    Good news! Let's hope for an injury free pre-season. Best of luck Brendan.

    Me thinks Murphy has been told that he will get a senior game before the end of the year, just as a teaser to give him a taste of what is possible.

    And I bet it will be the Collingwood game with the club keen to do something different against the Pies to break their current hold over us.

    DST that is pure speculation on your behalf. Murphy didn't play lastweek, don't know why, and was struggling before that. Roos has shown throughout his tenure that he doesn't hand out free games I don't see him starting now

    He is, injuries have just bounced him around a bit.
    I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
    We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

    I'm not sold on him.

    Sure it was 6 months ago, but in the practice match against Melbourne he looked slow and ordinary.

    I have high hopes. Wish him well!

    Hence why I said "me" thinks!

    Murphy: No AFL deal signed yet | Setanta

    "I said last night that there was a contract there for me, not that I had signed," said Murphy. "And I was getting texts from home saying 'congratulations on your new contract'. I didn't know what was going on. If I'm not happy with what's offered well then the likely thing is that I'll be returning home."
    But if you read his column he does say

    Basically, I?ve been offered a new contract, and I?ve decided to take it.

    The guy sounds like a bit of a tool.
