Thank fuck Baena and Georg are back.

-PB

Inb4 given another week rest as a precaution

Did they ever say what Raul had as an injury?

-PB

Didn't he have a hammy as well 

I'm praying Honda isn't constantly out this season with injury. 

Raul isn’t starting lmao

You would think we will give him 20 or 30 minutes off the bench for his first game back. I thought Hope was good against Nix, so he should get another start.

Yeah hope was ok. We have to be cautious  with raul and as well as Georg.  Georg more So since ansell is  down for a while

Did i see we are playing in a yellow and grey kit against Adelaide

Where'd you see that?

Mvfckitman, his story on instagram

That's a GK kit. 

Of course it damn well is... Who's got egg on their face... me!

I'm just glad that this thread has been bumped for something other than a key player injury for once.

Princess leijer retires from football. 

Honestly thought he'd be one of the first signings for West Melbourne.

Also Georg out for one game but possibly two or three according to Musky. Man is made of chalk

Agree Georg is made of glass but hopefully he does get fit as we need an experienced cb to partner deng.  In saying that the transfer window is still open and and a certain ersum gulum  is playing  for whittlesea in the npl. Might be a cheap pickup

I am surprised he did not come back to Victory mid season.
With Georg and Nick we could do with another CB.

He's been here for a while . Don't think he wanted to continue  playing . 

Do we have a squad spot open? I know we just picked up Elvis and Lesiotis (spelling?). Would be very handy. Seeing as BOTH Ansell and Georg are quite injury prone.

Are there any CB's of note in the youth setup? 

If we don't win anything this year it will be because of injuries. What is going on? Back luck or conditioning or a bit of both.

I think bad luck. As usually our strength and conditioning  is spot on. But in saying  that we lost crea 

Adrian Leijer has retired from playing and taken a job with Adidas. Thanks for the memories.

Can we use a injury  replacement? As jai is a long term injury 

When did Crea leave? Was definitely at our last home game.

Was it crea or the other one ange took with him??

Sometimes I feel like Broxham is the club's most valuable player. If there's a gap to fill, you know he can plug it adequately. 

On top of that, because he has been with the club for 10 years, 50% of his salary is exempt from the cap.
