[KrispyKreme]

Touché

You know its true

McAulliffe was taken off and notheing was said now he has a 6 week calf

Richmond the campaigners need to let us know asap

 

[Sir_Loin]

He’s not ready yet
Settle

If anyone needs to settle it’s you. You’re very uppity

 

[Nostradumbass]

You know its true

McAulliffe was taken off and notheing was said now he has a 6 week calf

Errr what?

 

[brikzone]

"Youngster Josh Smillie notched up 10 disposals while playing on managed minutes" VFL report posted on richmondfc website.
surely if he was injured they would mention that right?

 

[brikzone]

You know its true

McAulliffe was taken off and notheing was said now he has a 6 week calf

says he had foot soreness on injury report where is 6 week calf from?

 

[brikzone]

actually i just watched the vfl coach interview he says smillie had a injury or a niggle , wow nice

 

[lalorGOAT]

Gun. Just get his body right.

 

[prodigy]

Great skills in the clinch and presents well on the outside but needs to work on his running patterns and overall fitness

Maybe a month or two in the maggoos and he will be pushing for selection

He won't be in the two's for a month or two lol. Maybe one or two more games at most.
When you have top 10 talents, you want them getting AFL experience as soon as possible.

My body is right

what you talking about

 

[Cdog71]

This kid was probably the best player in his league cause players couldn’t deal with his size. Probably top 3 of his Rep team cause players hadn’t ever had to deal with his size.
Bachelor stopped himself from saying another injury and called it a niggle.

This kid needs this season to get right and then he’s just a kid who’s never really competed against senior footballers

 

[poppa pump]

6.50pm from afl.com
Stated smillie got through unscathed and impressed.

 

[lalorGOAT]

My body is right

what you talking about

Good. We need your hammies.

 

[THE_GUN]

Good. We need your hammies.

I got a shed load of hammies

even have spares in my gut

Except he literally said that he got “another injury or a niggle”. Though did look a little sheepish when he said it.

 

[tiger_tough]

No mention if a niggle here

Big selection calls await for Tigers, Lions ahead of next round - https://www.afl.com.au/news/1292737

Also mentions this:

"He got through two-and-a-half quarters over three (quarters). He'll get through another full game and just start piling on some performances that warrant AFL selection."

VFL have a week off next week, so we're not seeing Smillie at AFL level for at least 3 more rounds.

He may have been talking about another player because vfl has 5 on the bench
Maurice was the emergency
Then he mentioned smillie on limited minutes
Then he said another injury/niggle, hopefully he was referring to another player

This was my initial thought too hearing the answer.

But it was hard to tell.

Yze didn’t mention anything when asked in his presser either.

Find out Monday I guess.

He was walking freely after his managed time, you guys are all tripping, in Serp we trust.
