He's no good

I was pretty optimistic at the end of last year but the game vs Port he looked a mile off it

Yep.

 

[Dockeroo]

Reidy !!!!

Light years off the required level from what I’ve seen.

So did the majority of the team.

I'd rather play him and get more games into JJJ than Tabs.

Or as has been floated, pick Omac and play Cox forward.

 

[Dirty_banchez]

I'd rather play Banfield than Reidy or Taberner.

Looks like a classic TBA, but we aren't allowed to say that any more are we? So 2-8 weeks should cover it

Gotta love it aye.

2-8 weeks won’t piss off the same people equally as much as TBA at all would it?

IMO I wasn’t that frustrated at how injuries were being reported. It’s not an exact science. If you don’t know the answer in terms of estimated timeframe don’t pretend you do - TBA is fine if you have NFI on the return date.

Taberner at his best no.

Taberner at what he’s shown the last 1-2 years - Yes and it’s not even close.

Part of me wants to see the best Taberner back but back injuries really suck and it’s probably ruined both his athleticism and confidence to the point where he’s pretty much useless. That’s how it looks unfortunately anyway.

I find it more amusing that two posters that are known to have some pretty good sources both quote a different time frame and then the media has a scoop and both time frames get reported by different reporters.

Bigfooty strikes again.

I'm not sure the media uses big footy as a source

They most definitely do.

Anyway someone will be wrong.

Prefer it to be that grub Tom Morris.

I've seen the media steal training reports from posters on here. Nearly word for word. They change just enough not to be liable but there's no way that their article wasn't inspired by the original training report.

Come to think of it I do remember some west training reports last season and prior.

Tom Morris... Spare me

I'd trust his 'source' as much as I would Jon Ralph's.

 

[Superkoops]

Round 4 ticks both boxes with a technicality. Could argue that is exactly 6 weeks. Also can argue that the 4 weeks meant 4 games.

Not great news about Wagner. I’m guessing that is around 8 weeks and he has been hampered by the calf in the pre-season. Maybe they should send him to the Qatar guru as well. We’ll know he is in trouble when they roll out the Bennell scooter .

Can we just throw Banners in the ruck? ala Shaun Grigg at Richmond a few years back

There was a point a couple years ago where acres was our back up ruck

Depends on what they mean by 'moderate' Do they mean grade 2? Well then it probably is 8 weeks. Do they mean a grade 1 tending towards grade 2? 4 to 6 weeks.
Its irritating really as 'moderate' could mean anything between bad, but not severe, (I.E. not 12 weeks plus) and something you only miss one game on.

Today is typically the day we get an update, so hopefully we'll know more this afternoon.

Thought AFL have banned clubs from saying that this year?

if thats the case i hope we get the sneaky Bennell timeline treatment 5-6 weeks, 5 weeks, 4-5 weeks, 4 weeks, 3-4 weeks, 3 weeks.
