Any inside news regarding the great man??

Surely he has to test out his hamstring sooner rather than later, to see if it will stand up to a game of footy.

Could we see a surprise inclusion this week or next??

He said about a week ago on SEN radio that if he didn't have any hiccups he would be three weeks away. So he shouldn't be to much longer.
 
I think we should bring him back the Cats, imagine that, would be fully unexpected by the Cats, cause somewhat of a panic perhaps?

You make it sound as though the club are waiting for a good game to bring him in... as if we have planned to have our Captain become a somewhat assistant coach from the sidelines this year.

If that's perception that's ok. What I'm saying is that although we didn't intend to have him out, like it or lump it we do, so we could at least use him in our favour and spring him into the side when least expected.
 
I'm just worried Buckley is going to come in and last 10mins on his hammy again.... Let's face it, if it goes again I doubt we'd see him return (which is a horrible thing to say!)

If he was back a bit earlier in the year and we did well in the finals, I reckon he would have played on next year, maybe as a lazy forward. At this rate though, I think he'll call it stumps at the end of the year, no matter what we do in finals, as it looks like his body just isn't up to it nowdays. BIG shame.

Going to be a few big retirements at the end of this year.

Easy solution. Play him in the Granny.
 
save him for the finals, he can win the GF for us kicking 11 and winning a norm smith, then next year he will be our assistant and when MM retires bucks for coach:D:thumbsu:
