Reckon he should strap the other one. Then these Vic thug teams will try and ram him late on his good side.

Great news but hope we are adopting a zero risk strategy with him.

Agree give him the wk off aswell as hammer.
I don't have Hammer as best 22 to be honest. Absolute legend, but reckon he is depth now - the upside for giving Jones and Bergman 15 games before finals (if we get there) is massive.

Great news on Houston. How much truth there is to that though is questionable, we've been very sneaky around injuries for a while now. You wouldn't be in the pain he was, wearing a sling post game, and unable to lift an arm or tackle if there wasnt an issue. Just got to hope it is a minor AC joint, and nothing to do with any shoulder ligament tears and/or future reco.
If he can be back though, at near 100% in the next couple weeks that would be a huge boost.

I reckon give him a week tbh. It's a long season.

If St.Kilda is a massive danger game then every single game we play for the rest of the season is a massive danger game.
St Kilda are up and down and remember they knocked us off last season at AO
They came off a just a 5 day break and got pumped by Richmond, but just 9 days ago beat West Coast comfortably after they touched us up a week before
yes its a danger game. If they bring their A game it will be a tough one for us especially with our injury/soreness concerns
I was until I realised Ryder bathed Slyce last year and Zak farken Jones carved up centre clearance (no disrespect to Zak but I don’t think he will do that again)
No Ryder and a underdone Marshall for the saints should mean that advantage isnt there this year
We’d be 65-35% favs I’d say
But there’s always the “what happened power” situation so maybe this is all just BS

They kicked 12.1 against us at AO. If they can manage to kick with that accuracy again then they may come close to us. Baring the West Coast win (who can't win at the Dome to save themselves) they've looked like utter garbage. Their defense has let up the second my points in the league behind North Melbourne. This shouldn't be considered a danger game. We should beat them comfortably even if Houston misses.
Agree that the 5 day break probably hurt them.
Disagree that they beat West Coast comfortably. They were less than ordinary for the first 2.5 quarters, then they ramped up the pressure immensely for the next 30 minutes and West Coast lost the plot. But they have been horrible against Essendon and Richmond, and only just beat an ordinary GWS. Sure they could turn it around, but on form they have been pretty average this year. If any team brings their A-grade pressure they are in with a chance, but from what I've seen of St Kilda this year if they can't sustain that then we should win comfortably, especially at home, on Anzac Day.
AFL may insist on that week
They kicked 12.1 sure , that's accurate as hell and helps but they smashed us all over the ground particularly in the middle where we have a few banged up at the moment.
This can't happen again
In saying this though I think we'll win comfortably. They're not keeping Boak and Wines to 15 possessions again

Stoked for Dan. Was really worried itd be a long lay-off like Butters and Duursma. He's so important.

Can't agree with that. They are a different team with Rowan Marshall in the ruck
We take them lightly at out peril
