Before we get all worried about Bird, it's important to remember that a PCL injury is very different to an ACL injury. There are a significant number of instances where 1) PCLs aren't reconstructed 2) players don't miss too many games with conservative management and 3) as in Goodsey's case of his first PCL, he didn't even miss a week. It is often based on severity of symptoms & degree of damage.
Yes to goswannies and yes to ShockOfHair. But all the players except two in the circle singing the song look happy and excited. And the two who look glum are Kennedy and Bird. That may be a coincidence and mean nothing at all. I hope so. No doubt we will see this week.
Didn't Goodes managed to play on with a torn PCL?
Can we merge the two 'changes for round 22' threads?
Cheers!

Also, I think Hewett is a massive chance to be given a game this week...will be as excited as I've been for any debutante since Mitchell.

He did in 2004, but I'm pretty sure that was when we saw mummified knee Goodesy that could only run in straight lines (not sure if it was because of the knee or the strapping!) and ended up playing across CHB for the rest of that season. Pretty sure it was PCL in the Grand Final in 2012 as well and he saw the game out, but that's not exactly getting up next week and I think it was a rupture not tear (not sure if that makes a difference).
I don't think we can take much from Goodesy in 2004 as means of encouragement for Craig, if he was limited as Goodesy was for the rest of that season then he'd have to sit it out.

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
That is just plain ridiculous. What you are saying is, that if you are a brilliant in and under midfielder that can run fast, you will not get a game for the swans.
You really do try and sound as if you are some sort of AFL guru and some of the stuff you preach is just ridiculous.
