				Who's burning up the track at your club?

 Who's burning?
 Second-year blues shouldn't be a problem for Daniel Rioli after an excellent pre-season. The 19-year-old showed promising signs in his debut season and while he has looked good on the track, his leadership has made him a standout. Rioli has mentored some of the club's draftees and has taken a special interest in Shai Bolton.
 
 Defender Dylan Grimes has battled injury troubles in the past but his body has held firm throughout this preparation.
 
 Running defender Oleg Markov should build on an impressive debut late last season after a strong effort in the time trial for the Tigers' younger players early this year.
 
 Who's not?
 Star forward Jack Riewoldt has been compromised this pre-season after a right ankle reconstruction and two bouts of surgery on the little finger on his right hand.
 
 Ex-Sun Dion Prestia had a slow start to pre-season after having his 2016 ended by a knee operation.
 
 Ben Griffiths and Corey Ellis had groin issues, tough defender Steve Morris is recovering from a knee reconstruction and young onballer Jack Graham is alongside him in the rehab group after a hamstring injury. The Tigers expect the draftee to join the main group soon.

 ooh please well he is injured he is not, so therefore not playing

 i await your reply but i wont hold my breath.

				It was obvious the club played Griff injured at the end of last season. Why wouldn't they just put him up for surgery earlier so he could have had a full preseason? It's not like we were looking at making the 8.... :whistle
 
 Our injury and list management leaves a lot to be desired.

 Another one of your cheap shots at another poster  ::)
 
 He is not injured. Can I make it any clearer. He is on restricted program post surgery for an injury he carried most of the 2nd half of last season.
 
 He has not sustained any new injury - get It? So how can he be injured again? Your words not mine
 
 There is a massive difference between being injured and being on a modified program due to recovering from surgery.
 
 Seriously which part of it dont you understand.

 We have to win games to build momentum for the following season remember?  :lol

 Seems to me he is affected by injury hence he is on a modified program that is preventing him doing full training.If it was now the season proper that  recovery process would stop him playing.

 He didn't play the last three games if i recall. Not sure how by playing him it would translate into winning games anyway. he played 13 games and only three of them were good ones.One of them against essendon was pretty late in the season so he could not have been too badly injured .

				Did I really need to post the sarcasm emoji after that post claw?

 Strained his groin near the end of the Essendon game right in front of me. Clearly hobbled off. Then played the next two games and looked clearly hampered. Trained with the club to get into the team for the last few games. Should have not played after the Essendon game as he was clearly injured.
