    Wow, sucks (I'd add an angry face but I seem to only have a Quick Reply option and don't see an emoticon option)

    That's really really @@@@ news. Was looking good as well. Hope he gets back by round 8 or so.

    Gee, that's terrible news.

    Birdy has obviously worked hard on his fitness over the off season because if anything was going to hold him back as a bona fide AFL star it would be he tends to be on the rotund side.

    A foot injury will not help him at all

    The news has been all good lately. Something had to come along.

    I am genuinely upset about this. Poor Birdy. Foot stress fractures can be really nasty too.
    He had observed that people who did lie were, on the whole, more resourceful and ambitious and successful than people who did not lie.

    That's awful. At the game at BOP (I love that acronym) my father and I were discussing how fit he was looking and he really seemed ready to go for the season. Booo!
    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

    If Twitter is a reliable source, that's terrible news for Bird and bad news for the team. He was among our best last weekend and promised to be like that for the season. I wish him patience and a swift recovery.
    He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)
