Bring him back for the Easter Monday game

Only gets older, and Cameron needs a quick on him.

Frost is the perfect match. He won't get beaten for pace and can exploit the height advantage.

To match up on Cameron its not just a matter of speed, does Frost have the necessary agility and footy smarts.

Id give first crack to Greaves, he is physical, has toe and wants to hold his spot.. he’d be insanely motivated and it may show us what the kid can do.

Injury update - March 3rd

Jack Gunston (Ankle) 2-3 weeks
Blake Hardwick (Chest) 12 weeks
Daniel Howe (Foot) Indefinite
Jarman Impey (Knee) Indefinite
Jacob Koschitzke (AC Joint) 4 weeks
Josh Morris (Knee) 5-6 weeks
Ben McEvoy (Corked Thigh) Test
Tim O’Brien (Eye) Test
Dylan Moore (Groin) Test

Have I missed something with Howe?

Jesus need Gunno, but I think we can cover him early with our talls.

I’d be really cautious with this weeks game, can’t afford anymore injuries going into round 1.

Our depth will be tested during the early rounds of the season that’s for sure.

What picks does he have? We'd be wanting a first and maybe a second for him!

I would have given him away for a top 10 pick no dramas.

Must be the start of the season. I have come up with a formula for our injuries. If the HFC states 2 weeks, add 6 then divide by 2, then multiply by 2. So really a 2 week injury is really 8 weeks.
If you can grasp this, then you will not be disappointed when the player does not return in 2 weeks.

Hahaha this is spot on.. the club provide total rubbish with injury updates, I accepted it years ago.

I like your theory but it doesn't hold up under the Birchall test

Box Hill are playing a practice match against Casey today. Golds may have done a knee

 

[wahawk]

Any update on Lewis ?
will he be right for Rnd 1

 

[TylerDurden]

Golds ACL official?

 

[Pessimistic]

Injury update - March 3rd

24 Daniel Howe (Foot) Indefinite

Clarko said in his press conference that he just rolled it. He's probably getting scans today after flying back so we'll find out soon

Don’t hold to much in the club reporting of it Gunston was supposed to be 6 weeks and that was about 2 months ago from memory and the club is still saying 2 to 3 weeks.

So if the club says “Lewis will only miss a couple of weeks” then it’s a fair bet he has actually had the whole foot amputated.

Look foot amputation is actually a very simple and very quick operation even with a rusty axe.

Reconnection though could take a year or so. So I do understand your concerns.

So long as it's not his dominant foot then no excuses!

Thanks, Ash. We don't need you to rub it in!!

Yeah - it's pretty funny. I reckon Birch was 4 weeks away for the better part of two years. I wonder if other clubs do the same thing? I assume probably.

I tend to treat the Bupa Injury Report TM the same way as I treat weather forecasts. Is the player likely to be back for the next match: Yes/No. Anything beyond that is largely meaningless.

I think of it as the Blooper Injury Report. At least that's more accurate ... or appropriate!

between 2 weeks and indefinite is very very rubbery
