So no Jeffo and Kentfield for the first few games at least you’d imagine.

Mihocek and JVR should be wrapped in cotten wool

Would think Heath would play against Saints and gives Max cover and another tall forward.

With those two unavaible for the first 3 months I think it might be time to break the incase of emergencys milkshake case.

Oh God no! I don't think I could take that. That is definate a pull the dohna over my head and forget football stuff.

Gee this kid is so unlucky, he gets picked up in mid season draft then 6 months later he cannot do preason because he is in hospital with a bad viral lung infection. 12 months rolls around and on top of his game and looking a first season game in the senior side and goes down with a serious knee injury 3 minutes into a practise game after marking in front of goal. Hang loss Batman.

Did he have the scans done in Ballarat? If so, and from my experience of the health system here, we might not have results till Friday

If you put some pressure on you can get results back by tuesday, but they might be someone else's hip replacement scans.

How did you get Bryce Gibbs' scans?

Returning to the topic for a moment, is anyone else feeling conflicted because of a deep relief about no apparent concussion, but real bitterness about a kid on the cusp of making AFL grade being pranged out at the very last obstacle?

Batman will rise again!

At first glance I though this was a microphone, triggering wishful thinking regarding <insert 'preferred' commentator/interviewer>.

Then I saw the light.

I suspect that whenever it is done it will be through a private provider, in which case any professional provider and sporting organisation should communicate within hours.

I am sure it is BT's microphone, and his X-ray. That is where his comments usually come from.

I really hope you didn't

The usual soft free kicks to TWSNBN as always against St kilda.

And why is no umpire saying STAND to both Teams in today's game. Yet MFC copped it all day from maggots

Do we have an update yet?

I am hoping for just bruising and available round one.

Well I can hope.

Quite the winning* catch, then!

No sign of Mcaulif being looked at by the MRO.

Could we field a player with similar body shape and attributes and hide his face under a mask for Round 1?

I have fingers crossed for Luker so Batmania can become Melbourne again.
