    Poor McGlynn ... must feel terrible right now. He deserves more than most the team to be playing on Saturday.

      Awful news. He has worked his arse off since he joined our club. Shattered for him. We had better make it back to back next year

        Tough break for him. Gotta feel more than a bit sorry for him.

          He walked past us on the boundary at half time last week and the look on his face was one of someone who knew with 100 per cent certainty, he would not be playing this week

            I'm gutted for him. Terrible news.

                Shocking luck for McGlynn, but in a macabre sort of way I'm glad he failed the fitness test, effectively ruling himself out, rather than passing the test and leaving the selectors with a hell of a decision.

                Don't get me wrong, a 100% fit McGlynn is a no-brainer selection, but I'm not sure a 3 week hammy layoff McGlynn would offer as much as a Parker (or Morton) who was the logical one to make way.

                If the selectors felt the same way and left him out anyway, I reckon that would feel worse...

                  Bad for Ben. Right decision for team. I dunno why all contributors during the season don't get a medal anyway if they win the Granny.

                    My missus say's that every year and every year I argue that I doubt the players would want it like that....

                        Agree. Or they pick him and he breaks down midway through the first quarter. Or plays well below his capabilities because he's lost a bit of touch after a three week lay off.

                            I'm presuming he'll be an emergency so no medal.

                              Bad luck for Benny - but the right thing for the team to rule him out this far out from the game. He deserves a medal for what he's done for us this year. Hopefully he gets it next year.
