They make it so easy, my friend.  The same ones roll up every time.

Yeah I know.

But I can set my watch by you however.

At the 3rd stroke, Wiseblood will complain about negativity. beep, beep, beep

Unless he at least gets a run in the final Casey practice match (week before our first game) then he shouldn't play.

No more of this straight back in stuff without any match practice.

If we are going to be a serious threat for finals, we should have a list capable of beating Geelong without Viney.

Very misleading screengrab- he was on crutches last year and they’ve reused the footage.  95% of that interview had him walking and standing in his footy boots.

Ok, busted. 

I didn’t watch the clip ?

Back in training in a month.

Probably needs another month after that to play an AFL game.

Looks like round 2-4 to me. That's ok. Get him right for the full season.

Main group training is pretty different to just training in general. He's been doing running and ball work, just not contested contact work. He won't need a full month of main group training

I didn't know that was going to be the thumbnail used when I posted that otherwise I would have put a caveat it.

Will be very surprised if he lines up round 1, gives someone like Maynard a crack I guess 

Ducker will be breathing a sigh of relief.

'Lad', he's going to need at least that much main group training plus match practice.

He will need match conditioning & you don't get that doing circle work & gym.

hasn't he been 3-4 weeks off joining general training for a long time now?

i'm not believing anything yet, because i don't think they know

Remember the Bombers of 99 without Hird. Good sides don't worry about who they haven't got they just worry about who they have got.

Time for others to step up. Jack will be back when he's ready and believe it or not we will be the better for it long term

I see your point, but I’d rather be the bombers of 2000 with Hird.

Time we had a post camp injury update from Misso, with some direct questioning from Burgs.  Did Jack suffer a setback at the camp?  What is the realistic timeframe for his return?

You have my vote and if we cannot win without him we can can forget finals. However we will win.
