He's playing due to injuries otherwise he'd been in the VFL to build up more game time. Murphy took a while to get right, now look at him.

Cox could get some VFL time this week, so good news there.

Kruger it pains me to say it is done
Cronicly injured

No way, give him a go...side by side

Darcy Moore, Jamie Elliott and Nathan Murphy were 'chronically' injured for the first few years of their careers.....

We can't "delist" anyone in the mid-season draft, we can only draft a player if we have a list vacancy through long term injuries or in season retirements etc

Exactly right but I honestly don’t think a few Nicksters know or remember this. I laugh at all the knee jerk reactions and suggestions made about players but it’s always great to hear different opinions and to discuss them.
Kruger when fit is an asset the club obviously wanted when they recruited him. He will shine when he plays uninjured, hopefully in the very near future.

Going by the replay of the Kruger ellliots boots seam to hit him in the upper leg hip area and like a lot lower then the ribs like he sustained a really bad corky in the hip area

^ i agree, I struggle to understand how it could be a rib injury, anyway...it really feels like he needs VFL time to gain fitness and touch once he has recovered.

Surely, bring Ruscoe in to cover the backline, leave Kelly in to cover ruck duties and forward time. Both offer more then a half fit and out of game practice Kreuger.

Both Ruscoe and Kelly have done enough to earn a senior game.

I noticed Kruger was on the bike on the sidelines afterwards so i guess he was still able to move it. He got on the bike straight after coming off the field as well.

Just think its a bad corky type of thing.

Agree derkd needs a match or 2 in the vfl first before afl again i think we rushed him back too early.

like to see Cox back for sydney and ruscoe in for kruger.

I was saying (strongly) at the time, he should first build up match fitness in the VFL.
I'm not impressed with his lack of management.

They took a gamble and it didn't pay off. Hindsight is always right.

Go back a bit... Darcy Fogarty crashes into him. When both are running out to the 50.

Fogarty sent two of our players off the field.

He has a bit of Varcoe about him.

Yep Russ - I agree - I reckon the commentators identified the wrong incident
