Also, bit of a stretch here it's pretty interesting to think:

- you guys lost Scully to GWS and got pick 4 as compensation
- picked up Toumpas with pick 4
- the same draft you traded pick 3 for Hogan; would you have traded your only first rounder for a 17 year old if you didn't also have pick 4? Easy to say in retrospect but would've copped some criticism for the next season/two.
- Lachie Plowman was taken with pick 3

so basically you gave up Plowman + Scully for Hogan + Toumpas, and it was all triggered by Scully leaving.

Would do 1 million times again

Imagine if it was Scully + Plowman for Hogan + Wines :P

God, DAMN IT flower YOU TOUMPAS!

*deep breath*

Yeah I've always associated Scully with Hogan, hindsight says that's was a great move by us  :)

Salem re injured his hamstring out for 4-6

Garland broke his hand in the first qtr on the weekend but still played on, probably back after the bye

Vanders out for 3-4

Injury list getting worse and worse

We really can't afford to keep going like this - Have nowhere near the depth of other sides

Not as bad as Brisbanes list of injuries though  :( :(

Brissy have been very hard done by too :(

Saints however only have the one player injured...

[Purple 77]

Devastated about Salem  :'(

Still, on the bright side, we might get a look at ANB. Maybe even Harmes?

Any chance of Stretch coming back soon?

In my opinion... no. He was never really ready in the first place. But he has been doing a good job at VFL.

Yeah, 2016 :)

I think he might get a couple of games this year. Probably no more than the sub though.

[Barra13]

From what I am reading it looks like Roos doesn't want to play ANB just yet so it may give Stretch some more chances?

Garland is also out for a few. Broke his hand in the first quarter on Monday. Played out the rest of the game though which is good signs I think for him staying.

Also Salem re-injured his hammy. Not good news there.

I'd say for this week;

In: Tyson, Grimes
Out: Garland, vandenBerg

Whats happening in the Ruck Dept? Is Spencer a likely 1st pick in future?

I honestly don't know who is Melbourne's preferred ruck at this stage. It seems Gawn is going to get a go for the next few weeks...

I reckon whoever is playing at the last month of the season for us, will be our number one.
