Look for Campbell to make the trip West, get rubbed down for the first quarter, come on in the second quarter, get 10 touches and then come off with two busted achilles and two cruciate ligaments torn.

stuff I wish these pricks were honest with us.

And what's with Coughlan being indefinite?

And what's with Coughlan being indefinite?

Coughlan is due to start full training this week. How he gets through that will determine how many more weeks.
Could be 2, 3 or more. Depends on how he trains and more importantly what sort of soreness he encounters from full training. The last couple of weeks he has been doing running, handball drills etc but no contact stuff.

Any news on Cambo WP? He's not listed as injured but I think someone on BF mentioned he might be out for 2 weeks  ??? .

Was listening to clubbed corner tonight MT, and the propaganda minister Hutchison said Cambo had a bit of hamstring soreness and that's why he sat out the last quarter.

He didn't mention if he'd be right this week, but by the tone of what he said it appeared like it was only a minor thing and nothing to really worry about.

Hope they learnt their lesson from last year of risking him when he's underdone.

After missing a game then missing a quarter due to hamstring soreness I reckon they should rest him especially after last year's fiasco heading west . 3 hours cramped up on a plane isn't going to do Cambo one bit of good.

I spoke to Cambo at the footy on Sunday and asked him why he sat out the final quarter and joked that it was because he is getting "old".

I then asked if he would be right for Perth and his reply was - "yep no problems".

I am not holding my breath - the first thing I thought of was " here's 2003 re-visited".
