I actually got the feeling someone thought they were being clever and funny with the use of Kevin Sheedy's initials.

I may be wrong, but even the use of capitals, as it was written "Knee Soreness".

We'll surely know by Friday.

Dane Swan is out with 'Korked Shoulder'

Age have reported he might miss...also that Morton could be out for 2 months

haha or a Kidney Stone

Heard it was Knuckle Strain ...

IF he has "knee soreness" it is probably best he does not play.

It is only 11th Feb. on Friday, a long way from September!

As well it gives another spot for someone else to show their wares.

WE know Tom can cut it at senior level.

How come we are so poor /unlucky with injuries and the Pies so lucky/ good?

Last years they got to the finals with one long term injury and we had double figures.

After a pre Christmas with a full list we now have 4 long term injuries to good players.

I do not get it.

This depresses me more than Scully leaving!

Frawley was/is the only long-term one with an initial 12-week ommission from footy.

Newton and Morton both 6-8 weeks.

Having said this though, it is FAR better the injuries occur now rather than during the season proper!! Morton (and Newton) will miss a MAXIMUM 2 weeks of the 2011 season. Petterd should be fine after tweaking his hamstring in the intra-club game - plenty of time to have recovered.

I'm concerned about Frawley though... and Campbell is a concern also.

Fitzpatrick may take a while to recover.

The property market in West Sydney is judged on how many seats the car has.

I don't think Scully will strip Friday night- he is to good to risk.

I'll be in Sydney this weekend

Sydney or West Sydney? Bit of a difference...

Not playing (didn't travel).

Could be knee soreness indeed, but wonder if they just wanted to fly under the radar with him till things quieten down. Interview with Trengove today in the HUN, and first question was "will Scully stay".

Let's hope there are a few big stories come out of the games this weekend so we can move on from the Scully "news".

I'd feel more comfortable if he were there with the rest of the team even if injured. Will send a positive message.

I hate to split hairs Deezman but 8 weeks is a long term injury in my view.

Ok he may be available early in the season but if you miss 8 weeks of practice matches and early season games it will take 2 - 4 weeks to get back to where you should have been at the start of the season.

What is wrong with Fitzpatrick?
