Almost a blessing in a development year. We know what Laird can bring.Sucks for Laird to be missing the first month... but it does open up midfield rotations for a developing youngster, which would otherwise be going to Laird.
Berry, Cook & Pedlar in the guts. I think Dawson is more outside, not really a centre clearance player.Almost a blessing in a development year. We know what Laird can bring.
Reid talk about exposing our list end of last year.
Who do you think fills that role, Dawson? Opens up the wings for Hinge, Cook or Soglio.
Or more Like for like Berry or give Pedlar a run on ball?
For me I'd be getting games into Cook and Pedlar any chance we can.

Might suggest he'll play with some form of hand guard if he trains OK with it?I thought laird was out for 5?
We didn't learn from the Keays hand injury last year? He'll be able to run, but when disposal isn't your 1 wood, are you really at your best when you can't hold the ball normally?Might suggest he'll play with some form of hand guard if he trains OK with it?
Reigning Club Champion Rory Laird will train on Wednesday as he nears a return from a broken hand, possibly as soon as this weekend against Collingwood at the MCG.
Laird broke his right hand in the Community Series game against Port Adelaide on March 5 but avoided surgery and has been training strongly since.
“Rory has been running really well, obviously one of the advantages of a hand injury is you can still run so he’s pushing for selection this week,” Burgess said.
“He will do most of training on Wednesday and if he gets through that unscathed then he will be available this week, and if not this week, then certainly back for Round Three.”
Burgess wasn't in charge last year.We didn't learn from the Keays hand injury last year? He'll be able to run, but when disposal isn't your 1 wood, are you really at your best when you can't hold the ball normally?

It was 4-6. If he plays this week it will be 3 i reckon.I thought laird was out for 5?

******* disgusting that in the write up about this they mention that they are giving sloane every opportunity to prove himself right for the game.Injury list as of Tuesday, March 29
Rory Laird (hand) available
Rory Sloane (adductor) test
Andrew McPherson (hamstring) 1 week
Paul Seedsman (concussion) ongoing
If Murphy's neck is playing up, I wouldn't risk him given he just came back from a neck injury.
Injury List as of April 4
Rory Sloane (adductor) test
Lachlan Murphy (neck) test
Paul Seedsman (concussion) ongoing
Maybe he did really injure his neck... but I can't help thinking that the club is just trolling Port by putting him on the injury list.If Murphy's neck is playing up, I wouldn't risk him given he just came back from a neck injury.
Wouldn't rush Sloane back.
Dawson said that in the process of that "tackle" Mayes arm hit Lachie on the plate he had put in so I'm pretty sure there was no faking in it.Maybe he did really injure his neck... but I can't help thinking that the club is just trolling Port by putting him on the injury list.
Typical Port Adelaide tough guy bullshit.Dawson said that in the process of that "tackle" Mayes arm hit Lachie on the plate he had put in so I'm pretty sure there was no faking in it.
That makes me nervous for Murph going forward.Dawson said that in the process of that "tackle" Mayes arm hit Lachie on the plate he had put in so I'm pretty sure there was no faking in it.
