Don't risk him at all. And book him in for surgery if he needs anything done as well.

Yazz might play. Only a half-grade strain in the small calf muscle (same as when Waite missed that VFL game a few weeks ago). Should get up to play according to Macca.

As nice as it would be and as important as it would be for Yarran to play, you wouldn't risk him would you?

Yarran isn't the best player to play sore
Agreed, a few blokes like he and Mclean aren't much good unless they are 100%.

Was thinking exactly the same thing when I watched the clip. Same goes for Kreuzer, don't see the point in giving him one game at senior level.
Good grief Hendos injury sounded gruesome to repair
Red time is a disaster for us whichever way we look at it.
Kreuzer is 100% fit and has been training for quite some time. He is not where we would like him to be yet. He is still a developing player and that means every game we can get into him is crucial. It's important for the player to get some games in and finish the season playing to get confidence that it's healed as well.
There is absolutely no point in resting a player who is not injured. It's not fair on the player for a start.
If he does re-do this injury playing then that means that the injury was more than likely going to re-appear down the track any way.
The club (and possibly some other clubs) will want to see if he can get through the last couple of games.
Yarran is injured, Kreuzer is not, there is a difference.

Agreed very similar situation that Thomas was in this year, not injured just needed to find fitness and touch

Did Hendo seriously have his face pulled back? The thought of that is making me sick

He did. Who'd have thought that such a nothing incident ( well it looked like that at the time) would force him to need such extreme surgery. Poor guy.Did Hendo seriously have his face pulled back? The thought of that is making me sick
If Matty is fit to play, play him.Foot injuries are a tricky thing but he's had 4 months of rest. If the foot is found to be unstable, better to find out now and take remedial action than find out next March a week before the season.

What sort of knee for Thomas? Not ACL?
Tough break for Ellard. If it's just a cracked bone he might get back, but a full break will put a lot of pressure on his place on the list. Feel bad for him.

It's that Rohan White doctor. Pretty superficial diagnosis though - he was going off observations.I thought it was his knee.
As for Doc Larkins

"Carlton's Dale Thomas may miss the rest of the 2014 season after he went down in last night's game with what looked like an right ankle injury.
Triple M Footy's Dr. Rohan White said the injury was very reminiscent of the ankle injury that kept the Blue out of the 2013 season. "In the last quarter he hobbled off with what i thought was his right ankle," White told Triple M Footy.
"This is the ankle that’s been the problem to him for the last couple of years dating back to 2012 when he had a couple of operations and extensive rehab."
A whole lot of guesswork.

That's what I thought. They had his whole knee strapped up.
Pies board frothing over a possible ankle injury.
