A few injury problems down at Geelong ....
Matthew Scarlett has injured his knee and will miss 6 weeks.
Matthew Egan is having complications with his injury and will be unavailable for 2 months.
It doesn't take much. The competition is so close now that 2-3 players are the difference between a finish of 1st and a finish of 6th.

They should only play AFL games now when it's raining. Slow games of footy are so much better to watch.

exactly he played right throughout the home and away season and set them in good stead for the finals.

take out scarlett and egan then a slow coach tom harley takes the first tall and an aging milburn takes the second
leaving the smaller forwards to run riot...
look what happened when we had no max and no goose...there is your answer

They will both probably be back for round one, but we're St.Kilda supporters we know full well how much an interrupted pre-season can affect your players....
You would also expect them to drop a bit anyway without injuries aswell as most other teams to improve, I don't see them being the force they were in '07, I still think they will finish on top but I don't think they will take out the flag...
