That could possibly be a sad end for Walters. What happened to Chappy? We really miss him!

With his injury history? No thanks play it safe

 

[Footskill]

Seemed like Pearce hobbled off the field towards the end , was that the case?

 

[FreoRicci]

He's not playing this week, first game next week

Well he’s under pressure to make it back now.

Just play it safe and get Hughes in as he’s the ‘safe’ option for Chapman anyway.

[Firesharter]

Hugh Davis is not though, apparently

it'snot mentioned in the injuries on afl.com either

I'm trying to ignore it and pretend it didn't happen, same as Young going off

so I wasn't imagining things.. seems with a minute or so to go he went up for mark then was like hopping off field asap

 

[s_wd6]

Damn I didn't see it. If he's out does Cox come straight back in or do we have a backline of Davies and Draper...

after.

Wasn't mentioned and he didn't look down so maybe false alarm..lol phew

Did look bad though, hopping off one leg like that.

 

[Taylor]

Maybe just a roll of the ankle

 

[Shoeless Joe]

Wish they still played him

I hope they give him next week off...with his history let's be super courteous

will be heartbreaking if he has another long set back

This could be the end of the road for Son Son

Yeah, because we want to play a quicker brand of footy so lets bring in the one bloke that is so ****ing slow to make a decision that our play will slow to a walk.

 

[Dockeroo]

I’d honestly rather line out with 21 players than bring in Ethan Hughes again

Chapman hasn’t exactly set the world on fire nor is fast.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Chapman hasn’t exactly set the world on fire nor is fast.

Chapman had been fantastic, what?

 

[gaskin]

Chapman hasn’t exactly set the world on fire nor is fast.

It has nothing to do with speed. It is the ability to get the ball and distribute it in a timely manner while making the correct decision. Hughes cannot do that at AFL level.

 

[hoss]

Hughes is shit

Wow, that's a bit rough. Not cooked, not out of form, not that others have gone past him, but shit. Pretty loyal player who played over 100 AFL games. Pretty easy taking potshots from your lounge chair.

Still can't footy.
Not sure if he has had 1 standout game. in a hundred.
Every time he gets the ball he puts the brakes on and dithers
