Sam's probably just not taking any risks - remember his broken leg last year. Didn't play one game of footy.

And Stefan can't even make the reserve grade. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG-term prospect. That's too long.

Sam played a 1/4 or so last week in the Casey res.

Jack Fitzpatrick is also not included on the injury list- he done a shoulder will miss another 3 weeks at least.

Those injury lists are notoriously inaccurate. They're a reasonable guide at getting a feel for when guys will be back, but unless they're obvious injuries (e.g. happen in an AFL match where everyone sees it) players tend to miss weeks before they appear on the list initially.

I'm guessing it's because sites like InjuryUpdate have to go chasing the clubs for the injury lists, and unless they know the questions to ask, they don't get the answers. I bet if someone writes in asking where Martin and Blease are, their names will appear on there next week (even if it just says "test").

You just got pwned.

I am convinced we will not be seeing Sam play this season.

I am convinced we will not be seeing Sam play this season.

that would be fine with me providing he is 100% before the pre season.

Stef and Sam were both at the Junction Oval this morning but neither trained with the Casey or Dees groups

Guys I was in the rooms after the game last week Stef has a hip injury he wasnt dropped and fitzy has a shoulder problem

I am convinced we will not be seeing Sam play this season.

If you saw the team at Casey last week I think you'd see that there aren't many spots going. I think we have to have a certain ratio of AFL or VFL aligned players in the side. So by my reckoning if Bleasy comes in then someone will go back down. So, I think there in no Rush to risk Sam whilst he's still feeling the soreness. That is not a bad strategy.

As we blood players in the Melbourne side, it would be No good to blood 15 kids through the year, only giving each say 3 games, next to useless. So IMO we need to select the core kids and put most games into those who are the current Leaders of this young group, and as circumstances arise, we can put games into the next to put their hands up for selection.

This is why to me, freeing up the right amount of list spots out of the mid to older players who will struggle to win games in the future is this year a paramount.

Blease can have as long as he needs. There's no rush. And just think how exciting he'll be as a "new recruit" next year. It's not too hard to be patient with a boy like Blease when there are so many others queuing up for senior spots.
