[Falchoon]

So now the question is

are St Kilda better without Riewoldt?

 

[McOrist]

Who?? .....oh you mean Jack's cousin!

 

[Macca18]

Thanks for this information.

It was onlyannounced on Monday that he was going to play...

 

[jayjones1]

Good. The injuries to Riewoldt and Brown have been the biggest disappointments so far this season imo.

 

[Byron_Clanger]

Stupid choice to play him at the hardest surface in the AFL

Everyone's Dream Team probably agrees with you as well.

 

[hawks_time]

Bigger news: Gibson is back.

 

[absy]

Should have waited to bring him back until they played us again but good to see him back.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Unbelievable byt he saints in my opinion.

Flying Nick up north for the game, coming back from a serious injury.

They would have been much better to send him to Sandringham for the week

Any relation to Jack at Richmond?

Not necessarily, he'd either be returning at the Gabba or at Etihad and both grounds are suspect so it would going to be a risk either way in terms of surface. Ultimately, the positive side thinks that if he can get through the Gabba game then he should be right on any surface he'll be playing on in the future. Baptism of fire in a sense.

After all, there's still a chance he's going up for a run on it and if his reaction is suspect he'll be a late withdrawal.

 

[Murraj1966]

Rooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

The best player is back!

 

[The Fireman]

Back a lot sooner than some very ordinary supporters on here had hoped.
Great news for the real fans

I just think it is a lil stupid to plonk him on a plane for 2 hours and then (maybe) playing him on a very dodgey ground

The clubs best off field personal are in Qld for the game so its best to play him with them around to monitor him.

Hodgepodge wouldn't agree with you there.

 

[mattys123]

Steele Sidebottom is back too, well that's as important news as Riewoldt.

STKILDA BOARD, would have been the correct response for anyone here though.

 

[mysainters]

hahaha to the Jack jokes

I agree with the other poster, having the likes of J Brown and Roo out aren't good for footy.

As for Roo returning on the hard Gabba surface, is Etihad deemed any less of a risk...we have something like 7 games there on the run home.

 

[Rors]

Nice.... is Gram back too? Hope so, some very handy 'ins'!
