If Brown is out today (Friday) on Health and Safety Protocols does that rule him out for next Thursday’s match?

The problem with the short, medium, long, indeterminate model is that it can also fall prey to the 4-6 issue where a short becomes medium or medium becomes long. It's the how long is a piece of string conundrum for some injuries. Time heals all wounds except some wounds heal slower than others.

I agree with this and would put Petty in the indeterminate category. He was 3-4 after he had his calf operation and was still 3-4 last week. He’s come down to 2-3 but I’ll bet my right pinky that he’ll be 2-3 next week too.

I wish that was actually a mullet.

You only have to look at the emergencies to see that there is no concern with having to cover that type of player. I guess Weid can come in and TMac can go back as a defender to cover Riv. Weid is there mainly for a ruck or key forward or back (TMac back/Weed forward) going down. Bedford will likely be the sub again. Dunstan covers the mids too. Melk?

More Thursday nights and floating fixtures for Blockbusters.

NO CHANGE

Better news

Yeah you’d expect one of those calling mum and dad videos or the boys getting around him at Training after Goody informs them prior to or after the session.
