AFL Twitter feed has Henderson on the list of injuries saying he has done a groin and will miss two weeks...

A comment on TC has Hendo limping and not looking good. An article on afl.com.au, on the other hand, has him a certainty to play next week. I don't mind saying that I'm confused.

Hendo looked to be moving fine at the end of the match.

Whatever the truth of the matter is, hopefully Hendo can get fit. We need him very badly in our structure. I would hate to start the season with Rowe in key defence.
Live Long and Prosper!

Holman and Johnson (rookie) from the early game are getting a run.

They both got subbed off: probably to give them time to recover.
Hope they can get a goal or 2. Not much scoring to report.

Free to Cooney - goal.  :(
At least Watson is back in defence.
Live Long and Prosper!

Those who were there may not agree: this from afl.com.au.
Reading their report, we were smashed in the centre clearances again.

And after sitting out the first half Tom Liberatore had 20 disposals in the second half, including an amazing 16 touches in the third term alone when he controlled the clearances.
Not happy, Jan!
We have a week to get things right.
Live Long and Prosper!

I would be very surprised if we started the year like we've played our last two games. If we did however wow. The torch will be well and truly applied to Mick.
Ignorance is bliss.

ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!

Our clearance work is usually pretty good and I think we were top 4 for clearance differential last year. What has Laidley done to our midfield? :))

We've been smashed in the clearances this preseason.
