Changes v Hawks

Safe to say he hasn't done major damage given he played last week and it a pretty manageable injury in general so you would think so.

Having said that, it is considered one of the more painful things to play through.
Explains why he was slightly off last week.
The man is human after all.

Stack and Graham another chance.

Both need a big lift.

Stackie back to HB and Graham back into the middle to give them their best opportunity to re set their form.

Definitely bruised those ribs a few weeks back in the intraclub as they were looking at them that day.
Bruised ribs are bloody painful. Done well just to play but as caesar said he was flying until that point but has been off since.
Get well soon champ.
In better news Jack Ross played well that day. He'll be bloody hungry to win his spot back longer term. Can't wait to watch him play again.

Pressure now intensifies on all but moreso on Stackie and Fridge, who get another reprieve following 2 poor games each.

Baker and the great man to walk back in next week I would expect.

A bad one tomorrow night will probably cost you your spot.

No room for complacency tomorrow night which is good.

Can confirm, had 3 cracked ribs from a ruck leaping into me front on some years back, I tried to finish the game but couldn't I was out from memory for 4-5 weeks in real pain, even sleeping at night was tough, although I may be a bit of a sook haha but geez they hurt!

On Foxfooty they showed dusty in that praccy game hold his ribs. He also copped a knock V the pies but they did state he'll be good to go in RD 4.
The week off (2 weeks all up) will see him right.

2 big bodies help. Caddy and Ross both need to play more midfield as does Graham. Fridge looked a little lost last week, he does his best work in the clinches.
