ABC saying calf. Had ice on lower calf / Achilles.

Fox footy had no idea - not surprisingly

Probably precaution as game was lost with only a couple of minutes left

He was off for nearly the last half of the last quarter.


As ex-president Peter Summers said:
“If we are going to be a contender, we may as well plan to win the bloody thing.”

I'm guessing he will play through any niggle just to get on the pitch next week. Even if it means giving him a light week then whack him at FF and Bruce CHF.

Not if he hurt his calf. That would be completely unprofessional by the club.

Will play in the Maddie match. Cant see him missing that even if he plays from the goal square


In Springfield, they're eating the dogs. The people that came in, they're eating the cats. They’re eating – they are eating the pets of the people that live there.

If he really hurt his calf then he shouldn't, whatever the match.

Without any idea i think it was precautionary. We were gone with about 12 mins to go.
He never looked frustrated either

StkFC on Facebook Q&As : We'll have to wait and see. Roo's calf is tight but he will be assessed this week.

Riewoldt spoke to reporters as he arrived for scans late on Monday.

"Obviously (I) want to play every week, but this is a really significant week for obvious reasons," Riewoldt said.

"It is still only early, I'll have the scan and talk to the doctors and go from there basically.

"I think I got it pretty early. I just felt it tighten up a little bit and then came off."

... more to come

Rooey's Running Ability

Post: # 1563872Post Megamaguire »

The commentators i listened to on the radio were mightily impressed at the number of 50m and 100m sprints Rooey was churning out as a senior player on the weekend. Great for the young players to witness that up close.

Hope the big fella is ok for next week knowing how much it'll mean to him.

The boy can play and we can build a defence around him that will have respect.
