[pringle 42]

BL 3281 is with me now and says he can't play. Appaerently his 100kg frame is just not up to it anymore.

I emailed Dooky a few days ago, but he is away at the moment and hasn't returned my message. Hopefully I'll find out soon. As for myself, I'm still in, but battling against time with a hamstring injury which I sustained about 4 weeks ago. It just hasn't come good yet, but I still have 2 weeks from today, so fingers crossed. I'll be at the game regardless.

[rollinson 65 181]

many thanks for that offer, pringle...

hope the hamstring comes up, but on or off the field, you will be good value...

[rollinson 65 181]

we are short 2 players IMO...

30 was the number of committed players we had last time against this mob, and we scraped in for a win by the skin of our teeth...

and hoping that cribbes responds to my emails, because we are desperately in need of a ruckman...

doggo, benno and madness have filled in (in past games) but these guys are better suited to other roles...

come in cribbes, robbo24 and any other past players or new players...

we need you...

[biggestred 5,125]

i can ruck around the ground because i can get body on

but im completely useless at centre bounces

[Demon Head 292]

injury list...rivvo(from demonology) - the knee (waiting on MRI to confirm the dreaded ACL)...

It's taking a bloody long time to have an MRI. My mate's gf injured her knee at the netball last week and she's having an MRI tomorrow!

[rollinson 65 181]

"It's taking a bloody long time to have an MRI..."

if I have understood rivvo's emails correctly, the doctors started with consevative management, and the MRI is scheduled for January 29...

rivvo is going to try to make the game on february 8 as a spectator, so we should find out more then...

[DeeM 42]

scotts mate Luke is in but sean is only a maybe

[rollinson 65 181]

cameron the bruce is an apology, but that's good news about luke, and I hope that sean can make it because he will be tested this game...

talkingcarlton's numbers are starting to match ours now... <_<

[Whispering_Jack 30,573]

I saw Pringle today at a family function and he's touch and go to make the game. So the injury list is as follows:-

Pringle (Hamstring) 1 - 2 weeks

Rivvo (Knee) 4 - 6 weeks

Please feel free to add to this list ...

[Doggo 32]

I don't mind playing in the ruck again, i think i've done a decent job in the centre square in the past, but ideally it would be nice to have a strong (tall!) ruckman take the majority of the ruck and myself play a smaller support role. This match is gonna be a very tight and fierce contest (well, for forum games anyway) and we'll definitely need to win the midfield battle and be switched on all day. They'll be hungry to beat us after last time.

Cribbes is a very accomplished player and very tall ruckman, come in mate!!

[rollinson 65 181]

well, WJ, 4-6 weeks may be a bit optimistic about rivvo, but we will find out more by game time...

the forum footy organiser on talkingcarlton, barnsey, is a top bloke and obviously a talented and energetic organiser...

he wants a clarification, and I am happy to post it here...

the ex-AFL player (who played for carlton and may play for talkingcarlton) is a mate of a poster on their site...

they have not gone out actively recruiting to gain an unfair advantage...

[biggestred 5,125]

that seems fine with me.

doggo, id be happy to do most of the around the grounds stuff, im just completely useless at the centre bounce - although i guess id have a go if i had to

sure we can work something out

[rollinson 65 181]

we were waiting for the news, and here it is...

cribbes is unavailable...

and deanox as well (no wobbly torpedo goals or other under 9's skills on display this game)...

[pringle 42]

I'm looking VERY doubtful to play. Although it was 4 weeks ago that I did the hammy, the healing process hasn't gone to plan. I may have tried to overdo the rehab. These things happen when you get a bit older I guess, although at 29 I'm hardly over the hill. Went to the physio today and going for an ultrasound tomorrow to assess the damage. Hopefully it's not worst case scenario and a few more days of rest will see me through. I'm still optimistic and hoping that, unlike '426', I don't earn the name '122'

[rollinson 65 181]

good luck, 426...

(I mean pringle )...

at 29, mate, you should be leaving it to us younger blokes...
