He's still on the injury list for me. I'd still rate Charlie as an injury to be honest. Yeah he may be back on the park but miles off being back free from injury. Likewise Murphy who clearly isn't right and shouldn't be playing. De Koning is no guarantee to play. And why claim Casboult isn't out injured - because he's named on emergency? Hasn't played in a month or more.

Injuries haven't been that unkind? 2 games ago we didn't have a key forward on the park, and we are playing jack silvagni as relief ruck for at least 4 matches now. Our list might be smaller than it was last week, but that doesn't mean we haven't 17 names on it less than 2 weeks ago, even if some of them did play last week. Harry wasn't exactly running last week whilst on the park. Re: Pre Game Promise AFL Rd21: Carlton vs Gold Coast - WASurfer - 08-06-2021 Murphy looked very slow last week and got caught with the ball pretty much every time he got it....a nice goal at the end was about all. If it gets him to 300 then so be it....I reckon he's earned it over the journey. I think Eddie is only a bee's away from 350??

I don’t begrudge Murph his 300 but I have to agree that he does look to have slowed up a lot. I looked back at some of his early games for us recently and he looked pretty damn good back then and the comparison with today is stark. Eddie though, afaic at least, can still conjure up some magic on occasions.

He deserves to be that and an icon of the game. At the time I was on the fence of letting Adelaide have Eddie, and by the end of it, was happy to see him gone, but Ill put my hand up and state that this decision was possibly the worst we have made as a footy club in the last 30 years (that is a massive statement in itself).

The only saving grace is that Eddie would probably have retired years ago if he had stayed with us. |
