Has anyone still got him?

valkorum · April 17, 2010, 04:31:52 AM

He still has the be named in the team and not as an emg. He has played 2 half games in the reserves and 2 full games in the league side.

I would say he is a good chance to play this weekend. It is round 5 and all the comments from Harvey from pre-season to now have indicated of a round 5 return. He didnt play a game at all last weekend (no WAFL game) which I think is giving him a rest before his return this weekend.

Should be a nice game for him to ease in to before the derby and a spell of games in short turnarounds

Rd 6: (02/05/10) vs Eagles (Subiaco - Eagles home game)
Rd 7: (08/05/10) vs Brisbane (Gabba)
Rd 8: (14/05/10) vs Collingwood (Subiaco)
Rd 9: (22/05/10) Sydney (SCG)

I'd expect him to be named tonight as well. Will be good to see him back. Saw him out in Perth in the off season and he looks a lot bigger. Goodluck to him, should be a handy asset to Freo and there chances of making the finals.

I think he will be named for this game, get him an 'easier' game against the Tiges this week in preperation for the Derby next week which is always a tough contest. I would expect about 60% - 70% TOG if he does play this week.

ELLsendon · April 24, 2010, 02:31:25 AM

Spot on.

valkorum · April 24, 2010, 04:12:00 AM

He is named in the squad again, have to wait till later today to get the finalised 22

ELLsendon · April 24, 2010, 04:27:42 AM

Same as Silvagni.

Will Silvagni Play

valkorum · April 24, 2010, 05:12:32 AM

Wasnt Silvagni elevated because of Grover's LTI. When Grover comes back I would think that Silvagni goes back to the rookie list.

ELLsendon · April 24, 2010, 05:34:24 AM

Probably Trade Him By Then.

ELLsendon · April 24, 2010, 05:36:01 AM

Wait, when is Grover going to return?

valkorum · April 24, 2010, 06:15:26 AM

An LTI is at least 8 weeks minimum so it couldnt be any earlier than round 9 - plenty of time for Silvagni to develop some cash.

I could be wrong about Silvagni being upgraded for the LTI of Grover.

Palmer named an emergency now.
