The Z-Man is back too!!!!!! He is probably past it though, too injury proned and you can't survive as an injury ravaged rookie.
What's happened to Davo? Injured/Rested. I thuoght he'd be a big chance to play vs. Sydney if they give Rusling a rest.

Jason Cloke isn't that bad at Willy, he is always going to be a 3rd tall defender and him and Walker being the only 2 key defenders sucks and they have no help at all in terms of numbers at the contest. Most reports are skewed on how many jason got kicked on him as he often has to peel off to try to get to the contest, he may not reach the contest in time but end up being the man on the mark. Like last week vs. Geelong his oponent had a queit day but there were a few times when he tried to be the 3rd man up but was too late in some contests with McCarthy vs. Walker.

Also does anyone know the rules regarding the break and whether we would be able to bring some Collingwood players to play the one game for Willy, such as Fraser who is struggling with fitness, Rusling who needs game time, Rowe who also would like a full run, for this game and bring them back vs. Sydney?

Believe Davo now has a groin injury, Guy Richards a hip injury.

Let's hope Zane can somehow manage to put together a decent second half to the season.

I somewhere that if a player played for Collingwood last week he is not eligable to play for Willy this week.

I'm beginning to wonder about these two and their constant injuries. It's like how do they injure when they rarely get to play, or perhaps due to all the injuries, they just can't get match fitness and then injure themselves again trying.

I think Billy M may be starting to hit his straps (seriously). I'd persist with him, as he is an obvous talent.

I'd keep them on the list. Both are talents, and both deserve a bit of faith after all their injuries. Stretch could be a gun ruckman if we persist.

While it's a start, let's not get too far ahead of ourselves... It was only VFL 2nds!!

Hope you're right though Johnno.
