completely forgot about WB on my club update
note S Darley also set to return

I've updated the list on the previous page, seemed better to have it all in the one place

Nice work Adam. Will be interesting to see who comes in for Sloane

no one set to return for Adelaide this week, so maybe a full game for that M Crouch guy that came on for him?

Possibly or Kerridge

Kedge for sure

Listening to Buckley on the ABC last weekend, i think Freeman was a fair way away form cracking the AFL again

Well he's going in for Hammy surgery so it'll be a while.



Also Saad and Thompson confirmed outs this weekend with Lynch in doubt.
Its a hammy for Saad

A few GC players were due to breaking club rules though, thats their own fault.

The Lions also struggling with players.

If Glenn is out then i get to upgrade one payer this week instead of double downgrade

[jvalles69]

With Saad out I might have to trade him out...hopefully Glenn is ok, the fact he "limped off" is better than "carried off".  ???

[pommyadam]

have updated the list of pg2 with all the rd7 information

J Glenn was not mentioned on the GC injury update re: Limping from training earlier, did discuss Tues training (of Prestia) in that update
