Sam Gilbert in a moon boot

Post: # 1430625Post BringBackMadDog »

Sorry if I missed this, but I was watching the pride march today and Gilbo was wearing a moon boot. Has he re-juried himself?

He's been instructed to use his right foot more,
this technique restricts the use of the left foot,
to use the other foot.
Schneider has been issued with a gimp mask for pre-season games,
to reduce the chance of umpire back-chat.

Con you do realise a moon boot can mean stuff all. Some players even wear them between rounds and still play. Have you got information to suggest he will miss training for about the next 4 weeks because thats probably the time frame for missing round one?

I've been reliably informed that there is nothing wrong with Gilbo and that my flying pig drinks too much Red Bull !!


NEW scarf signature (hopefully with correct spelling) will be here as soon as it arrives !!

Tell that flying pig to keep a low profile asada could throw their book at him or her. I've heard they are itchin to apply the maximum penalty for such performance-enhancing soft drinks.

GO SAINTS


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

Pluggs he would not wear a moon boot to a big public event unless it was a serious injury .

Maybe they wear them at home etc.

Complete rubbish. He wouldnt be at a public event, marching, if he had a serious foot injury. Now which of those to statements makes more sense?

ok - pluggs - you are best mates with all players and you know inside info.
how dare i have an opinion.

Lets be honest - men in their 20s are very vain.They wouldn't attend a very public event in a moon boot unless they had to.
thats my opinion. maybe I'm wrong.
we shall soon find out i guess.

Im not mates at all with Gilbert and I have no idea what is wrong with him but hey if you are struggling that old chestnut will do. And the club wouldnt let him march IMO if he had a serious foot injury whether Gilbert is vain or not. And you entilted to your opinion and im entilted to ask how you come to such a conclusion unless we can say what we want and not expect any questioning.

Gilbert wearing a moon boot shouldn't be surprising, he has a history of being a space cadet.

Anyway it's a development year so injuries don't matter much unless they are serious ones.

From the Herald Sun online this arvo...
"ST KILDA'S Sam Gilbert is the latest player to hit a pre-season speed bump, the defender in doubt for Round 1
after suffering a stress fracture in his left foot."
