Fantastic. Another calf. Might be time to stop this silly wood at half back experiment and get him training with the forwards again.
Or Campbell.Yeah, nah.
We have Ziebell, Garner, Thomas, Hosie all capable of that role.
If Brown has indeed injured his calf, this puts Comben right in the Rnd 1 conversation.
He’ll certainly be partnering Larkey in the pre-season games.

Ziebell is underdone. Hosie hasn’t played a game.
None average as many goals a game as wood. Plus wood isn’t a defender.
Soft tissue injuries as a result of training harder than they have ever done?
Wood has been sent back for precisely the reason the club think Hosie is a much better forward.
I’d be cooling my jets there. Wasn’t good enough to get a game in the dead rubbers at the end of last year.
He was also good enough to kick more top tier state league goals than anyone else in the country last year.
I really don’t know how you can argue Hosie vs Wood at the moment, when the club is so clearly in on Hosie at the moment to the point they are shifting Mason to the other end of the ground in a position he’s never played before.
That’s how much Shaw rates him as a forward after getting a good look at him, tbh, I don’t blame him.
I doubt it, considering he’s also not been playing any of the practice matches.
Larkey, Brown and Comben have been the key forwards in everything I’ve seen.
Xerri has played as a pure ruck.
Comben is raw from a physical sense, but his preseason form warrants it more than even the likes of Xerri, Garner etc if we are looking at different setups.
argh, no, we've been down that road, picking Campbell as a marking forward over Larkey after the first couple of games last yearOr Campbell.
other way around, and only then if we got to a place where it was break glass and press emergency buttonWalker back - Daw forward is always an option.

Tom is ruck cover, not a key forward
I'll be the one to say it:Here we go with the injuries again. First we hear about Jack and Polec and now Brown. Only 3 of our most important players ffs.
Have you heard any news about his recovery from the foot op last week?I'll be the one to say it:
We better not hear a damn thing about Tarrant next.
The ol' 2 weeks....Have you heard any news about his recovery from the foot op last week?
Brown. Two weeks? Yeah, Nah?
