Jaksch has already gone down

Carlton have signed a bit of a blast from the past, for those of you who remember him. Played 26 games in the early 2000s glory years, majority in our wooden spoon year under Rhode when we had similar big names like Trent Bartlett, Kingsley Hunter and Shane Birss running around.

Kicked 5 goals against Essendon in his first game didn't he? Took a couple of ripper marks too. Apart from that....

That's a pretty good prognosis for a navicular. Usually they are a year off straight away.

Wouldn't wanna rush it and turn him into a Trengrove

Or a Tom Williams. But is it GWS sabotage? Ask questions man

.. or he is more a Trengrove than we think and GWS did what Melbourne couldn't?

I never like seeing anyone get injured but this gave me a smug grin, must be a Carlton thing.

not good for him, has a certain hawthorn selling duds smell to it for some reason

Three but all quality

Do you think K-Mac's playing career will fit the profile for future coaches? Not a career of note at the elite level but with enough knowledge from the 2nd tier to succeed. It's a model that has produced the last 2 NRL premiership coaches, so perhaps AFL clubs are starting to copy the blueprint....

Yes

Scott on Waite

“We still believe his best football is in front of him, even though he’s closer to the end of his career than the start”

 

[Easty]

Brad could be out of a job in 12 months time if he truly believes that.

I have never heard that before about Waite. What an original and novel idea.

Tigers just announced Choco has cancer. Terrible news. Wonder if it impacted on his candidature for our coaching role if he knew some time ago. Wishing him well.

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

Very bad to hear that. Wishing him all the best

Just an aside, but has anyone ever seen you and KMac4FF in the same room?

We do have some spooky similarities now that you mention it

Did the article say he was still going to be coaching down at Richmond whilst he tries to recover?

As someone who has known a number of people with cancer, I'd be thinking he would be spending more time with his family
in case, you know

Having been through exactly the same thing as "Choco" I can assure you that he prognosis for recovery and a long somewhat fruitful life is quite good!

Chemotherapy being what it is, he'll have his ups and downs, but if he chooses to, has a supportive employer and looks after himself with plenty of rest. There is no reason why he cannot continue with his role down at the Tigers. Its not like he's digging ditches for a living.

I've only seen what happens when they don't catch it in time unfortunately, that is why I made that comment
