It’s so St Kilda for posters on here to freak out over pre-season injuries… shit happens? We’re not winning the flag this year, so if Howard misses the first month or Mattaes needs some time on the sidelines it’s not Armageddon.. it provides opportunities to others to step up. Playing the victim or “woe is us” mentality has killed this club for so long.
I dunno man, I feel like the "We're not winning the flag this year" attitude, before a ball is bounced, is the mentality which has killed this club for so long. Wonder how that attitude flies at Geelong.
 
9 weeks to R1 and the panic has set in. FMD

No one's panicking - but should everyone be rejoicing we have a lost another key player to injury in PRE SEASON.

I think supporters are still allowed to feel and express their disappointment a player has been injured, no matter what time of the year. Howard might be able to play with the injury, but no matter how they approach it he is going to be restricted.

I wish I was but I was at a cafe In Sandringham and he had crutches next to his table
We're lucky he missed training then, I hear it was a disaster!
 
God you have to love Kane Cornes. Turned on the radio and hear him saying we are a watch for bottom 4. Footy season is back
The more down on us they are, the better we tend to do. If they start pumping us up, thats when you know we will disappoint and finish bottom 4.

We're not seeing Pou in the ones before sometime in May.

And Marshall isn't playing Round 1. So everyone who wanted to see what we look like with a different ruckman will get to see it.

And who knows with Howard. Considering his contract status (now likely to be a year to year proposition), he's going to be unwilling IMO to get the reconstruction now, which makes him a heart in mouth watch whenever he plays.

Row Marshall, pelvis sounds like the old style OP to me but he’d be right for round one as will Henry & Hunter in all likelihood.
Our midfield held up well in the back half of last season so back them to do it again until phillipou gets back. Gives Hugo, Toby, Hall a chance to find their groove.
