Re: Schnieder OUT
The wording that concerned me was "some bone damage"
Hope it's not........Schneider 2 weeks scenario

Re: Schnieder OUT
Yep, Roo is about the only senior player left who could play in Round 1 - that means it must be time for him to get injured too.

Re: Schnieder OUT
With so many experienced players injured, the first few games will be a bit of a baptism by fire for a lot of our kids. Who knows, could end up being an invaluable learning process for them.
The hard times can only make us stronger as a team.

Re: Schnieder OUT
You can't really put that on him?!
He was kneed in the back, just an unlucky collision injury?

Re: Schnieder OUT
If it were soft tissue i would agree with you - but knee in the back is totally different.skeptic wrote:Anybody else tired of this...
Why is he even on the list
Not his fault and could have happened to anyone.
Just plain bad luck. The 'bone damage' part does sound like a worry...
Re: Schnieder OUT
So did anyone get reported for this? It seems like a pretty malicious act, even if it was an 'accident' players should still be responsible for contact with knees just the same as shoulders and elbows like we've seen with bump slipping high over the last couple of seasons. Or does the fact that the head/concussion issue isn't in play here mean it's fair game?
Re: Schnieder OUT
Feel really sorry for him and us, if we can get even 12 games from him this year it will have been worth keeping him on the list, such a class user of the ball and with with Dal gone class is in very short supply.

Re: Schnieder OUT
I read this post and wasn't going to take the bait but FFS the sheer ignorance behind this deserves a rant. The guy took a knee the back. It's not a soft tissue injury, it's not wear and tear.skeptic wrote:Anybody else tired of this...

Have a think before you post such utter crap

Re: Schnieder OUT
We haven't got much value out of Schneider of late, hopefully he can get back to being a consistent contributor.
The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Re: Schnieder OUT
The fact it happened in Adelaide where there was no official vision and only 100 or saints supporters probably didn't give this incident the profile it should have had. Probably something the AFL should consider for future practice matches particularly when the 2 competing teams are not based in the same state.God_Nel wrote:So did anyone get reported for this?

Bad luck for Schneider I hope he can come back and get a decent injury free run.

Re: Schnieder OUT
if it's not another soft tissue then the criticism at my post is fair enough but the fact remains, this guy is never on the park
all I read on this forum is how good he is... when does he ever play and produce
we would have been better of keeping Raph Clarke

Re: Schnieder OUT
That's got nothing to do with it. Armo got kneed in the back by Luke Hodge and there was stacks of vision. Armo was sore and may have missed the week after.Zed wrote:The fact it happened in Adelaide where there was no official vision and only 100 or saints supporters probably didn't give this incident the profile it should have had.

Hodge wasn't cited by MRP and had nothing to answer. In fact umpire gave free kick to Hodge because Milne had held his arm prior to the marking contest. So by that logic if you're pushed in the back you are allowed to punch someone in the head as you fall or elbow someone's jaw on the way down.
We know that umps have a hard time paying frees to some small forwards...It seems they also have a hard time citing reckless acts or rough conduct against some...It seems that some clubs and some players are more deserving of frees and fairness than others.
Re: Schnieder OUT
No, you're wrong. After being very durable - he played 24 in 2009, 25 in 2010, 21 in 2011 - he's had a couple of unlucky years, playing 8 and 5 the last two years. Injuries happen. If he plays less than 15 this year then it will be a trend. Otherwise I think your conclusion is suspect.SainterK wrote:He is always injured.
