so something like this:

Polo - hand, available
Cripps - ?, available (they haven't acknowledged that he missed last week)
Baker - foot, 1 week (probably won't play vfl)
Ledger - hamstring, 2 weeks
Cahill - quadriceps, 5 weeks
Gardiner - knee, 6+ weeks (I'd be surprised if he got back sooner)
Geary - leg, 10-15 weeks (undisclosed as yet)
Hayes - knee, season

i'm interested to see if polo can show something. there might be tough competition for places at sandy this week - two return from injury, three saints players in the sandy reserves looked decent last week, and maybe one or two dropped from the afl side.

Geary....cracked fibula.....4-6 week injury...

Non weight bearing, fast healing bone.....would not even stop him from walking.....just training.

My guess.....he will be playing 8 weeks after injury

Any news on Gwilt, he came off in the third quarter and didn't come back on. The doc was looking at his knee. No mention in the coverage on on any medical reports.
