Stuns me how many don't do it when they hit strife.
In any line of work, the first thing you do when something goes wrong is let someone up the food chain know, so that they can start resolving it ASAP. If you stuff around and try and hide stuff until its too late you don't get that support.

Poor kid will as sore as ATM.
Hope he gets well soon.
PS loved the Griffen heart line. Very good.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Re: Tom Boyd has appendix removed just days after joining Western Bulldogs
Wait - is this all a ruse for our medical staff to keep the appendix, so that we have his DNA?
It all makes sense now... the partnership with VU, leading "sports" scientists on site.. we're front loading Boyd's contract so we can add multiple Boyds to our list
This cloning thing will give us a massive advantage.
Three Boyds, 5 Bontis, 6 Macraes, 7 Stringers and a few Libbas and Dahlhauses = guaranteed premierships. No need for a backline, the ball will never get down there.

Glory boy.
Do you think Brett Kirk would have phoned the Swans if his appendix hurt? He probably would have just ripped it out himself and gutted out 30 touches the next day.

I think we should play his appendix in the midfield.

If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

Hush down Jeemak . We don't want Robbo reading this and giving him a theme for his next roll of toilet paper.

Re: Tom Boyd has appendix removed just days after joining Western Bulldogs
Good luck to Tom and his recovery. Now for him to have a great pre season and to come out ready to go by Round 1.
