Bode and Shirley to miss

[Crow Envy]

Adelaide will be without Robert Shirley and Matthew Bode for another week.

And Ben Rutten (corked calf), Jason Porplyzia (corked thigh) and Nathan van Berlo (hamstring tightness) all were kept out of Wednesday evening’s main training session but are hopeful of playing against Sydney at AAMI Stadium on Saturday night.

Shirley, who has a broken hand, is still restricted by his injury and therefore will not be risked in full training. And Bode, a late withdrawal from Saturday’s Showdown because of a sore hip and glute, is also not ready to return to competitive training.

Physical performance manager Stephen Schwerdt said Rutten, Porplyzia and van Berlo should be ready to train on Friday morning.

“We will give them as much time as possible to get themselves right,” he said. “But ideally they will train on Friday and then we can see how they are going after that.”

Jeez, out for two weeks with "general soreness"

Anyone else get a bad, parvovirus feeling about this one?

This means we will go in unchanged IMHO.

Maintain the rage against the machine that is Sydney.
Heck if we approach the game like we have in th past two weeks we will prevail.

As well as BV played last week ( and he did OK ) he has a big chance to cement a spot if there are no changes this week.

Is he good enough to do it?
What sort of stats would leave him in the side to face Freo the next week?

This is BV's big chance imo. I'm backing him with 100% faith.

Also it's just occurred to me....is the door just slightly ajar for one Luke Jericho?
