Have you heard anything???

Gram flew to the GC with the team. Nothing unusual in that. Most sides that travel interstate take one of their emergencies in case someone needs to be replaced at the last minute.
Milne had his knee strapped for last weeks game and appeared to hurt it during the game. He did manage to play out the game, though, so I can't imagine it's too serious.
I'd expect Milne to be playing.

Has anyone forgotten that game at suby last year???

Milne's a toughnut, unless its really serious i think he'll play.

Milney has had his knee strapped for a month or more, as has Dal & Geary !!

seriously?

i'm pretty sure that when milne limped off, accompanied by trainers, last week, he didn't have his knee strapped. when he came back on he did. which suggests he hurt it last week.

Yeah he did, there was extra strapping on it when he returned

Milne had to undergo a fitness test today at the gold coast to determine whether he'll be right to play. not sure how it went but i guess there's not long before we find out.
And yes, Milne has had his knee strapped for most if not all season.
Hopefully he pulls up ok, it would have to be serious for him to miss.

Bummer. I hope it's just the one week. It better not be serious like Lenny's he played the game out with his too. I don't think so though.

What a missed opportunity to bring in Ross Tungatalum

That would have been fantastic..he will be one of the great goal sneaks ever if he can add some muscle to that frame.

bergsone · Post: # 748299Post **bergsone** » Sat 30 May 2009 7:58pm

Up to Gwilt,Schniter,Jones,Geary etc to take up the slack ,score board pressure which Milne allways supplies
