GRIFFIN is still a few weeks from resuming full training.

If Ballantyne doesn't play round 1 it is Crozier that will take his spot. Crozier is well ahead of Duffy IMO

Don't think anyone will argue with that, just that he needs to have his name thrown around at least when discussing small forwards. Ross seems to be a fan of his and we all remember he was taken relatively high in the ND, if he can't at least be in contention there's no point to him.

Simmofreo , fyfe isn't playing

 

[Simmofreo]

Told you. I'm not stupid. He has an issue that I think will haunt us for a while. No one believed me

 

[Simmofreo]

Does anyone believe me yet that we may have a problem here. Fyfe is our Best and Fairest and key to our premiership hopes bar none

I think we don't want to risk him if he isn't 100% for a practice match. Chillax dude.

 

[Simmofreo]

All good. I will share the optimism. Are there many people out there ? How does the crowd look ?

One thing about Freo since Lyon joined is that they have been transparent about injuries. See Gumbleton this year and in particular Fyfe and Sandilands last year. If he had anything more than a niggle or strain, I'm confident that they would be on the front foot about it.

Simmo you realise it's a practice match right? In all likelihood Fyfe has a small niggle but the fact that he is being rested from this match doesn't suggest anything more than a precaution.

Not at the expense of aggravating an injury that may mean missing weeks of the season proper. Not worth it.
