Buchy in hospital (was 'in doubt')

HARD-WORKING Swans midfielder Amon Buchanan is in doubt for tomorrow night's match against Essendon after being hospitalised with an infected shoulder.
Buchanan was named in the side last night. However it is believed a cut on his shoulder developed a golden staph infection after last week's game. He could be missing from the side for two to three weeks during the run-up to the finals.

Yikes, a golden staph infection is notoriously hard to get rid off because its resistant to a lot of antibiotics.

I thought he had beaten his run of bad luck but he's found a new way to get injured.

I thought we got rid of Staff to Richmond.

@@@@. Another repive for Flipper?

That is nasty and can linger for a while in the system. It enervates the affected person.

Why not go with Doyle instead and free Richards from the back up rucking duties that he has been doing?

He's not going to be much of a replacement for one of our best midfielders.

Whilst I have to admit I wouldn't be too keen to see Phillips back in the side again (apart from my insane man love for Nicky D, plus thinking 3 games is probably enough in his first year and he hasn't forced his way for more, I just have an image of the poor kid getting in a scuffle with Mark McVeigh... of course usually Mark seeks out his brother for a scuffle, but can you imagine an angry little ant like Mark going at Simon?), it would make the changes from last week to this
Out: Buchanan
In: Fosdike
which doesn't look quite as bad.

[Jeffers1984]

Yeah good point Robbie and Bloods. I was just assuming Roosy may take the standard approach of replacing like for like. I would definately like to see the Donk in to stretch their undersized defence and free up Richards to sit out in bay 29 and do nothing.

He`s got to get into Silver Water. No joke. Suffacates ANY bacterial and viral infections. I`ve been having it for 2 years now, Have not had one cold of nothing. Link

Because it's pissing down with rain and is forecast to do so for the rest of the weekend. Would be daft to go taller this week, of all weeks.

The conditions mean that a true goal sneak might be in order, but he (Phillips) needs to be played forward, not in the midfield.

Monty is just about the player I would least like the team to lose for this game, given his form and the weather.

What about leeches? Hey, if it was good enough for Queen Elizabeth I it should be good enough for Monty.

Great, so there could be golden staph in the Sydney changerooms, gym etc. That's just awesome.
