Injury Nathan Brown

[Shellz]

Nath has dislocated his shoulder in the first quarter yesterday and will be out for at least a month.

 

[Quicky]

Terrible news for him just as he was finding form.

Poor Rambo

So where do our KPP stocks lie now? It appears Goldsack may get more opportunities now or maybe even Blight.

Terrible news for him just as he was finding form.

Yeah It's Terrible as our Stock for KPDers are not looking as good as Jack Carter did hie Ankle/Knee as well

So if Presti goes down, how are we going to plug the hole? Leroy down back, or bring Goldsack in and hope to god Maxy can start playing on his man better? This blows.

It really depends who we are playing. You can switch it around with Goldsack if we're playing a forwarline that doesn't have bulky, body searching forward.

Let's say Nathan is out for 4-5 weeks, and needs another 1-2 games in the VFL, then this is what we face if we lost Presti or Reid.

Melbourne; No real tall forwards, Brown wasn't going to play anyway.
Sydney; Bradhsaw (if fit), Goodes and White. If Bradshaw plays, maybe Goldsack or Harry on Goodes.
WCE: It's West Coast in Melbourne, it doesn't matter.
Port Adelaide; No tall forwards to speak of.
Stkilda; Riewoldt may be back, and the big girl Kosi will play also (we hope).

It would be "nice" to have Nathan back as an option by the Stkilda game, which gives him 5 weeks to return to being fit enough to play senior football.

We simply don't need Brown over the next 5 weeks, with the Sydney game the only real concern as far as tall forwards go.

As long as Presti and Reid get through the Melbourne game, we will be right until the StKilda game.
