Touchwood it's been our best run with injury for years.

the missionary position isn't great for shoulders/pecs/upper body.

Yeah youd think their medicos would be onto that one and provide player Gibson with an alternate list of positions.

I'm bookmarking this post and will bump it about halfway through next season when Trengove is smashing it.

Since midway through 2011 he has been average at best if he was not captain during 2011 -2 he would have been dropped.

this year he was playing at Casey before his injury.

I am more than happy for you to remind me next year that he is playing well.

Who would drop from last week's team to fit him in?

Hypothetical counter to the fact. I wouldn't drop anyone from last week's team to fit in Trengove in a moon boot. Next year, different Trengove, different team.

This.

Trengove in his pre-injury form would be top 10 for mine.

Byrnes career over as well

Melbourne FC ✔ @melbournefc

Also further breaking news: Shannon Byrnes looks set to miss the rest of the season with a foot injury, sustained in the VFL on the weekend.

OK - MFC has announced Byrnes is out for the rest of the year with a foot injury.

Cross will be pizzed to miss the return doggies match....

Not half as pizzed as I am that he is out for up to 6......

Tough as nails....some serious body on line stuff in last two weeks.

The loss of Cross is gonna hurt us - he does a fantastic nullifying job.

Lost Cross and Jordie this week

Hopefully Griffen doesnt play for them cos we have no tagger now

So McKenzie (only this week) and Cross out for 4-6 weeks. Two of our taggers. Who to bring in to tag now?

Cross was having a great year ... top 5 in b & f huge blow !!!

Probably the end of Byrnes' career imo

Probably the end of Byrnes' career imo

agreed

Not sure he or club got out of each other what they would've liked

A chance for captain corageous to earn another 3 brownlow votes! You can do it Skip

Retirement for Byrnes for sure now.

This was one that did not work.

Neeld error number19.

Damn!!! Cross will be really missed whilst he sits in the grand stands

So McKenzie (only this week) and Cross out for 4-6 weeks. Two of our taggers. Who to bring in to tag now?

Jones tagged Marc Murphy in the blues match I think, maybe he'll be used in that capacity again this week.

we might not need to worry to much this week, Griffen and Cooney both likely to miss and Gia also out, Libba and Mcrae the two who we could tag, maybe Nathan Jones gets Libba, and Vince gets Mcrae, the young fella will be all to aware of what Vince will do to the doggies if they don't keep him in check

they will prob tag tyson again i'd say

I think this news may allow Ro Bail to step up and tag one of the Bulldogs' midfield.

Bring in Sam Blease now to run the lines.
