Past #32 Blake Leidler

[caesar88]

Not on injured list, not in reserves line-up

All very strange.
Not even listed out with 'personal issues'.

I was operating under the assumption that if he was missing footy due to personal reasons, that that wouldn't be explicitly stated anywhere.

But then a quick search of his name on social media showed he was at a footy clinic with Adams a week ago.

So whatever the cause is, it hasn't led to him taking time away from the club. You just hope it's nothing bad/serious, whatever it is.

Might be allergic to grass or maybe blisters from his new boots.

This is seriously bizarre.

Where IS Blake Leidler???

Where IS Blake Leidler???

Is he not even good enough for VFL?

 

[Kiama Chris]

The absence of any information on Leidler is quite concerning. Hard not to jump to conclusions.

Another player is saying present when his name is called out at roll call?

 

[SeanM]

He might just be sick. They don't usually report that in the injury updates.

Good suggestion. However being "sick" doesn't generally keep you out this long (which is probably why they don't usually bother including it in injury reports - didn't they tell us when Heeney had glandular fever and was out of the game for a while?).

 

[dosser]

Maybe he is a fake name and we are giving the Chad his pay?

 

[giantsully]

This is exactly why the █████ administration have imposed their "no WFH" mandate - for all we know, this bloke is making $$$ not playing for a country team.

We need to shut down the entire AFL so that we can say we fixed it.

Waiting for the Where's Wally photos ...

 

[joeykanga]

Maybe Horse was allowed a personal assistant and he chose Blake. He'll be back when that job allows him some free time

Here he is SwansProudly : Wes Walley. He doesn't look a lot like Blake Leidler. But he could be a good pick up for some club at the draft this year.

Wearing a Swan on his jumper but barracks for West Coast unfortunately.

Preseason Q&A: Wes Walley (Subiaco)

Subiaco forward Wes Walley catches the eye with his speed and goal sense. We spoke to the West Coast NGA member at preseason testing.

The curious case of Blake Leidler

No but seriously hope he is okay

WCE NGA tied as well I believe but surely at some point he comes to Sydney for the jokes

SO... still nothing on his whereabouts...

 

[dosser]

When I was at high school there was a kid whose name appeared on the roll for the very first day but his parents must have decided on a different school so he never showed up. His name appeared on the roll every year for a few years after that and his name was used whenever you got into trouble and had to give your name to a teacher.

I can't remember if it was 'Blake Leidler', though.

 

[Adnico26Parker]

Good to see him back for the VFL game tomorrow

Thats good hoping to see flashes of something

 

[Adnico26Parker]

Best of luck to him, hope he gets a chance somewhere

 

[Neverwas]

Really disappointed in the club for not managing the list better in order to keep him. He is senior material.

 

[SeanM]

I thought Leidler did more than enough to get another year on the rookie list. Did ok as a defender and as a forward.

I guess they are trying to open up list spots by shifting players to the rookie list.

 

[Callipygian]

I liked what I saw from Leidler. Didn't do too much wrong if you ask me. However, I'm interpreting this in a positive light - we're making way for some other players that we think will be even better (possibly Academy).

Very best wishes for your future Blake!
