Spewing but think we have found one if he can get his body right.

Iam not the biggest dodoro fan but itā€™s amazing to see not long ago people saying we are mid season draft specialists, the wa recruiter deserves a pay rise etc.
to now this will end dodoro and what a dud pick by dudoro.
I personally think this lad showed more in the two vfl games then any of the other forward options in jones and Voss

Real passive aggressive, ass covering tones in that statement*

Itā€™s real rotten luck for Jaiden. Hope he keeps his spot on the list and is able to give it another go next year.

*Unlike some I donā€™t believe we have the right to know about injuries the minute they are known. I have no problem with the way injuries are announced. I just found this statement funny.

Did anyone catch the comments that were left on the post?
Player joins club, is injured in his first two weeks and when he announces it, instead of getting ā€˜sad news, hope you get betterā€™ he probably gets pummelled with ā€˜sack Dodoroā€™, ā€˜this club is farkedā€™ and ā€˜sack whoever our S&C person isā€™.
I will admit, thereā€™s no evidence the above happened. Thatā€™s just my bias at play.

Did Dodoro injure him? Bloody hell.

The first couple were like that.
It usually takes a little longer for the nuffie to come to full fruition.

Thatā€™s only from reading comments when our injury reports come outā€¦

No, that was Vossy.

Yeah I know what you mean. They are perhaps a bit angry that he passed a full medical but had a pre-existing issue that was missed. But also trying to pre-empt the flack that will come their way over this as well.

Dont think its that big a deal to be honest.
Was unlikely to play in the seniors this year anyway, we have signed him up for what he can become in the next few years.
Hopefully get him right and ready for pre season.

Weā€™ve signed him up for 6 months.

Hopefully he gets at least another 12 months.

My sauces tell me it was either Profssor Plum in the library with a steel pipe, or else Fletch tripped him up in the car park.

Make of the what you will, to borrow a well worn line.

I think its likely, but also makes things tight, assume we see how he goes offield before extending contract, we got around baldwin after 2 aclā€™s imagine this would be similar.

Are they really saying the AwFuL audit all players who nominate for the draft(s)?

Can we sue them?
