Martin broken down again! Re injured his calf.

Time to put a line thru this bloke or how long did we re sign our SC guru for again?

Year in year out constantly have the comps
worst injury lists - wont win a flag if this continues


Stamp the papers, he is cooked, cannot be relied up irrespective of his talent. Trade or delist at years end.

2018-Wooden Spoon
2019-16th
2020-dare to dream? 11th is better than last I suppose
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time

Martin, Cuningham, Williams, Marchbank.

So much talent.
So many injuries.

I have been saying this forever and a day - don't need superstars just dependable players that can play a role we already have dependable and reliable superstars. Continuing with these players is untenable.

Martin is far from a superstar but he is one of the more unreliable players on our list. The Captain of the rehab group is Marchbank who is the worst player on our list as far as reliability goes. Our injury list unfortunately is season defining.
Marchbank - Captain
Martin - Vice Captain
Cunningham Deputy Vice Captain

I'd fark them all off at years end, nuffs enuff.

I would offload all 4 for whatever we can get.
We just can't afford to carry them anymore.
Williams & Martin pushing 30...it ain't going to improve from here.
Replace them with youth

These guys are a big problem to build and maintain team cohesion - club keeps talking about connection between the lines well we have starting 23players that don't play on decent pay packets. Need to move them on and bring players where the team can build cohesion between the lines. More Acres, E Hollands, Fogarty types...

Put them all on long term injury lists and replace them with mid season draft picks. At least we will know they are going to be 35-40 players on the list and give VFL abit of depth.

Doesn't work like that. Actually needs to be approved by the AFL, who would not.

You cant make strawberry jam out of pig crap. Russell isn't the one keeping them on the list.

It's the same players who are injury prone, not the staff's fault.
2012 HAPPENED!!!!!!!

Yep.
Unbelievable
How on earth are we supposed to develop a structure, understanding, and a team approach, with these changes and unavailability.

I suspect there are players in the side carrying injuries and playing on despite them.
But it's the 'leg' ones that cruel us.
You can play with one shoulder like Acres did at the end of last year...but calves, knees,hamstrings, toes, and you're off for a spell.
And it's these injuries our serial 'victims' seem to attract,

Are we going to hear about the length of the Carlton injury list like the Tigers?
