Eagles site has it at "about six weeks". Bennell to the backline and Jetta or Masto in I guess?
Well, thats a bit of a sh*t. Makes the decision easy for who goes out for Jetta though.
IMO Ellis is depth now. When Sharrod comes back and provided Nelson continues along as expected he wont be getting his spot back in a hurry.
All of these injuries to defenders is making me a bit hot under the collar though...

Ellis cant really be relied on with his injury history. Think this is the tipping point for him where he becomes a depth player.

Roughead seems ok.(Apart from the knee).Achilles? That is writing on the wall type of injury for old men
Looking on the bright side, I reckon Ellis has just come out of one of the healthiest patches in his career over the past 12 months. He's obviously learning to manage his body better these last couple of years. I don't see him retiring or being forced out at the end of the year provided he can string together another 5 or 6 games this year.

Nope to that. bennell lacks composure and makes horrible decisions even with minimal heat. Not to mention that he fumbles the footy. We should have jetta in defence and nelson playing am more lockdown role.

For the last 4 weeks in a row they have stated that wellingham has turned a corner but his return time either gets longer or doesnt change at all. Im gonna take it that the phrase "turned a corner" isn't positive at all.

If he has turned a corner 4 weeks in a row then he is now back where he started.
Hopefully he can head straight down the road to recovery from now on.

It's really been the curse of the fringe (18-25) player:
- Brown
- Hutch
- Masten
- Ellis
- Sheed
Wellers and Jetta aren't really in that category but not too far off.

Well **** me. Hes best 18 if we are going to be picky about it and Masten too. Pretty sure the coaches don't pick 18 then randomly pick the dregs after that. They pick the best 22 players for the team they are up against and if you are in that 22 consistently then you aren't fringe.
