Tragedy - A disastrous event, especially one involving distressing loss or injury to life.

Simon Phillips injury was unfortunate, but hardly a tragedy. Being slighty over the top there redandblack.


Thank you, OnSong, you're right.

I understood what I said and meant it, TSG.

Good to see you're still keeping a close interest in everything I say ;)


sorry mate your right

football injuries are tragedies there right up there with kids getting cancer, people dying from natural disasters, starvation in Africa and world poverty ;)


You really should take a course in logical thought progression, whufc.

To answer your statement, yes, football injuries can absolutely be tragic and we've had enough tragedies on the football field for it not to be dismissed lightly.

I accept you mean wish Simon Phillips a speedy recovery, but you should leave it at that.

You're not helping your case.

Besides Neil Sachse, name some of the many other tragedies that have occurred on the football field.

Seriously though, that West Adelaide kid that died on the field, think it was in 2002.

That's right, Brucetiki, that was Jake Watson, a terrific lad.

He will always have a special place in the hearts of all of us at Westies.

Greg Edwards injury against glenelg might be considered a tragedy.

Loosing most the vision in one eye from memory.
