Injury Update

[shrodes]

Only 6 players selected for neither seniors nor Sandy - Butler , Higgins, Crouch, Van Es, Henry and Hotton. Cordy named as emergency for seniors but also listed as being rested and not named for Sandy so looks like he will be rested.
All bar Hotton are on our published injury list . Not sure what the story is with him.

Hotton is listed as 3-4 weeks with an ankle here

Van Es moved to LTI - out for season


Think that opens up a spot for the midseason draft if we want to use it

Allison, Crouch, Hotton fitness tests to play this week
Butler + Arie 1 week away (Arie concussed it seems which explains why no VFL)

Yes I think you are right about the Mid season draft so who should we target I would look at the best Ruckman/forward going around in all the state leagues
Especially as there is a state game this weekend SA V WA would be good to see who might be available.

Good to see some guns on the young fella

At least he looks like a footballer.
