    I'm not saying there wasn't a lead up to the incident haha. I'm saying Duryea doesn't have a leg to stand on because he still whacks the guy. He was bleeding from the forehead, not a chance they let him off with anything less than 3.

      For what it's worth. The players still eligible for the VFL are training tomorrow and Saturday. The Saturday session will have the VFL listed players.
      I don't think I mentioned it but Croft did a lot of running before the game against Frankston.

        Duryea suspension is down to 1 week.

          Just watch the VFL boys going through their paces.
          Croft trained by himself before the players came out and did a power of running
          Cunningham, Dolan and Scott doing a lot of rehab running
          Bevo on the track but not really engaging the players leaving that to Edge.
          Weightman walked a lap or two bouncing the footy.
          There has been a fair bit of match sim and match scenario drills.
          Baker, Treloar, Poulter, Arty and Liam the more noticeable performers.. Crofts and CCP for the Footscray listed players.

            Liam just ran down one of mids. He really hasn't lost his pace.

              Do you think he can go again next season?

                Yes he could, it just seems the coaches might have lost some faith in his ability to judge the ball in the air.

                  Looked the best he had all year last week, was moving really well.

                  I wonder if the Gunston turn around can work in his favour and the fact the pies and cats senior citizens continue to get it done.

                    I’d rather have Liam on list than Coffield and Gardner. Unfortunately I think Liam will be delisted/tapped in shoulder for retirement.
                    Josie :)

                    Our day will come
                    And we'll have everything.
                    We'll share the joy
                    Just like '54 again.

                      Hope he has got another one in him. He was great when in form.

                          With all their AFL listed guys eligible to play... There should be a rule that in this situation the restrictions on the opposition are also relaxed - obviously you don't want Sam Darcy eligible for a VFL prelim, but something like anyone who has played a VFL game through the season is eligible would make it fair.

                            We have Treloar playing. I'd suggest they're pretty relaxed. (Plus don't have Buss and Baker playing ones).
                            I should leave it alone but you're not right

                              Need Buku and Croft to play. Cannot rely on Walker to do it every week. Buku not allowed and Croft might be sore

                                Last game Buku was ineligible to play. Not sure if the rules change when the opposition has an AFL team playing the same week.
