Why did Mcleod play?

I actually think that Macca can go on for another couple of years - he showed early in the season how valuable his run & quick direct rebound was.

I saw his knee the morning after the Brisbane game.... it was the size of a rock melon. I would think that there is only so many "clean outs" you can have before a full replacement is required - certainly for any quality of life post footy. I selfishly want him to go on for another year... I am just not convinced his body is going to be able to.

Sorry I did mean to add "providing that his knees are ok"

Anyway, i'll keep the fingers crossed.

Well the positive is that last weekend the knees were both the same size and looked A.OK. I'll be crossing fingers with you too!
