If we play in the GF: Lenny sub???

Post: # 1128123Post saintspremiers »

Hello Premiership Dreamers.

IF we make the GF, should we take a punt on Lenny as the sub?

I reckon it would be a miracle if we made the Prelims, but I know there are a few dreamers on here, so let's discuss it.

Clearly, he won't be 100% in 5 weeks time, but may have enough in the tank for a sub role, question is could it derail 2012 for him?

Massive roll of the dice.

Its no roll of the dice. His knee is no where near ready. We would need approximately 13 draws and then he could be right.

He said on The Game Plan that he is no chance of returning this year, even if we do somehow make it into the Grand Final!

who in their right mind could possibly be thinking of the Grand Final.
We beat North Melbourne, that is all. Don't get too carried away.

After whats happened to Staker and others after the LARS surgery, I'm glad Lenny went for the traditional surgery.

Someone on here may know, is Lenny running, I wouldnt imagine he'd be anywhere near full training yet.

Lenny said about a week ago that was up to jog a lap-walk a lap stage. That is a bloody long way from being ready for a game. For mine, not a snowflake's chance in hell of getting back this year, unfortunately !!


NEW scarf signature (hopefully with correct spelling) will be here as soon as it arrives !!

Has he been doing that for a month? That must be bloody frustrating and boring!!

In his own words... "If the Grand Final was in December then I would be available to play"

Said that at the sponsors function the other week....

I don't think we'll see Lenny or Jimmy in senior form until the middle of next season

Lenny would be aiming at Round 1 and Jimmy, although injured a fair bit later, is said to be ahead of him in his recovery.

Hopefully we won't be waiting as long as your post suggests :)

How could Gwilt be ahead of Lenny already? The guy had ACL surgery the week after the Eagles game, around 4 months after Lenny. :shock:

Comparitively you have a much greater chance of winning Tattslotto

Thats really shooting for the stars


Another opportunity awaits!

Wasnt aware Lenny was only half running. I just assumed this long into recovery he'd be doing full laps.

And no, Spanner, I haven't done an ACL. I'm sure everyone else on the forum has though :roll:

How many blokes in the current Saints line-up have done ACL's?

Anyway, whilst the odds are high, we're still in the race to make the 2011 GF. The sky's the limit I say. I bet our blokes aren't thinking they can't make it.


When they created LENNY HAYES (in the shadow of Harvs) they forgot to break the mold (again)- hence the Supremely Incredible Jack Steven!!

There is more chance of Eddie McGuire getting caught for having inappropriate relations with a chicken.
