The astute will acknowledge Drew being in the forward line means Waite gets the second defender and Brown gets the third. Which means if Drew goes to the backline, he scores nothing, Waite scores less, Brown scores less and Daw adds not much at this stage.

Anything to get 'an average' forward out of that part of the ground.

Hope this is the case and if it is, then let me say long live longlivenmfc. Taz is a crucial player this year so anything to counter the vertebra fracturing theory will be taken as gospel until proven otherwise.

Sweet! As I said I have no idea about severity, just know that it happened & is an issue.

Apparently the competition for the couple of small forward/fringe midfielder positions in the team is playing out to be particularly fierce on the training ground, with that clash on Taz an unfortunate outcome of it.
 
Caught 20-30 mins of training just then.

Taz, Wells and Dumont doing a regulation kick to kick in a triangle.

Few kicks in Taz goes down (didn't see what happened) lying flat on his back. Steve Saunders called over and talked to him for 2-3 mins while on the ground.

Walked off with the doc very gingerly. Looks to be a lower back injury. Looked in a bid of pain.

Watch this space (unfortunately)

NO
 
Really was quite odd. Looked like an 80 year old man picking himself up off the deck.

Hopefully just tightness or a twinge/spasm

Was Drew lurking around nearby?

In all seriousness, that's horrible news. Hopefully it's nothing major and he's out playing on Saturday.
 
Few possibilities

1 - spasm so not too much to worry about. He's played 2 nabs so rest up for round 1.

2 - more than a spasm and north knew about it trying to get him through without surgery. Not good for his 2016 prospects

3 - out of the blue injury. Not good for his 2016 prospects
