Rubbish. Poor troll even for you.
Completely different players
Tall forward? Or do you mean different as in one is good and one sucks?

Sorry to tell you but Schache will not make it as an AFL player. If we get Bruce that's his career over.

Poor troll is poor
Dude...sometimes your trolls are well hidden, sometimes not. But this one has me buggered. Are you taking the pi**?Sorry to tell you but Schache will not make it as an AFL player. If we get Bruce that's his career over.
Even better with Bruce beside himBtw I am absolutely stoked with the Naughty news. Naughty has the potential to be the best forward in the comp.
If it is not an ACL I will personally propose to Scrag mid morning Monday
Serious question. Sorry if I am a bit slow but I don't understand the last sentence. Are you saying the news isn't as good as we think? Also what is the prognosis for an LCL? Three months off? No surgery?An LCL is an important ligament, providing important stability (from side impact) through the knee. One of the critical 4 ligaments in which damage to the LCL is not often seen.
Could be surgery depending how bad. At worst probably 3 month injury so won't miss any gamesSerious question. Sorry if I am a bit slow but I don't understand the last sentence. Are you saying the news isn't as good as we think? Also what is the prognosis for an LCL? Three months off? No surgery?

We can absolutely play Schache, Naughton and Bruce.

I've heard an LCL can be anywhere between 6 weeks and 3 months, depending on severity and I guess surgery. He'll miss some pre-season but hopefully not a huge chunk of it.Serious question.

I think it’s fair to make that call Scrag. I think a few won’t think he’ll make it. I’m guessing with Naughton, Bruce, Schache, Dale, Lloyd, Greene, West, Dickson, it will be tough for spots next year. We know Dale and Schache are good kicks, but can they do enough to keep a spot next year? Time will tell. At least we’ve finally got a few options in our forward line!Not trolling. I really just don't rate Schache. He kicks a few opportunistic goals but that's it. I don't think he's good enough for AFL. Only reason he gets games is because we need a tall forward who can at least bring the ball to ground. If we had a better one I don't think Schache gets a game. It's not that we can't play three talls, it's just that we wouldn't if one of them is Schache. I keep hearing on this board that he plays some special role that no other forward can play but I struggle to believe it.
I don’t think it’s something you ever want to coach out of a player. To do what he does is a god given talent. It was just a freak landing. It’s like telling Jeremy Howe to stop going for speccies in fear of an injury.Very good news, but at the same time, I think there's something for Naughton to learn from this.
He jumps high in the air for his marks, and likes to land on his feet, which is always a bit risky. In the back of my mind I was kind of expecting something like this to happen one day. I hope he starts learning to take more marks on the lead, or in one-on-one strength battles.
Speccies aren't as big of a risk because the player usually lands on his back or side. They're also significantly less frequent than Naughton's jumping for marks and landing on his feet. Obviously we'd still want to keep it in his arsenal, but maybe tone it down a bit and expand his all-round marking game.I don’t think it’s something you ever want to coach out of a player.

So I take it you weren't praying for Toby's nuts.Hallelujah! This is the first time that I've ever prayed for a particular part of a player's body. Next will be prayers for Timmy's weight. (It can't hurt.)
