HMac an outside chance to play this week, only bruising but will likely only miss 1...

 

[PIGSTi]

McEvoy last week, so I trade in HMac.....................doh! He better play this week! Otherwise that will be 2 trades absolutely wasted in my rucks!

North versus Port Adelaide? Goldstein and Petrie available? I'd be saying there's no chance of McIntosh playing.

Doc Larkins said post afl game show that Hmac is likely to miss 2-3 weeks so I would doubt he would return this weekend. Hopefully next.

At least they should be back in a couple of weeks. I'm hanging onto them for the timebeing.

Doc Larkins is wrong.

 

[Lemma]

I don't like Doc Larkins, but surely you're not overruling a medical professional?

 

[Forward Press]

Why would Doc Larkins know more than North's own director of medical services?

Unless I suppose they are deliberately misleading us...

 

[mmmdoughnuts]

Despite what doc says, I saw Hmac limping on tv yesterday so if he is up for round 8, ill become a North supporter for life.

 

[Dwight Schrute]

Mumford, Sandilands and now Hmac, surely I have to have some luck, any chance of Redden or Big O playing?

I dont understand everyones trust with Doc Larkins diagnosis, he doesnt actually assess the player, he is just going off the tv footage. Sure he knows a lot about sports injuries so can make great predictions, but they are just predictions.

 

[SaintsSeptember]

FFS he say's "It looks like a ***** injury" "If it is it will normally take XXXXXX weeks to heal"
Anyone who thinks he knows more that the doctors who see the actual scans and soforth is delusional.

 

[earlyreflections]

Anyone heard any news on when Shane Mumford might be coming back?

I still got him on my bench, thinking about keeping him for the bye rounds if he's due back then.

 

[CaptScott]

For those few interested (like me), Swallow may be out for 6 weeks plus

This made me laugh..

Trade

At the start of the year Richmond's Brandon Ellis [DEF, $211,900] and Melbourne's James Magner [MID, $281,900] were two of the most popular choices.

They both underwent significant price rises after their first couple of games.

But now, they have stalled and may have reached their ceiling.

Gold Coast's Kyal Horsley [MID, $215,800] could free up some significant cash for Magner.

Keep an eye too on North Melbourne youngster Brad McKenzie [MID, $103,200], who is highly regarded for his kicking.

In defence, Geelong's Billie Smedts [DEF, $140,000] could be an option for Ellis.

Dr DT is a complete moron. How is 66k a significant amount? And why would you trade Magner for Horsely a week late?

This guy is a phony.

Albert Lord is the only man with a PhD in DT.

 

[skeme]

Any ideas on which GWS rookies are likely to be rested?

Shiel and Bugg maybe?

 

[Falchoon]

Because you potentially made a mistake last week does not necessarily mean it's a mistake to pick up Horsley this week.

At an average of 106 and a price of 44 he's still a very good pick up.

Good Call! D.Smith also rested

No McDonald either.

Also missing from GWS is Sumner (Foot) and Adam Kennedy (Shoulder)

Anyone know how long Kennedy is going to be out for?

 

[SaintsSeptember]

With Cornes named as a forward, does that mean he's likely to actually play forward (= major bummer ) ?

I'm looking at trading Magner for Horsley this week. I wasn't able to do it last week as I had to trade Goodes and McEvoy due to injury.

Pissed off that I missed out on the additional cash by not trading him last week but it's better late then never and 66k will still be handy.

 

[DTpunter]

For those with Robinson i have concerns over him playing this week. Wont surprise me if he misses.
