Yup.  Toes can be very tricky to get right and strangely debilitating when injured.  Frost and Sandilands have both missed seasons with toe injuries and Bernie last year was a shadow of himself whilst playing with an injured toe.  

Take the time.  Get it right.

Yup

We don't NEED TMc right now, with our backups. 

 

But We do NEED TMc late in the season, fully fit; heading towards September, Springtime footy. 

Its a must, we need his marking power & his running power, to cover the miles.

 

I don't care if he misses the next 6 weeks, as long as we get him right and in Full running fitness, come the half way mark. 

He is now one of our major keys to any success we might experience, come finals.

Still unsure as to why Brayshaw was MIA this morning.

Plus it is meant to be wet on Sunday so as long as our forwards chase and tackle we should be fine.

50% chance of a shower, chiefly in the morning, total rainfall 1-2mm.

By 3.20 it will hardly be "wet".

Sounds like the rectus femoris group for Oliver,

I thought he was in the rehab group.

Is the rectus femoris group a sub-group to the rehab group.

Does he have to get out of the rectus femoris group into the rehab group then from there back into the main group. Sounds a long way off to me. Big doubt for Sunday.

Just as long as he's not in the rectus season group.

Sounds like a real pain in the rectus...!

Hope Oliver gets up if we lose him aswell as viney that’s our 2 best mids, my confidence for this game will take a hit

Sounds like the rectus femoris group for Oliver, at the front of the thigh, attaching around the knee and upper tibia. One related connector is across the top edge of the patella (kneecap) and suspiciously, this may be the site of discomfort. Should be right to play in he was moving freely at this point. Agree about Oliver's importance as a player as he gets the ball out or to a teammate at most contests.

Where is the, 'rectus femoris' ?

Sounds like a lingering injury?

With Viney out we don't have 7 other midfielders better - Oliver, Petracca, Jones, Tyson, Salem, Harmes. A fit and healthy Gus is next ahead of Stretch and Maynard.

The rectus is quite close to the dardenells, where my great uncle was shot in WW1. He couldn't sit down for a month, much less play footy.

I questioned this after JLT1 but I think his form in the 2nd game ensured he will play round 1.

Yes, I agree mate! Just showed a knack of doing the little things last game and showed he could fit in the backs, middle, or the forwards with his couple of snags at the end

I bet I can't say [censored] and bull

If anyone is heading down to training today we'd appreciated a training report including who is in the rehab group. Thanking you in advance.

IMO, Harmes' form might be a turning point in the Viney saga. He needs the imposed 'leash' to be taken off, that's all, as Harmes does surprising things unexpectedly and I'd consider that he has much more of these 'moments' held in abeyance. He is relatively quick, explosive, tough as nails - and very much a 'keen' team member - with most of the goods to drive the ball and teammates into positive play. And, of course, he is another year wiser.

A detailed report on Viney would be ideal. Is he walking? Did he run? Did he wear footy boots or just runners? Is he alive? All of these things need to be answered or the site may crash again.....

You missed; does he even exist?

I believe training is today, did anyone get down there??

My Brother is there now and reporting "Oliver is looking good".
