Did I see Ward on crutches at the leadership group announcement?

With Mohr out for that long it certainly opens the door for Frost and Corr, and by all reports Frost has been training the house down.

And on Schulz it makes it really tough on him after being moved to the rookie list

Andrew Phillips with another f#%#ing hamstring. Will he ever get it right?

 

[captainMyCaptain]

Hopefully nothing to serious but super effort by Davis on Saturday

Greater Western Sydney captain Phil Davis is believed to be suffering kidney damage and has been in hospital since the game ended on Saturday night.

Davis took a hit midway through the first quarter and played out the game.

He complained of pain after the match and was taken to hospital.

Hoping nothing too serious. Huge game on the weekend and has had enough bad luck

 

[Scully2Folau]

Jesus. Davis' performance on Buddy will not be one that's forgotten any time soon. Hope he pulls up ok.

 

[Ichabod Noodle]

Monster effort to keep Buddy to bugger all with a busted kidney.

 

[OrangeDuck]

Not a bad way to get out of training...

But seriously, this makes his efforts seem so much greater knowing he was playing out three quarters potentially injured AND playing a key role.

 

[Simmofreo]

Is this an injury that can be fixed in 2 weeks ? Or will this keep him out for a while. God I hope not

The vibe to me - not reported for two days, few details when it was reported, still in hospital two days later, kidney - says it could be at least somewhat serious. But I could be wrong and we won't know until more details are released.

 

[Simmofreo]

I'm really nervous about this no Mohr and we need Davis

The best fullbacks are legends people don't know about until they are deliberately exposed. Davis will be a legendary FB

St Kilda have limited attack, GWS have limited defence.. evens out.

 

[Ellie Aquitaine]

Fingers crossed all will be well with Phil.

 

[IanW]

If it's a choice between him taking all the time he needs to get right, or risking his long term health by being rushed back - take all the time he needs. Its only footy, and the year is already a success.

 

[coniglio_number1]

If Davis is out then the door has opened for plowman, corr and jaksch to grab a spot in the side

 

[gee whiz giant]

Don't write off Gilham completely. An old head may be better than a young inexperienced one. If it's like-for-like replacement, then Gilham most closely matches Davis. Happy to say, we have depth at last!

Doesnt have close to the pace any more.

 

[dlanod]

I'd probably tip Corr as the best like for like replacement for Davis after last year.

 

[gee whiz giant]

Doesnt have close to the pace any more.

True that, but what he does, or should have, is Hawthorn like kicking skills. If there is a weakness in Haynes, (to a lesser extent Kennedy) & Frost, it is pin-point passing from defence, coz' when the boys spray it gets ugly quickly. My thinking is those three kids in any one defence is enough, what's needed is composure and reliabiity. If Corr or Plowman are ready for that, all the better!!

 

[Stan_Ipkiss]

All the best to Fabulous Phil Davis, was gutted to hear what happened to him. What a courageous guy. Respect.
