This was posted after the crows captains run yesterday.
But it doesn’t tell us anything. Does not go into detail about what was discussed with the medical staff and a player is not going to leave without having any discussions on the way out. Then ends with his personal thought which should not hold any weight and depends on his credibility and previous success with these 50/50 guesses.

1,831/16+C (Bontempelli)

Petracca with the MVP, Mitchell not so much,.

Parish, Ridley, Hopper, Taranto, Daicos, Rategulea to play.

Some exorbitant projections for Daicos and Taranto, sees me hitting nearly 2,500, but doubtful. 2,400-2,450 probably more likely even that might be a stretch.

May Sunday be good to you all 😎

I hadn't actually watched Will Day play until yesterday. When I brought him in I was backing his stats, his CBA numbers and everything I'd read. Felt a bit dirty but the upside is huge. After watching him yesterday, I'm very happy with the decision.

Exciting player, very explosive and strong in the contest. Think his score yesterday was probably a little unders.

1819/18 Oliver

Its a reasonable score for this time of year, but I am going to be 100 points short of everyone else. Ginbey, Jones (thank goodness for his last quarter) and Greene really disappointing. Really thought keeping Ginbey was the right play. Have been careful with trading in rookies so far hoping to really maximise the cash out of the ones playing, vs bringing in new ones with suspect job security/scoring potential.
Three boosts left still, and will have to be aggressive over the coming weeks to replace these rookies with premiums.

Is there any chance we'll know if Laird is playing or not before the Ess V Cats game?

I'll be copping a donut if he doesn't, I usually don't trade just for 1 donut, Parish is the only player left who hasn't played that id trade in for Laird, it has the added benefit of giving me enough funds to be able to bring in 2 premos instead of just one next week; Oliver & Sinclair, instead of having to choose between the two, both have great draws & gettable be's next week, along with Cincotta.

Sorry if this is the wrong thread.

From all that I have read, the Crows will give him all the time he wants to see if he can get up. He'll do the warm up and make a decision from there.

The Crows reserves play earlier today, but they will hold out an extra player to cover for Laird, so we won't get a real indication from that aspect.

So someone got wind of Laird having a "tight calf".
Laird says, nah all good, not going for scans.
Does captain run, talks to medicos.

The rest is all journo mayo / guessing.
