OMG

Where the hell is the exorcist?  Normie’s curse is alive and well.

Not that he was likely to get a senior game this year but doing well at VFL and hopefully winning finals would be so important to his development. 

Poor bugger.

    Rats! 

    A big preseason awaits the fella.

    Looking forward to seeing him play seniors next year

    A shame for Baker but as these things go, not the worst injury we could get. Hopefully it's the last bad one of '18!

    A real shame. VFL finals would be a step up in intendity so it's a shame he will miss that experience as a player.

    He has been good in the VFL so I think next year could be the year he finds time in the AFL team.

    And it didn't look that bad when he did it!  I initially thought he had cramp and the physios worked on him for a while near the interchange bench.  I thought Mitch King's knee injury was worse, yet he is a 50/50 chance this week!  Ironic!

    Must have been a serious tear, it’s a shame as he was showing some good signs with a chance to debut this year.

    So he's only available for the grand final or is he available for more games?

  • Quote

    Bummer, another soldier down. Have a good recovery and be raring to go in 2019!

    Was looking forward to seeing him play a game this year, especially with our outs and his pretty good form. TBH though, given it's 3 big-time opposition teams now, GC was probably his last chance anyway.

    Next year Oscar.

    Hopefully the next few weeks is all about getting our better senior players back in the team, rather than looking to blood a debutant.

    Baker has had a good first season developing in the vfl.  Bank it, then hit preseason at full speed.

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
