Best wishes to Polak for a speedy recovery.
In lieu of the terrible injury and how Graham won't play again this year, are we allowed to promote a rookie onto the senior list?

Can he be put on long term injury list for injuries NOT sustained on the football ground?

And if yes, who would you promote?
Also would you promote someone same size like Cartledge or best rookie deserving of a chance even if a smaller size like Clayton?

(I won't mention the Camster for obvious reasons! :rofl)

For mine let's give Clayton a crack at it!
Happy to hear your views on this.
 
Short answer YES

Once on the LTIL

For mine Collard hasn't done enough.

One of the ruckmen probably better suits our needs Cartledge to make a decision on or Gus
 
If anyone is promoted it should be Cartledge.

None of the others have done enough, based on consistent form this year, to warrant a promotion or suggest they would cut it in our best 22. I'd be keen to give Cartledge a go to see if he can cut it as an AFL ruckman now his body has developed.

They will only promote someone if they are going to play in our 22.

of course we do just 8 games left.unless you think we should do what we always do in this area nothing.
come to thinkof it you are right they more than likely will leave it until its to late to make any sort of assesment on players. its what they always do.
