Unless we play finals then I cant see Grimes playing AFL before the end of the season.

I disagree.

If he's fit to play, he plays.

He'll have to go through the VFL this week, maybe next but I'll def play him rd22 against norf.

Players want to play. If he's fit, i don't see the point of cotton.

One step at a time.

Hurdle no.1 - Passing the Test.

Geez, I was sure beamer was going to play this week.

What is the difference with 3 weeks to go, between - The Season and indefinite?

I think when they know exactly what the problem is they can put a time on it, assume they are still trying to correctly diagnose Gys and Spence

I've heard that Gysberts has a bulging disc in his spine

What does that mean to his future career as an AFL footballer. How bad is a bulging disc in the spine?

It is excruciatingly painful. His/their (Spencer also has same problem) AFL career/s would not be jeopardised just managed in a different way.

cant see Grimes being risked by being rushed . A return to VFL and then a soid preseason prior to 2011 surely

IMO a week or two @ Casey then changeover with Bail who can play VFL finals this year. That would be poetic.

Agree. Melbourne are historically cautious with their players' injuries etc.

Grimes to play VFL Seniors this week.

[Casey play Northern Bullants who have Brock McLean back from injury playing for them]
