10 News had him as 'in doubt'.
He was late to start training, but he was there.

so how many players out in total for melbourne, i seem to have lost count and track of their outs/injuries? :confused:

I'd much rather we beat a close to full strength Melbourne team by 15-20 pts or so, rather than pummelled one missing half a dozen of its best 10 players. Percentage is useful but not critical - if we win the next four its unlikely to be a factor.

Getting competitive matches against quality teams and the team knowing it can match it with the best - that is what should be important at this time of the year.

I think the 4 points is more critical. Imagine wanting to play a full strength side, narrowly losing and missing top 4. It's this sort of luck which can decide the flag. And forget all the nonsense about it helps you play at a level required to beat the best teams. Who knows the best teams could be depleted come Grand Final day. It's all about getting there ; after that anything can happen.

The way David Neitz was talking tonight, he is most unlikely to play. The most amount of double negatives in a sentence I have ever heard.

:D

Nice 'if' Liz, but % is likely to be important. I feel if we win 3 out of 4 inc tomorrow we will get top 4 on %.
