It's about a 7-hour road trip if airline travel was an issue PO. But I was more making the point that the time-out for one injury is likely to be quite a bit longer than the other.That would be more because stanley probably cant fly until he has the surgery..doubt it means anything recovery time.
Let's worry about Swans .My Concern isn't Ceglar playing, played good last year when he played, the Suns game was putrid... my Concern is if Ceglar can stay fit until Stanley comes back
I'm not worried... im rooting for him... check my post on the Cats v Swans pageLet's worry about Swans .
Owaat.
Big game as their ruck could return, as could Rampe and a McCartin
When is Neale be back playing?He would need to get fit first. Stay healthy yes, at least until moonboot Neale can get up and running. With Blicavs and Tomahawk taking some of the load Ceglar should be ok.
Draper can seriously play and could run Ceglar ragged on the G.We can get by without Stanley, our matchups to come are Ladhams(Rubbish),Draper(Improving but hardly a world beater),ROB(Plays as many s**t games as good) and then Richmond without a Ruckman.

The Tigers I'm less worried about and I think Ceglar can do a solid job in Geelong.
Draper is vastly overrated and phillips is basically a ceglar clone. If essendon get us it will be their run from midfield and defence that does not their rucks. I agree in geelong ceglar is ok and the tigers have not much in the ruck with nankervis and soldo out. Ceglar will get beaten by the top 3 or 4 comp rucks but should otherwise be ok.
Agreed… but hes still hurtIf Stanley is out FFS PLAY NEALE!!!!
I am going to assume you haven't watched much of either, especially the last two weeks. If Ceglar does what Phillips did against Melbourne we would be absolutely stoked, he was really good against Grundy, was marking and getting around the ground and at one point he was causing massive headaches marking all the bail out kicks on the wing or bringing to to ground to a clear Essendon advantage.
Meanwhile Draper has been really good the last few weeks, getting around the ground and hitting teams on the score board. He might be overrated but he has only had one poor game against the Suns this season. 2 decent games, and his last two games have been really good.
As long as Ceglar can break even thats a big win. But I have my doubts he can do that. Losing Stanley is going to hurt.
Is it worth just playing Blicavs as the main ruck, and bringing in someone like Knevitt as a kind-of-like-for-like tall midfielder role?
Disagree.Draper is vastly overrated and phillips is basically a ceglar clone. If essendon get us it will be their run from midfield and defence that does not their rucks.

'Can' was the operative wordNot really, depends on on the break.
This x infinity. For even one or two weeks, let alone for as long as we are likely to need him before Rhys returns.As long as Ceglar can break even thats a big win. But I have my doubts he can do that. Losing Stanley is going to hurt.
Not a hope Paddy will play again imoLet's worry about Swans .

That’s because he either marks it , spoils it or takes clean possessionYou know who hasn't laid a tackle all year yet SDK.
It's been operated on?! Bloody hell.'Can' was the operative word
PLEASE can we use McCartin in the Geelong injury thread. You scared me about Dangerfield.Not a hope Paddy will play again imo
It's kind of rare for full backs to accumulate many tackles. That tends to be the pocket or flanker's jobs.That’s because he either marks it , spoils it or takes clean possession
Played extremely well v the budgies , great return match by Sam
Ceglar only played 3 quarters in the seconds on Saturday. If he cannot run out a full game in the VFL how will he handle a full game in the AFL? Or was he injured?He would need to get fit first. Stay healthy yes, at least until moonboot Neale can get up and running. With Blicavs and Tomahawk taking some of the load Ceglar should be ok.
