well he can have 3 weeks off before finals.
definitely concerning, but I reckon Choldo is good enough to win the flag.
Hickey/Vardy are hardly a colossal duo

I call BS, looked groin/abductor related to me, I have doubts on Nanks season but then why would they have named him in the initial squad of 26 if it was a recurrence?
I'll buy their 'sore' story for now but won't be surprised at all if there is worse news to come.
I came here looking for Caesar's report too ...but it's open training on Saturday at 10.30am! We'll find out then I guess.
Main training today there is only 2 people of interest:
Cotch: Trained well so barring any hammy awareness should play.
Grimes: I re-listened to Peter Burge's injury report earlier in the week saying they anticipated Dylan doing some training later in the week. Well all he did today was SLOWLY jog a couple of 1/4 laps and basically jogged through a few cones and was all done after 20 minutes so that was certainly not football training.
If i had rocked up not knowing the nature of his injury I would say no chance, that it is an ankle with no structural damage supposedly and just a swelling issue will probably still be named in side and given every chance.

Thanks Dr Caesar.
Why would they risk further injury, rest him. Give him 2 weeks off ready for our first final.
Bring in Balta and tell Big V to play the Grimes role.

There are no stupid ideas, just stupid people
Surely they give Grimes until Sunday. No reason to telegraph changes to the Bears.
Vloss can't do Grimes' job this week. Grimes is needed for Cameron. Vloss is a champ but not quick enough for Cameron in the white hot form he's currently displaying. And Cameron would most likely torch our other defenders.
We're favourites this week and should win but are by no means certainties. We need to win to guarantee top 4; no Grimes makes that task more difficult.
Great work as usual Ceasar, thanks.
My preference would be to rest Grimes, if the injury is such that doing so would have him right for the finals. Without knowing the full nature and extent of his injury, I just can't tell if that is what would be achieved with a two week rest. Maybe it is the sort of injury where it's not going to get better or worse with rest, so just play him. Dunno.
