So if Walter's recovery timeline goes down to 2 weeks on Tuesday, does that mean he's potentially available to play in round 2 against the Bulldogs in Ballarat? Same question for Rogers - if his timeline goes down to 1 week on Tuesday then does that mean he's available to be picked for the Crows game? I'm fairly sure Rogers will play VFL first but Walter could be a chance to go straight in given the way he trained over the summer months.

I think both of them will be eased in. They are kids, no point rushing them and risking further injuries
 
Interesting that vfl Rd 1 march 23rd, we then have 2 weeks off before our next game, April 13th. You would the aim for walter, Rogers and Davies would be the round 1, but if more rest is needed they aren't going to miss much footy in terms of available games.

Does big Al come in when fit? Has been on the cusp for sometime and has continued to work on his forward craft, but seems like the midfield rotation is set and the only way in for him is if injury hits, unless he can compete with Holman/Tsitas/Macpherson/etc as well?

I think the only way he gets a game is if he is seen as a hybrid ruck option, a bit like Lukosius was used on the weekend. Otherwise he'll have to wait for injuries

Gold Coast SUNS small forward Malcolm Rosas is set for an extended stint on the sidelines after injuring his hamstring in the Round 5 clash against Hawthorn.


Rosas is expected to miss eight weeks after scans revealed significant damage to his hamstring.


“Mal was subbed out of the match after an incident in the third quarter in which he injured his hamstring,” GC SUNS Head Physiotherapist Lindsay Bull told the Qscan Injury Update.


“Further assessment has indicated he’s undergone a significant injury and while he won’t require surgery, we expect Mal to be out of action for 8 weeks.”


Key defender Sandy Brock has been cleared to play after fracturing his forearm in the VFL, while Jy Farrar (thumb) and Lloyd Johnston (hamstring) are both one week away from a return.

 
Geez that’s a blow. One of the players we could really least afford to lose given the complete pack of alternatives with his speed and goal sense. Dunno who replaces him.
Yeah that sucks! Rogers should get a good run at it, the closest player we have to mally is ace, a downgrade, but not opposed to seeing if dimma can make a player out of him
