Richmond utility Ricky Petterd and first-year Tiger Kane Lambert are expected to miss an extended period of time out of the game through injury, stemming from last Saturday’s loss to the Western Bulldogs at the MCG.

Both will require surgery this week - Petterd to address a foot injury which will see him out for at least three months, and Lambert for a damaged shoulder which is expected to sideline him for 6-8 weeks.[\quote]

and Conca 2-3

Lids might miss one more too

same as Shed

Not good for them...but maybe it will force knights back in side...lets hope..

If Petterd could have the 9 iron golf club that is permanent attached to his foot removed during this surgery it might enable him to deliver a pass that doesn't bring rain.

I'd prefer Arnott , we should elevate one of them , if only for cover untill Conca gets up and cracking .

And some like Arnot so why do you choose Thomas?

 

[tropicaltiger]

yep, petts looked proppy in the second half, lambert very early, as the vloss
bulldogs running us ragged made easier, minor excuse for our shocking performance.

Haven't you heard about his skin folds ?

 

[Tiger Claw]

Interesting comment by Dimma post the Carlton game as to the hardness of the ground due to switching from cricket to AFL. Lids and Edwards?

They are awesome to all effect however I don't rate his disposal. Maybe he has other attributes other than skinfolds over Arnot. Couldn't say just interested in the difference of players.

Didn't see any of this coming , all the best to the lads, elevate Thomas

 

[DrMike]

Petterd has a Lisfranc Injury:

Jayden Short's been pretty good in the VFL hasn't he? Might be worth going for..

Great Pmsl

Elevate Castagna and play the kid . We have so many forwards that need to be playing and don't need to ad to them with Arnott. Thomas is simply not an option and thank god he is injured.

 

[tunksy]

unfortunate for the blokes. petered gone at end of year imo. lambert thus far hasnt shown a heap but retain on the rookie list. got time before we declare ricky a LTI so see who performs best id lean towards arnot as the forward pressure player/inside mid. or short who has shown some things
