Re: 32. Andrew Lee
It is extremely lucky for Lee that he has a contract for next year as he has struggled to do much this year. Has had a string of minor injuries that havn't helped his cause and his output for Bendigo has been ordinary. In the last month he has sown signs of improvement but there is still a way to go. Yesterdays game against Williamstown (12/8/07) was a step in the right direction as he took a few good grabs while he was up forward and kicked two goals and he was solid in defence. He has the advantage that he has shown he can play at both ends of the ground when in form and he is reasonably quick for a tall. Needs a big pre season and a really solid year in 2008 as this year has been a backwards step from last season.

Re: 32. Andrew Lee
Give him a game this week and lets see what he's made of.
Rest Ryder and play Lee in his position.
Might as well give him a few games now even though his form does not warrant it.

Re: 32. Andrew Lee
What's happened to Lee? He played in the intra club match at Casey, went pretty well considering he was in the less expereinced team.
Has he played in a game since? Is he injured?

Re: 32. Andrew Lee
Must've been a pretty serious niggle for him to miss the next 5 weeks. Looking forward to his return for Bendigo.
Might be one of those players that strive under a new coach, well that's what hoping for anyway!

Re: 32. Andrew Lee
it was a niggle up at brisbane.......he still almost played the first nab cup game. but when he came back to melbourne the medical staff didnt get on top of it and the inury complicated itself.
he should be a handy vfl player this year. but unless we go down the "carlton" route, he doesn't stand a chance of playing a game in the seniors

Re: 32. Andrew Lee
hulld - Would I be right in saying he'd have to do something pretty special this year to stay on the list into 2009?

Re: 32. Andrew Lee
he'd definitely have to do something to impress. as the afl rules have it there has to be a minimum amount of player turnover by each club every season. besides pev and jj there wouldn't really be any other obvious delistees on the senior list so he is under pressure to perform.

Re: 32. Andrew Lee
Came to the club as a skinny kid dreaming of being the next Riewoldt(I know,I know). There were signs yesterday he might be a handy lead up CHF for Bendigo this year. Don't write him off just yet. Playing there might be enough to get his confidence back.

Re: 32. Andrew Lee
I'm writting him off. I would love for him to prove me wrong, but he has been in the system for 3 years and has shown little.
If he can't crack the side now, he never will.

Re: 32. Andrew Lee
What does that mean? They are not sure when he will be back for Bendigo? Or is it that serious that they have given up on him?

Re: 32. Andrew Lee
Well, this is his last year in contract. The injury might cost him 10-15 weeks (I have no idea) and perhaps he was told this was his last year to make the team. Maybe he feels that he should just retire now instead of doing all that work just to come back for 8 games.

Re: 32. Andrew Lee
I think the end is near. Shame, as he did show a bit in the VFL.

I doubt it, I imagine Knights has a fair idea of his plans for Lee already.
