We can dream, can't we?

Yep, we've got to get it right eventually.

I am getting some bad karma about all this. Fingers crossed I suppose but I am mindful of the worst case scenarios that we always seem to have to deal with at this club.

Pavlov could have a field day with MFC supporters and conditioned responses ;-)

Why are you surprised he may not be 'happy'? He wants to get out and play football, he sees his cohorts playing every week, and all he can probably feel is debilitating back pain and limited movement.

Back pain is notorious to fix. On top of that there may be some social stigma that it's not 'real', even though it can be one of the mpost severe pains you can experience (maybe short of kidney or gall stones).

I damaged my back with a pulled muscle last year doing something as simple bending over to do up a shoe lace. It took six weeks (aided by Dr Voltaren) just to get over that. The pain was excruciating, every move hurt, and I was just trying to walk and sit without agony, let alone run or play football.

Could be why you were touted as a top 10 pick but slipped down to pick 124

Didnt they merge with the thriving metropolis Ouyen?

Not sure what would make GWS want to give away a former number 1 pick in Patton, one they have put 3 years into developing.

Unless he suffers another serious injury, in which case - why would we want to go near him?

To have the best forward line on paper?

That's why I asked about Patton's contractual status. GWS won't trade him. We'd need to lure Patton back to Melbourne with money and 'a return home', but only once his contract is up.

Originally with Tempy and Gorya to become Tempy-Goyra-Patchewollock (try chanting that), or 'TGP' for short, then became Ouyen United a few years ago after TGP merged with Ouyen Rovers.

Don't even think about rushing a back injury to quickly.

Let him heal slow.

Frustrating Yep...But the only way.

Every bit of work the body does is connected through the back.

Now no one has any idea. Write this season off get him right for 2015 pre season. Why do these serious injuries happen to our potential great players. Why cant it happen to our lesser skilled players.

Are Manangatang 3rds an option?

What about Boort 2nds?

Wait a minute. No one ever professed to know.

It was always a wait-and-see type injury.

“Jack will be in a boot for the better part of the next two months, so the surgery went well and we expect Jack to have a good pre-season and he’ll be back bigger and better than ever.”

Good. Now we know.

If it happened to our "lesser skilled" players we would struggle to field a team!

The Wycheproof Demons?

Patchewollock ???? Pride of the northwest ! Close to Speed and Tempy not to mention Walpeup.

This is smelling more and more like Mitch Clark all over again

Bartram, Clark, Jurrah all had premature ends to career. Now things not looking good for Hogan and Trengove. FmL
