Anyone able to confirm the latest update on Tim English? Will help determine my trades knowing how long until he is back. Have read reports of another 2 to 3 but also thought I read "back next week". Not 100% what the latest is

Cheers

Latest I read was he's a chance for next week but the Friday night game in Adelaide would make it tight, but he wouldn't miss more than that. I interpreted that as meaning he'll probably miss next week.

With Strnadica out this week it creates an even bigger bottle neck for next week with rookies on the bubble.

Clark, Strnadica, Carroll, Hamilton, Begg, Rioli all on the bubble next week having had decent first games.

Clark, Strnadica, Rioli, Carroll all at this stage look to be better options than McComb and Curtis this week, so we may have no choice but to go early on one of the one gamers this week to leave options open for next week.

I'd probably have Rioli as the worst option right now behind McComb & Curtis actually - just screams one-off downhill skiing performance in a 100 point West Coast belting to me...

I don’t think we need to give too much thought to picking Clark early. If he stays fit he’s best 22 for the rest of the year. Eagles are cooked, he is the future, plus he looks pretty competent at afl level.

If you want to go early on someone it’s him for mine
