So far Melbourne don't have a ruckman outside of the new recruit and Bombers have lost Tippa to a soft tissue injury.

That Hamling injury now looks like (https://www.afl.com.au/news/375959/gun-dockers-defender-could-miss-half-the-season) it'll see him miss half the season, at a minimum.

Not easy shoes to fill ...

Adam Treloar has done a slight hammy in the pre season game on the weekend, in doubt for round 1.

Isn’t it weird how they name players in the injury list but then say they are available.

Stef Martin did a PCL on the weekend and will be out for 8-10 weeks, which equates to 0 games missed.

Buddy has done a hamstring at training, not sure how bad

UPDATE:


Scans have confirmed "decent' hamstring injury to Lance Franklin.

Swans say worse than hamstring injury last year that sidelined him for 9 weeks.


Buddy won't run for next to 3-4 weeks. Only silver lining is no tendon damage but no time frame for return
@7NewsMelbourne

We won't be seeing Buddy in our game

I hope we get to see some more Buddy brilliance but the end is nigh for the champ.

Interesting conundrum
Franklins contract is back ended
Reportedly 1.3 or 1.4 mil this year and next
The ends coming I think

The question is going to be has the recruitment been a success ?
Has for mine, but the non flag in buddy’s era Will be discussed

I can't find the article now but I read the other day it was something along the lines of:

2020 $1.4
2021 $1.5
2022 $900k

Even without a flag it has probably been a success to this point, but if the final 3 years are wiped out at a cost in the $3.5-4 million area, it starts to swing things the other way. Gill was adamant at the time the whole contract would need to be paid out and included in the cap - let's see if that stands.

Geez has he snapped in half again? Poor old Bruce really shouldn't still be bowling given his injury history and the fact he is approaching 60 years of age.

Well the brothers Ben (Pies) and Sam (Swans) are both injured I believe so take your pick.

So when people say the Buddy recruitment is a success what metrics are they using to judge that? General team performance over the period? Media/fan engagement/attention? Franklin's personal performance?

I think given the position they were in when they recruited him and some of the salary cap pressure they've faced since then (Kurt Tippet can also take some credit there) not winning a flag is a pretty big demerit that makes it an overall mixed bag

I don't think there is a definitive gauge on how success is measured other than the easy answer of a flag. I think Franklin has been a very successful addition for Sydney though even though that ultimate success has avoided them so far

Overall Sydney would say it was a great investment for them

Fat Jake limped off the ground at Tullamarine today, some sort of toe/foot issue. Gout is a troublesome ailment.

I don't wish injuries on anyone, but if they do happen to Essendon players you should get right over to Bomberblitz. People start losing their minds.

I was thinking that you could make a troll account on Bomberblitz and abuse the crap out of all of the players, coaches, the whole damn establishment... and no-one would even know you were trolling. You would fit in seamlessly.
