I understand the frustrations, but we need a little patience.
The practice match was specifically a VFL practice match. The only AFL listed players to go around were those who needed conditioning and/or touch. Clearly we allowed the VFL boys the chance to get some synergy rather than spend their season as fill ins.
Lemmey, Binns and others are LONG TERM prospects and there is no rush.
Clearly Durds isn’t ready, I suspect there will be a re conditioning block for a bloke who has missed a month or more and plays a high pressure role.
Boyd and Cotters will do well to play pre bye given the nature of their injuries - patience.
Kempy? Who the * knows. Could be conditioning or an undisclosed injury.
Walshy pushing hard, but will not make round one if has not been in full contact drills. Need him for 20 odd games once he returns, get him right and ready. Fogarty, I have been told is behind Walshy in the rehab stakes.
Marchbank has had another soft tissue glitch and is running out of mulligans. Love the bloke, but must spend considerable quality time on the park. Expecting to see him soon, but … yeah.
Cuningham, suck it and see. Time frame anyone’s guess. Couple of weeks or maybe never?
