Anyone got a link to James Hird's most recent press conference. Hearing rumors that he may be out for 2 weeks and miss GWS and Melbourne (potential 100's).  I was planning on bringing him in after GWS game.

TL;DR- Need source for hirdy's press conference

EDIT- Think this might be the one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idOY6olFq-4&feature=youtu.be

At around the 2:20ish mark

Pretty keen on this rumour.

Will get on him rd 13.

"Hird says veteran defender Dustin Fletcher (groin) should return next week against Melbourne, while young gun Dyson Heppell will be given possibly two weeks to overcome his knee knock."

Yeah thanks for that. I think that will make him ripe for the picking in rd 13 for morris or ellis. Comes back against sydney also with a highish break even. Can pick up for maybe 390k if im lucky.

heppell is peaking, sell high and buy low i think you should use this opportunity to trade him in for a more seasoned consistent dt performer say scotland?

Can't trade him, my trades are now pre-planned for the run up to & through the MBR's.
Anyone that is (or in Heppell's case should, better, WILL) be playing through the MBR's or fits my structure won't be traded.

HE JUST BETTER BE BACK FOR ROUND 11! (of course, preferably next week).

So what to you guys reckon? Round 11 v Sydney (an important game I would guess) a definite return? Or being prior to their bye, could he get the 'Swanny Extented break'?

"Dyson got a knock to his knee three weeks ago and it's just got sorer and sorer," Hird said.

"We'll give him a week, or maybe even two weeks, to get over that. It's nothing serious but it's an injury that if you don't step on it pretty quickly, can get worse."

By the sounds of that, he's a very good chance of being back by round 11. I'm holding.

Brought him in last week for bugg over broughton  >:( >:(. Hopefully he can play next week.

On the brighter side.... At least there is a reason for his low scores over the last 3 rounds. When he returns back to 100+
