I know because they didnt consider it important to tell anyone whether or not after assessment the ankle was ok.

He was named an emergency for Friday night

And as per Krock, he's fine and available for selection - that's likely why there was no mention of it in the injury report as there's seemingly no injury

Good, must've just rolled his ankle then.
Surely his time is now to get extended run of games. We need to see what he's got, plus we actually need him now anyway, imho.
 
We dont know because the club is poor at giving injury info.
K rock Football said on the Cat Attack Podcast that Neale was not a bad injury and I could be taken off depression watch as well bc Scratcher will be ok and soom

GO Catters
 
No need for your analysis of my assessment of where we are at.
You agree we will probably drop the next 2 as well, but if anyone dares to say it...
"almost guarantee" is exactly what it implies- as sure as a thing can be in this strange game.
I don't yet believe our slump will be terminal, and who knows, we may yet start winning even in May.
I'd almost guarantee we'd win the next two , 3 even.

No need for you to analyse my analysis of your guaranteed projection either.

We are probably close to 50/50 chances of both games so anyone guaranteeing anything is a fool.

It's a coping mechanism, and that's more than fine.

Just don't portray it as fact or a guarantee on a public forum though, where you'd get banned for trolling if you were an opposition supporter doing the exact same thing.

Some of us would rather just enjoy football and worry about the wins and losses when they come.

It's just a game of footy. Very few of us need psychoanalysis prior to games to prepare for what we see as inevitable, and then breath a huge sigh of relief when the 'inevitable' rarely occurs.
 
Blicavs looks hampered to me. Whether it Father Time or something else, not sure.
If true, without the ‘Swiss Army knife’ we are in trouble, unless Conway can step up or Stanley somehow remembers to show up.

The problem was his acceleration and if he's lost a yard on what was never hugely fast acceleration it's hard to play midfield against the best.

I actually think Stanley being subbed so early was as much to do with how much Blicavs was struggling as a midfielder as how Stanley was going.
 
Heard a whisper that the Conway hip issue is more than the club are letting on... Could entirely be bullshit but the word surgery was mentioned


I'm hoping it's awful mail, given the clubs exemplary history with reporting injuries I'm sure it is.....

It was more bc we needed a lockdown option for jhf and without bowes we felt mullin was best for that (scott admitted as much). Stanley was playing badly so he was the logical one to take out.

If its something where hes going to miss months we would need to make a call now so we can create a list spot to bring in a ruck at the MSD deadline.
 
Geelong will be without Tom Hawkins (managed) and Jeremy Cameron (concussion) with the duo ruled out earlier this week for Thursday night’s clash against the Gold Coast Suns.

Cameron entered AFL concussion protocols on Saturday following the game against Port Adelaide, with Chris Scott confirming post game that Hawkins would be managed for the trip to Darwin.

After missing last week’s game against Port Adelaide with a shoulder injury, Tanner Bruhn will be a test to face the Suns.

Captain Patrick Dangerfield (hamstring), Oli Wiltshire (thumb) and Mitch Edwards (back) are all continuing to work through their respective recovery programs.

Geelong takes on Gold Coast this Thursday at TIO Stadium in Darwin, with first bounce at 7.40pm AEST. Watch via Channel 7, Foxtel and Kayo or listen via K rock Football.

The Cats next home game is on Saturday 25 May against GWS.

A test always worries me. I don’t have the facts but the feeling I have is that more often than not our guys don’t play when listed as “test”? I was really hoping to see “available” next to Tanner’s name.

Fingers crossed he does play as I think we will really need him and Bowes back into the team

Prostate especially.

Well no mention of Conway here so you’d expect him to play.

There were plenty of other ways to get blitz going than to sub out Stanley.

Given the optics and the embarrassment the subbing was going to have for Stanley, the only reason for doing it would be because Stanley was getting flogged. Scott would never do that to a player unless it was absolutely necessary, and unfortunately Stanley’s form meant that it was absolutely necessary.

Reports are he's up in Darwin - surely you're not flying your 200+cm tall ruck with a potential hip issue up to Darwin just for a fun week away...
 
Having seen again a few times tonight replays of Cameron falling to the ground, Esava shoves him in the back causing Cameron to crash into other players, but Esava is nowhere near marking the ball. Very reckless play.
