Leo/MOL out for 2-3 weeks!

[NMWBloods]

Just got back after catching the same plane as the swans. ROK was on crutches, hope that doesn't mean it's more serious than intially thought.

Darcy commented last night that players with foot or leg injuries often use crutches early in the week as a precaution or to speed the healing process.

It just means that the needle wore off. He'll get a week off traing and another needle next weekend.

I think Leo Barry has been a liability for weeks. He's been playing injured for a while I'd guess.

Id say Bolts will play FB, with Teddy, LRT, Grundy/Brennan as other tall backs. I dont think we'll loose much.

Replacing MOL without Hall or Davis could be a problem though!

i dont think leo being out hurts us that much. I actually liked grundy slipping down to defence.

Micky O would be a massive loss, im not sure we have a direct swap, but we need either hall back or heavy rotation through the forward line.

We can exploit Rutten at full back by running off him, you almost need to tag Bock he has become such a gun, so it might not matter too much next week. Will need similar from Mcveigh and Bevan etc

I'd like to see Brennen given another go down back, he's been in the best lists of the 2's week after week. It's time to give him a fair dinkum crack at the 1's. Malceski concerns me, he is running on eggshells at the moment, and obviously has no confidence for a physical contest.
Nick Smith is another who should be given a fair chance. Why O'Dwyer replaced him today is a mystery.

Dr Pete Larkin reckons :

Leo is 2 - 3 wk Hamstring tear.

MOL - Ankle. Could be OK, he reckons if the y get the strapping right he may play next week. Said that it appear the strapping wasn't right today, and they tried to strap it over the strapping, but it didn't work. Tough to get it right.

ROK heavily iced, but should come up OK.

Goodes has a groin strain, but should be OK, maybe.

Sounds good to me. If Fossie is available, I'd like to see him back in the side.

Didn't say it was good...

But I reckon that's what will happen.

Leo out, Malceski in.

MO'L out, Hall in.

Simple as that.

What injury for Leo?

The last time Jesse White played I thought he looked very slow. Ruckman-like, you might call it.

[gossipcom]

Craig Bolton will probably slot back to fullback with Mal coming back in and Grundy holding his place. If there was a change in the back then maybe Brennan will come in since he was used in the backline against the Weagles in the infamous ANZ Stadium match.

[swantastic]

Yeah, it seemed as though if Leo even breathed on Fev he was getting pinged.

True some times but Leo is known for holding on.

[BigD]

I don't think Roosey took Leo off Fev - Leo came off injured. Leo did okay I thought. Some dodgy decisions went Fev's way. I can't stand Fev and the way the commentators go on about him.

need to bring back hally for mol!! hopefully malceski will be right for next week to come in for leo - no other changes. Loved Matty O'Dwyer.
