You might want to wait and see how they pull up.....

Kosi seemed to think he was fine.

can we stop all this talk about the curse,

good to hear that they pulled off kosi (despite him killing them) when he had tightness, this shows that we are starting to get a sense of where certain players are at

max is a big worry

It shows that who ever is in charge of fitness will not change the fact we have injury prone players.

What do you mean "the curse is back"?

Since when did we get rid of any curse in the first place? :lol:

how many calf injuries has gehrig had though? Not many... so don't think he is prone to leg injuries, no curse at all.

Kozi is fine and Max is the worry with the reccurrent injury.

happy you believe Kosi but with his record he will will at least miss 2 games. And that is my point about injuries doesnt matter who is in charge, we will get injuries due to personnel.

From what i remember one of the first things Misson said when he came over

was that the injuries problem wouldn't be solved in 4 months. He said it would

take up to a few years. I don't know how people expect that just because we

hired some new fitness gurus all our players would be A-Ok.

Well we should have had the right people in place a few years earlier then, shouldn't we.

We cost ourselves a chance at a flag because of an under-resourced injury department.

Now that it's properly resourced, let's hope we get some luck for a couple of years before the resources start to have an effect.


They should only play AFL games now when it's raining. Slow games of footy are so much better to watch.

Exactly right! The quickest cure for stiffness, is to be pulled off. :lol: :shock:

Quite right...but dont you know that you have more credibility of you always find negatinces in every situation :roll:

I reckon Freo (Haselby) and Sydney (Malceski) would happily take a bit of groin soreness and a twinged hammy right now

Too right. Nearly every club has had worse injuries this pre-season.

I reckon Sydney would happily take back Dempster.
