I hope they give Moloney, Rivers and Bartram the rest of the year off. What's the point in rushing them back, given their injury problems, when the year is already gone?

None of them are fighting to stay at the club, as when fit, they are quite clearly in our best 22.

[Rogue 585]

Better than it's been this season. The comments on Injury Update regarding Rivers and Moloney aren't great though, and seem to raise a query over their return ETA.

Very disappointing that Bartram is looking like missing most of the season after having such a great start in '06. I guess that's the way the cookie crumbles sometimes.

no word on wheels? does that mean he'll pop in this week?

also seems odd that neitz would have a test for his finger injury, either it's a smoke screen or it's a decent bloody finger injury, the man is a machine for crying out loud

Selection of Newton might come down to Neita's fitness.

I'd love to see them both play alongside Robbo, Bate and Sylvia, but I don't think we'll go that way.

We already struggle when the ball hits the deck in the forward line, particularly with Davey being played up the ground.

The interesting thing about injury lists is the comparison between us and our opponents this weekend:-

ESSENDON:

Courtenay Dempsey (hamstring) - test

Dean Dick (arm) - 2 weeks

Jay Neagle (foot) - 3 weeks

MELBOURNE:

Ben Holland (nose) - test

Travis Johnstone (Achilles) - test

Brent Moloney (groin) - test

David Neitz (finger) - test

Jared Rivers (groin/back) - 1 week

Adem Yze (groin) - 1-2 weeks

Daniel Hughes (groin) - 3-4 weeks

Clint Bartram (knee) - indefinite

Dempsey, Dick and Neagle would have played a handful of games between them while our injury list tallies hundreds of AFL games experience.

a quick count, and it is late, but i reckon its over a thousand games of experience there...
