Good to see Evans has a time frame. Shame he'll be out for pretty much the whole season.

 

[Theseventhhamster]

There's a chance of getting some Jizz soon!

 

[PitchBlease]

So glad when I read that Stef, Gys and Strauss could be back soon. Those three could each be a huge boost to the team post-bye.
Mightily glad for Nev, too. Really rate him, glad he looks like being able to push his case for selection/re-signing now. Interesting type of player, but love his intensity at the contest.

^ agree cant wait to see gys, strauss back in the team, as well as Martin.

Great new avatar there Jako!

I am looking forward to seeing this list post-bye - should be very nice and short. *touch wood*

 

[Bluelegs]

I would love to see Jetta get a couple of games this year when he's back. The guy has one of the worst runs with injuries.

 

[Timmy Houlihan]

Agreed, cant wait for Strauss and Gys to return

 

[rhaz]

Add "Bigfooty - indefinite" to the injury list

 

[Black Dynamite]

With Gys getting close, does this mean JV is also a chance to have another run at Casey soon?

 

[Dory_77]

Good to see Gysberts back (possibly); now don't get hurt! Nice to see Martin and Strauss as possibles for Casey. Hope those 3 especially can string some solid games together and get some game time in the seniors.

Would be good to see Gysberts in, to actually see where he is at,
same with Strauss, Id be happy if one of them turns out half decent.
Blease's form has been a massive plus for us, glad he is turning out as expected.
Tapscott ticking along nicely aswell, hopefully all these kids can finish the year
in decent form and go into next year with confidence in themselves.

Yeah, there is a fair bit of upside....
As for Strauss and Gysberts; i recon Gysberts will be a good to fair player, Strauss i have a bit more hope for. He is another player coming in with elite kicking ability and is a great reader of the play. Before his injury late last year, i felt he was the one who would play a run-though role in the back line. He from all reports has recovered well from his snapped leg and will certainly debut soon.
Once he gets some games into the legs will become a very good player for the Dees!!

Gysberts will be a lot better than a "good to fair" player.

He is going to be an absolute gun, and I rate him as the best youngster on our list.

We have missed him a lot this season.

Yep, I looked at the stats for our 2011 Essendon win last year: Gysberts 30 touches, 3 Brownlow votes. He is a tall ball magnet midfielder with class and time. He will be a fixture in our midfield. Can't wait till he gets right.

 

[PitchBlease]

This has been one of the most galling things about the injury list: so many promising young guys out, who should be running around developing. It makes the list seem more hopeless than it really is and sells us short to casual opinion-havers in the media. Misson'll be building up Gys's strength and endurance, and he's absolutely one of our brightest.

 

[Fitzey]

Carn't wait to see Gys come back!

 

[BigSexc]

Finally worked out this new BigFooty thing, couldnt remember my password.

On Topic: Hoping Gys can play some consistent games for the rest of the year. kills me to see others in his draft class killing it.
