Schneider out for 4. Armo, Fisher back?

[FQF]

Schneider is suffering from a "baffling" foot infection that will take 4 weeks.

Strangely, the Triple M say that Fisher will be back this week, as will Armo.

Richo said in his press conference today that Fisher will do match simulation this week and probably play VFL next week.

And then get re injured!

[GRAMophone]

Also Webster available for consideration this week

[White Winmar]

Is it the end for Schneiderman? Discuss.

I'm guessing its too early for pie jokes?

Not the end of the end - but maybe the beginning of the end.

You would think him and the club would start having a chat about whether he wants to push on with another pre-season and another full season next year - or have a farewell match and then go and play some country footy with his mates next year and have a few cans and not have to go to boring team meetings etc...

[Bluthy]

So schneiders out because of his forearm and fisher has done his back? We can't take a trick!

I have heard he has the best brain at the club for footy type things. Just because he looks like he carrys a bit of puppy fat you shouldnt assume that he even wants to do that. He may want to coach in the AFL like Stewart Dew.

It has been painful to watch Schneider in last few weeks. Probably best he gets some respite and hopefully can get his match fitness back so he can end his career on a relatively good note.

yes plugger - you know the players the best. You are insider and connected to the club. You tell us every 5 minutes. So whatever makes you feel good.

Its really a peripheral issue - im pretty sure the discussion was about whether he will play or not next year - not what he will do if he doesnt. stay on topic please. if u want to talk about his future coaching career start a separate thread on it.

I was making the point that playing on with a half-baked mind or body may not be best for both parties.

Con show me one post where i have said that. i heard that on the radio from a Saints player I just cant remember who. I suggest you stop saying I am an insider or i may have to take some action against you for baiting. I have no repeat no inside knowledge and never had. Now please have a sensible conversation about these issues. And i said what i said about Schneider because the way I read your post you were having a go at him. I would suggest he is struggling through injury and not because he may be better suited having a beer with mates after footy. By the way the topic is about Schneider being out for 4 weeks not his retirement so please dont tell me to stick on topic when you didnt either.

Could this mysterious foot infection be the reason for general poor kicking with others in the team?

[White Winmar]

Another foot injury. We desperately need a podiatrist. A really good one.

According to Wikia an "An Acre is equivalent to 43,560 square feet" so I'm blaming Blake for squaring everyone's feet. He needs to convert to metric immediately

Aaaaahhhh Bluthy youse is at it again............. good one

[BigMart]

Fisher will return via the VFL surely?!

Armo and Jimmy are required.... Jimmy might be considered .... Instead of Simpkin

This isn't funny Loris. It would be easy to assume I've gone a little mad in despair of where our club is at (and yes in protest I have gone off my meds until we win another game) but look at the facts:

-- We bring in a guy called Billings and suddenly the club is $10 million in debt
-- We bring in a guy called Hickey and the club has an outbreak of skin infections (and we have been told the group has bonded very closely)
-- We bring in a guy called Maverick and after flying high early we've plummeted to earth like an over cocky fighter pilot haunted by the sullied legacy of his dead father
-- We bring in a guy called Savage and our players this year have attacked the ball....er...forget that one...
-- Armo is in the leadership group and Eli goes down yelling "My ARM---OOOOOOHHHHHHHH"
-- Not to mention our untried greek rookie Dimitri Dunnahammy

There is young kid we really need to keep an eye on for next years draft. He doesn't have any stand out skills but I have this weird feeling he is so important for the future of our club. His name is: Peter Foroncetheballwillbounceourf*&kingwayinacriticalmomentofthegrandfinalandwewillfinallywinthatsecondf*&kingpremiership.

It's a funny name I know - I think its Czechoslovakian.

Well, there's our problem right there..., seems he should be coaching us, not playing!

[BigMart]

I think he should be our 'Gia'

His footy brain is evident when he plays, he get in front of the footy and is able to read it coming fwd ... Much harder than reading from defence.

His creativity has always been evident, he rarely wastes a touch.

Dont need a doctor to tell you you've got gout. Give him some indicid and he'll play next week.

[Jacks Back]

What is it with our club and infections? Do we need a new doc? Maybe Doc Reid will be available soon.

I think old Dick Wicks still has his copper magnet snake oil shoes. We could get some of our boys down to training in those grey velcro grandpa shoes otherwise.


On the radio someone blamed the seaford surface for the raft of foot injuries- as if we needed more reasons to hate it. Imagine how hard it is hobbling 13 km to get coffee.
