Barry Hall - In Trouble 50% Chance

[TalkingFootball]

Coach Paul Roos says Barry Hall is a 50-50 chance of playing next week after the Sydney co-captain injured his knee in yesterday's 16-point win over Richmond at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.


Hall has a medial strain but Roos is hopeful his key forward will be available for next Sunday's clash with the Brisbane Lions in Sydney.


"Look, he's probably a 50 - 50 chance for next week," Roos said.

Normally thats code for ... we will pick him in our side on Thursday but wont play him.

Hall is very tough.
I reckon he'll have a couple of injections to get through the game.
Although, this would most likely lead to less stats.
If i didn't already own Brad Johnson, i'd be contemplating the trade

Roos said it Hall rolled his ankle as well as straining his medial, but it is his ankle that was causing more grief. I'm a bit 50/50 with what to do, as I already am carrying Brown on the bench, Aker went with a hamstring so he is gone for 4 weeks, and Johncock has hurt his ankle.

I would like to trade in for Brennan because there is some easy cash to be made, but would prefer the trade down back, but Johncock is the least of the priority injury trades as my bench can cover until next week. I hate this wait until Thursday night/Fri morning.
