PJ to play...

Recommended Posts

News Flash for you Melbourne 777: PJ is out for the season champ. It was announced on Tuesday.

Last I heard, we were undecided as to whether PJ would play this week.

His surgery isn't until next week, and the injury is one that he can manage.

Although I read an article where Monaghan stated that PJ was done, I wouldn't be surprised if he played, given earlier comment from the Club.

"Paul Johnson will delay his season ending surgery for one extra week, and is set to line up this week against West Coast. Johnson was due to have hip surgery this week, but it was decided he should temporarily put that on hold, after it was clear that Jeff White would be forced to miss."

In: Mark Jamar, Brad Miller, Michael Newton, Daniel Bell.

Out: Lynden Dunn (ill), Chris Johnson (Inj-groin) , Jeff White (Inj – knee), Nathan Carroll (omitted)

Well that's just it hightower he is playing...they have brought him back in to play.

That is unusual, the article regarding Davey and Johnson is still current on the website, saying neither will play again in 2008.....Hmm <_<

Jeff White forced to miss? Knee? Anyone see this last Friday night?

Spencer? Meesen?

My understanding is that there's a cutoff point during the year for promoting rookies, so Spencer's out, and Meesen... well, less said the better at this point.

I guess the answer is Jamar rucks on his own.

Hmm. I don't like the sound of Jamar rucking on his own. Maybe Holland to get a recall for the sole purpose of being the 2nd ruckman?

Sorry High Tower you were saying....

I think now it's newsflash to you PJ IS PLAYING.

You've made your point, don't be a prat.

High Tower, stop responding to everything and contributing nothing of substance. Your profile says you're 34 years old. Get a job.

Lets hope PJ gets up this week. About the only bloke able to deliver the ball into the forward line with any aplomb and consistency. Which is damning (on everyone else) given he's 6'massive" and a backup ruckman.

If we win this by a comfortable margin, then manage to somehow beat Port Adelaide and the Hawks then smash the Eagles, who then go on to get belted by the Cats down at the Cattery, we could see the Dees against Richmond trying to lose by at least a set margin (i.e. must lose by at least 20 odd points)

That really would be an odd round 22! Though i can't see us beating Port

I was offended by remark hightower, considering I was in fact right...

Apologies for OFFENDING you Melb_777. You were right in hindsight, there simply was a change in plans by the club. The named side contradicted the previous report that PJ's season was over.

Don't take it to heart.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full
