Medial strain is the word doing the rounds. Doesn't sound too serious but worth at least a couple off I would think.

Dahlhaus is a 4 week medial strain. Tricky one... Being through the byes you would probably keep him I think.

Unless you have a shit load of trades left, I would be holding. If you can still field 18, it will pay off in the long run.

Don't have Dahl, but thought others might be interested in the injury report from the club for him on the AFL website yesterday. Reports of 3-4 weeks seems a minimum - essentially he'll be in the brace for at least 3 weeks and then reassess. Reading this I would have said 4 was the absolute minimum. Not sure if it changes people opinion, but worth knowing if you're unsure what to do.

Bulldogs football manager Graham Lowe said the 23-year-old would spend the next few weeks in a brace.

"He's going to be in a brace for the next three weeks and we'll reassess him once that brace has been removed with a view to progressing his training and we'll update with a return to play from there."

Mark Stevens is saying Wells is in major doubt for this week and may even miss a few with his ongoing Achilles/ankle issues.

Wells out = donut.

Not enough trades to cover NicNat, Dollhouse, Wells and all the R14 bye rookies I'd been saving to trade.out this round. Oh well ... easy come ...
