cats this weekend.”
The cats have welcomed back Josh Cowan, Nathan Vardy and Daniel Menzel to the VFL after spending a considerable amount of time on the bench with long-term injuries in the past month. Cam Delaney has been sidelined much this year, but with his comeback things could get better for the cats. With his injury battle over, Cameron Delaney will make his first appearance this year when the cats set to play this weekend.
Currently, Geelong has a short list of injured players, a great contrast compared to the mid-season when they were struggling for stable players. The physiotherapist told catTV that the club was confident Delaney would perform exceptionally on Saturday when they play against the box hill hawks. Young said “we are as confident as we can be; there is always an element of the unknown when you are playing a game for the first time, but we have exposed him to a decent block of training and we are confident he will go well on the weekend.
