Ha definitely not a stalker. Only leaves one other choice.

nah. eddy and miles have both been emergencies quite a few times this year, i reckon they're probably still ahead of steven. but both steven and l fisher have been thereabouts the last couple of weeks in the ressies, so still a bit of competition for the next spot.

So...any legitimate report from the club?

If he was playing in the '60s under Jeans, he would be straight back in the team next week.

Are we sure this is correct, nothing from the club seems strange.

If your collarbone was broken I doubt you could go back on the field after having it strapped. Your shoulder would need to be supported as the collorbone acts as a tie member between the shoulder and the sternum

If he was Jimmy Stynes - he'd be out there next week!

Jarryd Allen - Torn hip muscle, indefinite
David Armitage - Shoulder, 2 weeks

Hmmm...doesn't look like L. Fisher is a likely candidate for replacement then (not that I took that suggestion seriously, sorry).

Leigh Fisher as well??

Jeez. We mightn't have many injuries this year, but the ones we do have are all in the same area - our midfield depth.

What about Steven and Miles, even Begley or Howard to release Goddard into the centre...I don't think we're at North Melbourne panic stations yet.

What about the forgotten man of StKilda, Robert Eddy??

Howard can't even get a game for the ressies senior team.

Begley just isn't up to it IMO.

IMO Steven has more to offer than Eddy in the long run, but Eddy's final experience could make the difference...

Leigh Fisher has had a fair go and it is time to step aside IMO, he's just not up to it.

gotta hate the 2 weeks!

lendog heaven · Tue 23 Jun 2009 10:25pm

didn't see Eddy playing @ Pox Hill last Sun - Nick Heyne did well when moved into the midfield

Maybe it was just fractured rather than broken???

That's a new one. Do you have to get a plate in that one if it's not right in 2 weeks.??

Lenny missed three weeks with his collarbone injury which was a really quick recovery.

The most famous such injury to a Saints player was to Peter Everitt in the 1st Final of 1997. We all wish that had been a 3 weeker less one day. Alas, it was a 4-6 weeker. No GF.

followed closely by the roo and brisbane lions incident
