Yes he did. In fact, early on we were all marveling at his skills.
He blew his calf at the 3 km time trial post Christmas break then got back and had a player fall on his leg playing for Peel in Rd1.

He didn't do a full pre season. Mostly in the gym. Remember waiting for him to appear in the match sims. Didn't play round one for Peel but played NAB against Richmond.

He said 'from the horses mouth' for goodness sake. Are you calling Bennell a liar or a fool?

Do you really think Bennell would tell some random that he was out for another 8 months.The club would crucify him. The horse's mouth could be anybody but it wouldn't be Bennell. Bennell's not the liar or fool.

Do you really think Bennell would tell some random that he was out for another 8 months.

Yes I do. Firstly because Redgum usually only posts useful stuff, and I've no reason to disbelieve him. Secondly because I think a guy caught out doing lines and assaulting people on the Mandurah foreshore whilst an AFL player may not be so precious about having an idle chat against team rules. Especially when the poor bastard is hobbling around on a scooter like a crippled dog with no guarantee he'll ever play again

By "horses mouth" meaning Harley, he was probably taking the piss.

Its not like he done his knee

Nuh, Wrong again sorry. Played round one for Peel getting it 23 times and booting 4 goals 2.

Blew his calf after a few weeks of preseason with us then went into a reduced programme of gym and yoga until he blew it again in that match for Peel.

He had niggles when he was with GC but nothing like he's had after the few weeks of our preseason where it became a serious problem seemingly for the first time.

 

[wild side]

He played against Geelong @ subi in a pre-season game as well.

 

[jedi mind tricks]

He didn't do a full preseason but he did train preseason

 

[Cobbler]

So Bennell is now a horse?

Are you sure salim malik ? I was sure he played Rd1 Peel to get some match practice.

Off to the glue factory.

Off to the glue factory.

This has more meanings then you possibly intended!

Such a shame Ueber is out injured. He could have slotted in these last 4 games and show us what he's got.

Its been pointed out I was wrong . My mistake. But he didn't have a full pre season.

FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAÀAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARK


...I hate losing derbies

 

[Admiral Byng]

Same old. Hope this is the last time we see Mayne, D Pearce and Z Clarke in a Freo jumper

 

[Reynolds Number]

Last night's rodeo was great.

Fyfe should be captain. This statement is especially true if the players dislike him. Some truths need to be told and I don't see him pulling any punches.

 

[FreoRicci]

Thanks Dawson. Second time you rubbed yourself out for the Derby. Needed him badly on Kennedy, yet misses 3 games. Dud

 

[Bicco]

I've cracked the sh1ts with our coaching. Kick out from a point = long bomb. No forward structure, forwards playing past centre. Too many flying for the ball, nobody on the ground roving. Nobody roving to Sandi/Clarke. Kicking sideways constantly.
All of these things and more have been happening all season. It's rediculous. These aren't skill issues, they're directions. We've dished up nothing all season. No change/ no advancement/ no improvement in any facet of the game that I can see.
Utterly shite.

 

[sportsmaniac89]

**** sake Freo.....a game goes for 4 ****ing quarters. Its not that bloody hard to understand

D Pearce can **** off the overpaid spud.
Clarke - **** off
Ibbo - On Notice

Hate losing derbies and hate rolling over like that

What is the point of handball to teammate where you can run pass him in 3-4 second?

He can't win can he? Even when he's out of the team he's a target for vitriol.

To avoid responsibility for the ball/having to make a decision.
