Tom Ledger
Any updates?
I noticed 'The Barometer' section in todays Sun had him listed as injured, 1 week away.
Is this correct?
Ledger was easily our most impressive in the pre-season, and for mine is just the type of player we need in the side - tough, quick, wins the ball, can kick on both sides.

Nice young man
have had occassion to chat to him twice in the last week at functions (and he remembered me which impressed me as I thought I was totally forgettable .)
always seems to be hungry though -
but ask him for an autograph and whe'll write you a message.
totally surprised to be selected by the saints as he was working at the Eagles and fully expected to go there. But most impressed with the saints recruiters-
Said he is building back up again after his first ever injury.

Kick both sides..? You got that from two practice matches..?
Fair effort.

The Hun have had him injured for weeks. Even for the reserves games he played.
Has played in the last two Sandy games. Is building fitness base up after a reasonably serious hammy. His first real injury.
Will be a player IMO.
Should really be pushing for a spot in the next month.

Did he injure it signing autographs for Grumps?saintbrat wrote:he had arm in sling and x-ray package in handdcstkfc wrote:What was wrong with Crock's shoulder?saintbrat wrote:anyone ask Sam crocker what happened to his arm' shoulder on saturday?

Trained really well today, no sign of any injury. His field kicking and goal kicking is only second to Siposs!!

Did I doze off and miss all Ledgers heroics in the NAB Cup?
I saw him play one game, get maybe 6 touches, one or two of which hit a target nicely
Maybe my memory is playing tricks on me, but the way some people are carrying on, I must have missed the other 30 touches 10 clearances and a dozen hard ball gets

I dont watch NAB Cup for stats, I watch for players responses under pressure, decision making/skills and ball winning ability along with contested efforts and pace.
I liked what I saw in Ledger - his attack on the contest impressed me.

Geez! Such a small sample size for an analysis method so complex!
