    Had a chat to someone in the know at Kippax yesterday, they said that Tippett was carrying an injury into the game and was touch and go (Lamb would have replaced him) but Tippett himself gave the A-OK just before game time.

    wolf

    as far as I am aware after listening to Adam Goodes describe his injury - he has torn his meniscus on the other leg ie not the same leg he tore his meniscus originally

    You can have half of your meniscus (like i do) and once recovered feel very strong in the knee - I can play soccer again an not notice its affects !

    BUT i must say it takes a lot longer to heal then the common 4 to 6 weeks as some people say...........4 to 6 weeks is for a very low grade tear or not even tear

    It has taken me 10 to 12 weeks to be able to run a full speed and lateral sprints

    I think Adam is ready for 2014 and so is White !!!!

Also Mcveigh has an ankle injury that is his major concern, not his knee and he won't play. Finally, that Goodes is not going to be able to play footy again, He's done! cannot vouch for the accuracy of this, but thought I'd throw it out there to see what RWOers make of it!
    I think your Dad's colleague was trying to impress him.

    Hopefully it wasn't Melbourne Blood Dad's colleague.

    Brian Taylor kept going on and on at how distressed Tippett was looking and I couldn't see it. It was the stupid comments of the first qtr that got balanced out by more stupid comments in the last.
    Nothing like a good light bulb moment.

    Yeah, the Mcveigh one certainly was a load of crap. The Goodes one, well have to wait and see...
