Rohan Bail (quad) - test

Jack Fitzpatrick (shoulder) - 4 weeks

Max Gawn (knee) - indefinite

Liam Jurrah (shoulder) - 7 weeks

John Meesen (ankle) - indefinite

Ricky Petterd (shoulder) - indefinite

Luke Tapscott (hip) - 8 weeks

Fitzy done his shoulder - too bad!

Meesen is now indefinite. I thought he was 4-6 weeks away.

Tapscott 8 weeks is certainly better than indefinite

Shattered Fitzpatrick is out for 4 weeks. Was on the verge of getting a game with Casey seniors.

Good to see Jurrah looking like he may return around Round 15 (vs Essendon)

No Cale, which is quite pleasing.

How far is Ricky away do we think? it would be great to see him and Liam in the same forward setup

No Cale, which is quite pleasing.

Cale played for Casey at the weekend.

Methinks Meesen is stuffed!!!! Its a shame because he had found some really good form right before he was injured. Of all the ruck options on our list, I would love to see him in the side alongside The Russian. Wish him well getting back, but things don't look promising,

Meesen spoke to the Redleg supporter group which i am a member of at half time last Friday night, has re injured his ankle and does not seem good.

Am I correct in saying that we need another LTI for Mckenzie to be promoted?

No.

Jurrah, Tapscott & Gawn are still out and we can upgrade a rookie "for free" at the halfway mark of the season (in 3 weeks).

Spencer or Newton may not be able to play as players get fit, but McKenzie would be the last to be dropped back.

Tapscott 8 weeks is certainly better than indefinite

I've been hanging out for this for ages. With the others, we tend to have the information ahead of time for top players. Tapscott is a kid I thought would have a real say this year.

Probably not fair to expect too much. 8 weeks from now it'll be round 14 (with the break), but he will likely need time to get fit, and some form at Casey reserves and seniors.

Still. Live in hope, and get on him for the 2011 rising star.

:D

Not seeing Blease on this list is a relief, lets hope the soreness wasnt too bad on the wekeend.

I think you are forgetting that Hughes is now also available for senior team selection. Probably for Petterd going on to LTI. Doesn't change the situation re McKenzie, however.
