DANG!!

That means Grimes out and Grima or Pearce in for me in SC.
I traded Grimes to Hodge 3 weeks ago in DT; a masterstroke if I may say so myself!  ;D

"Rising Star Jack Grimes hyperextended his back after landing awkwardly from a marking contest last week and will miss 1-2 weeks"

Ive kinda got a selection dilemma. wanted to upgrade McLeod to Goddard this week, but now with Grimes in trouble, Im not so sure. Im busting my balls to get in the finals and i need a full-strength team so this one hurts.

AFL Fantasy Watch: Bad teams do provide options for fantasy teams, Melbourne may help fantasy teams with two new players a chance to play this round, with low fantasy prices. Grimes may only miss a week, Jamar will be out a few more.

No whispers ATM so it's a waiting game till Thursday

MELBOURNE pair Brock McLean and Jack Grimes are among the players coach Dean Bailey will be eyeing at tomorrow's main training session before selecting his side to face Richmond this weekend.

However exciting forward Liam Jurrah could be forced to miss Sunday's MCG clash as the rigours of his first year of AFL football begin to take their toll.
