Cowan unfortunately has to be cut if that's the case. You can't keep persisting with a guy who can not manage a handful of games each season.
I reckon Schroder is gone too.

Sad but (probably) true.I reckon Schroder is gone too.

Just playing Devil's Advocate mate.Except if they're Dan Menzel ;-)
I think In all seriousness Menzel has at least demonstrated an ability to play at an elite level. Whether he can get back to that level is arguable but I think having come this far with his latest round of surgery he deserves one further opportunity to resurrect his career.
Menzel they'll probably work something out for next year. Maybe a rookie spot. Bottom line is the club can't keep guys on the list who never play and have wrecked knees.
Caddy back, Christensen and Kersten coming good, Motlop better for the run in a few games, Jansen and Lang cutting it up in the VFL, Varcoe moving smoothly, Hawkins well and truly free of any back issues... all augurs well for a solid second half of the season.
Josh Cowan is actually included on this week's injury list!

Really looking forward to the return of #18. Can only imagine how much he must be hoping to get back out there.
And then how much it will mean if he can play more than 'one in a row'.
All the best, Josh.
1-2 weeks for Cowan? I suspect there might be a tiny amount of optimism in that.

Wouldn't take any notice of that list considering Josh Caddy,who is playing VFL this week,is listed as 1-2 weeks
Still don't know if these lists are provided by the club or by jounalists guessing.
I hadn't seen that so I found what Chris Scott said "Billie Smedts played off the back of one VFL game but that was because he had a really solid preparation and training load. That was all he needed."Interesting that Chris Scott took the opportunity to give his reasons for Smedts being included in the AFL team after only 1 VFL game. I hope Christensen isn't rushed back but it seems that he will be treated more cautiously.

Billie's injury was, at first, listed as bone bruising but turned out to be a fracture (which I assume would be minor but still need healing prior to playing). I would then assume that Billie was able to keep up with a lot of his training- though modified- despite not being able to play.I hadn't seen that so I found what Chris Scott said "Billie Smedts played off the back of one VFL game but that was because he had a really solid preparation and training load.

Just goes to show that fitness base isn't everything as far as Billie's performances go so far, "touch" might also have been needed. Hopefully he can find a bit of that against the Saints. Looking at the draw I was hoping we could squeeze Bundy in soon in a 'softer' game, but the way the competition is this year none of the games to come really look like walkovers anymore. Perhaps the Saints at home on form looks the easiest. That should be the team rule anyway I suppose, no underdone players unless absolutely necessary no matter who the opponent.
Aside from that it's great to have Caddy & Bundy not too far away, both will add a bit of inside grunt and the odd goal, and allow Johnson especially to spend more time up forward.
