Why? Any player that can make it back 100% should get the opportunity to play.Might as well say season for Murph as well.
They're trying to instill a mindset of perseverance. If he's 95+% fit, he plays IMO.One where we protect our most vital asset.
There is absolutely nothing to be gained by bringing Murphy in for the remaining games.
As long as he's still being a presence around the club, he's still doing his job.
And they can continue to do that without risking the skipper in meaningless games.They're trying to instill a mindset of perseverance. If he's 95+% fit, he plays IMO.
I'm sure the ankle is great from the PoV of the ligament, but he's got to get the circulation and surrounding muscular strength back up a bit, then he may return via the VFL to blow out the cobwebs.And they can continue to do that without risking the skipper in meaningless games.
I'm just guessing but I'd suggest he'd be close to 95% fit now.

My Ultimate Footy keeper team will also be torn a new one if he doesn't play.Hopefully Cripps gets out onto the ground on Sunday. Melbourne will tear us a new one if he doesn't play.
Kulcharidiculous bringing him back with nothing to play for
I see the argument for not playing Murphy but if he's fit he should probably play.
then gets injured and misses pre season. give someone else a go and save him for 2017. we need a fit and healthy murphy
If he's fit, he's fit though. Otherwise we might as well send every half decent player we have on holidays.ridiculous bringing him back with nothing to play for
