Tambling named in Indigenous All-Stars squad
« on: January 30, 2009, 07:41:05 PM »
Edit: Tambling is a late inclusion into the side - 5/2/09


Is Blingers not quite right injury wise or did he decline to play? No Edwards, JON or Gilligan either.

Actually quite surprised Tambling wasn't selected he musn't be quite as far along as we thought. Lets just get him right for round 1. Maybe JON could have benifitted from this hit out?

Not fussed that we dont' have any reps, solely from the view of we can't get an injuries out of that game or the players can't lose any conditioning

Correct me if I am wrong but haven't players in the past who played in this game lost considerable conditioning because of the humidity

Not really sure about losing condition WP but Tambling played either last year or his first year and did very little.

Didn't Tambo have some trouble with groin soreness before Christmas?
If so, there's your reason.
I thought JON was also injury interrupted in his pre season.

Geez, who selected this side of young unproven pups ?? Does not have Mike Macleans selection fingerprints on it as he tends to go for more mature players to balance the side.

Yarran - whats he done at AFL level - a couple of training sessions ?

Travis Varcow, lacks pace but moves well on grass - C'MON please !!

Liam Jarrah, a wooden performer - Don't embarrass yourself !

This side looks like a 2006 NT Buffalo side, but without the horn & hoof. 

It is an exhibition game with tickets on itself.

Who cares?

Tambling would have been asked before half these blokes but would have said he'd prefer to focus on the game happening the week after.  :thumbsup

Same here WP.

We also have our intraclub two days before this game with the NAB Cup the weekend after. I'd rather our players prepare and play together than playing with 'strangers' in what is only an exhibition game.

JON wouldn't be playing because he is coming back from a shoulder op and it's still a bit sore although he'll be right to play. Likewise as you mentioned WP Blingers was on a modified program prior to Christmas. It's pointless to take any unnecessary risks in Jan or Feb.

Possibly although they're playing in the evening. Flying and playing back-to-back games at Subi won't be best case scenario either for us if we and the Eagles win first up respectively in the NAB Cup.

Speaking of heat I'm glad our conditioning staff aren't from the Pies expecting footballers to play an actual game in 45 degree heat. Crazy stuff IMV.

It was right after he'd been drafted, hadn't even played an AFL match

I was told Blingers copped an injury on Monday during training. He started with the main group but then pulled out and just did some running. I dont know what the injury is but he was a no show at today's training.
