Strange? Not at all. This is how the Club successfully keeps things under wraps. Even players’ parents aren’t told things that the Club want kept secret.

So, how did the journo find out? The journo in question is Clint Stanaway. Clint’s dad works for the Club, he does the strapping of players etc. and has done for 30 years.

Mods, feel free to delete this post if you feel it may be problematic. 

I would say then that this is a conflict of interest! Clint Stanaway should have stayed silent.. But after all he is a journo, and a BLOODY GOOD ONE AT THAT!

Unless the Club wanted it leaked out that way.

Why not? Clearly moonboots aren’t just for a new injury or re-injury, because Fritta’s not suffering either of those.

Unnecessary worry right here. Understandable, but nonetheless unnecessary. 🙂 

Yeah, righto WAR.. as u know I love ur work!😎🤩

Where's the "what they are saying at" thread for the QF?

Moon boots hold the ankle in a neutral position, 90 degrees to the leg. The boots immobilise foot joints and reduce pressure on the bones, ligaments and tendons of the foot and ankle while still allowing for a relatively normal walking gait.

Most people usually find that the moon boot can drastically reduce pain. It can help them get around without limping or the use of crutches

It provides less stress on bones and ligaments then it would trying to limp around on without one.

Thanks Daz, as an Ex Phys ed person, I should have known that!🥴

He’s also a hardcore Dees tragic, as is his dad. Clint’s a really nice person, too. I just hope they aren’t in trouble for this. Although now I’m wondering if this was orchestrated by the Club just to mess with Magpie heads. Maybe I just read DL too much. 😂

Bailey would still kick 6 in the QF even he is wearing the moonboot during the game!

The game is as much between the ears WCW .

We're playing them...and not just next Thursday ;) 

A fabulous film..." the man who wasn't there "   context... look it up and have a ponder.

Love messing with faux intellects 😉

So this could be independent from the original injury.

No. The only injury here is the injury to our intelligence. “Race against time” LOL.

REEEELLLLAAAXXX!

I read he’s in a moonboot then immediately boarded a flight. 
Landed to 109 texts from my dad and videos from channel 7 showing he’s in a race against time. 
I am still on the plane hyperventilating. 
Thanks for the reassurance @WalkingCivilWar

 

Now please someone get the witch to lift the forwardline spell!

just a propaganda stunt to befuddle the filth

I've sent these two guys ...

They will know what to do!

Bailey gets a phone call

Mum - Bailey!  Whats this I hear about you in a moon boot?

Bailey - Mum, geez relax.

Mum - did I need to hear it from the Demon Army?

Bailey - Muuuummmm I'm trying to get my daily haircut here

and so on

... this forum reminds me of..., One Flew over The Cuckoos Nest.

Almost 2 weeks before the finals start.

Its called mind games.

Brace for impact.

Yes, indeed, and how are they reacting to the Fritsch speculation?

Poor old Paulsy broke her fibula in three places. 😭 Her dad (Grandpa Fritta) had a quad bike accident a few weeks ago and ended up with eight broken ribs. Her mum (Grandma Fritta) had a fall in Hobart when we played there recently and broke her wrist. When Pauline rang me from the hospital last week she said, “it’s all Bayley’s fault… he started this run of broken bones!” 😂

I've suggested we need to wrap them all in cotton wool. I spoke to Scott after the Hawthorn game, I don't think I'll mention his "injury".
