Is there any report at all of the intraclub match? Or have I missed it

Nothing official

Hagdorns article on Rioli mentions that Petrie did well but that's the extent of it

 

[EagleShore]

Karps isnt a small forward

Neither is Hill really, and Lecca isn't a good crumber now either.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Anything from the club on Rioli's injury?

I don't feel like we should have to learn about them from outside sources.

Smokey for 40 goals Petrie

That makes it all the worse...We finally get a true crumber on the list and the hammy goes ping.
No one else of his type really on the list.
I'm hoping Lecca can find some of that old magic.

 

[archiemoses]

Such a significant setback for rioli who was already battling fitness means he probably doesn't play this year.

 

[matt_bas]

Well.. Sheppard doing a hammy would be the worst. Settle.

I beg to differ. With an abundance of defenders we could cover him. With only one small forward I'd go as far as saying Rioli is our 2nd most important player. Now it means Lecca gets a free pass every week

Only info was that there were no major injuries. Thank **** for that.

Rioli the rookie who hasnt played a game is our second most important player? hahaha

 

[matt_bas]

Rioli the rookie who hasnt played a game is our secone most important player? hahaha

Why it so absurd. I stated a reason why. You laughed it of without making any comment that contributed to your argument.

**** sake re Willy

Because it's outlandish and a bit of an insult to Kennedy, Gov, Shuey ect.

Kennedy goes down Darling plays his role, he has in the past and killed it. We also have Petrie as back up. Gov goes we have a B&F winner waiting in the wings. Shuey goes down and we have two brownlow medal winners in our midfield. Rioli goes down and we have to rely on Lecca who isn't a small forward to play his role and have no pressure put on him.

NicNat video of Rioli at gym doesn't look like Rioli is that injured. Might be old or he can still do weights with the injury?

Doesn't look like someone who needs a hamstring operation.

And why would he be in the gym if he did

It's good that we have an informative club who is quick to confirm or refute the news

Oh wait......

Only info was that there were no major injuries. Thank **** for that.

That was second hand info though and nothing from the club

2nd most important behind Masten right?

Take a deep breath buddy. We havent played with a genuine crumber for years. It just means the potential to cover a weakness has had a set back. The chances of Willie playing in the first half of the year were slim at best.

Wish we had drafted liam Ryan as well

Right here and now is absolutely inflaming the issue of the closed intraclub from earlier in the week.

Willie injured himself a couple of days ago, before the intraclub, and they STILL haven't told us anything about the match or the injury

Lucky there's plenty of clouds outside today for you to yell at.

Yeah agree, think everyone just got over excited by the site of a Big Willie.

I can't remember the last time a 3 round draft pick had significant impact, or was even best 22 for the majority of the season in his rookie year.

As a mature aged recruit you'd be better comparing him to some of the Barlow types who came in and had an immediate positive impact for their clubs.
