Review Silence at the AO as Cats defeat PA by 12 points

AFL.com.au saying up to a month.
That'd mean our first final. The Addy's timeline would be in the finals.

So maybe Mr Noobie's mail wasn't too far off.

If only he hadn't said it was being reported in the press (it wasn't) and by Tom Brown (it wasn't).

He / she seems to have been on the money.

Suggests their post was deserving of a little more respect.

He seemed to be a step ahead of the press, who are reporting it now.

The Tom Brown reference was a return serve of ridicule I think, though not sure how TB actually came into it.......

Personally I wait for official club news and team sheets before concluding anything. If Stanley ends up missing at least a month, only then would it have been "spot on".

After all CS post game speculation was "medium term" so it'd be just as valid for "CatLover#3995" to come in and give the timeline based on that.

Don't necessarily disagree, but still think a new poster could've been treated with a little more respect.

Not hard to politely ask for evidence, rather than mock the claim outright.

Anyhow, it's all a bit odd. Scott, who normally says 'we'll wait for scans and defer to the doctors', immediately and confidently knew it was a 'medium term' injury.

Taylor trotted out the exact same term today too........

On the other hand, said poster seemed to have an adequate riposte and we don't want to fall into that good ol' world where people cry over spilt milk, especially on the behalf of others.

I understand speculation is the name of the game on footy forums but I personally don't fret until we get the official verdict. And even then, not really until the teams are announced as surprise outcomes can happen late.

No tears here.

I prefer to wait for verified information too, but still find it interesting to hear what others believe they know.

Agreed. One thing is for sure, it isn't Geelong without injury issues where nobody knows what's going on! Let's just hope they don't derail another finals series because that trend hasn't helped.

I was being sarcastic, as the champ went the man. Being on this forum for too long he doesnt know how to use ignore.
The stanley situation has layers.

You should wait for the official word. Balme would have loved supporters like you, for a week or two

You my friend are wise.

TB was as relevant as the abuse from the fossil

It just wouldn't be the GFC if we knew what was going on!

Thanking you for the sincere statement and genuine compliment.

Any word on Danger's calves or Kolo's cognitive function?

I'm positive he does.

Layers....... sounds intriguing.

I’ll believe it when I see it.

 

[catempire]

Ha! Some are still taking “medium term” like it’s not used as a term of absolute obfuscation by the club? Wowee.

I'm sensing some bad blood.....are you entirely 'new' here??

No man ever steps in the same river twice, for its not the same river and he's not the same man.

Just one small matter...please refrain from the term "champ"...its derogatory and inflammatory and has not been welcome on this Board for a long time.

Thanks.
