Any update on his injury?

Fenno

Apparenty may be playing SANFL this weekend.

Problems

He's still rookie listed but I noticed Adel have Stevens listed as 'ill - indefinite' so hopefully he'll take his place on the team soon

what posi does he play?

He's a forward/mid MPP $91,000 that's come of an indefinite bicep injury.  Will be back in the SANFL this week as said.

He's a 28yo small forward.  Looked the goods in the NAB cup and was a lock in my team, and i would think a lock in most teams until he injured his bicep.

same size as puopolo, callinan more of a goalkicker, lighter build, whereas poo is more solid build and a very good tackler, but that sort of player.

I will monitor very closely, and most likely include him if and when he plays, and when he is on the bubble.  the thing to consider with callinan, is that having the bicep injury, it's difficult to know how he will come back. 

They say when you tear a bicep off teh bone, players in the past with the same injury have struggled to get the feel back in that arm that they had previously before the injury, so have a good look at him first in his first 2 games back, but on NAB Cup form he looked good.
