All the v best for tomorrow CT, thanks for all you do mate!
All the best CT
A speedy recovery 🙂
Hope all went well CT!
Will hopefully be back next week too!
Anyone else’s brain think “I wonder if CT will need a CT scan?” 🙂
Hope everything went to plan and you get to rest up and watch the footy in comfort this weekend. Looking forward to your return.
Oh man CT – hope all is good and no problems mate and nothing too serious? Fingers crossed for you that all goes well …
I myself am recovering after surgery yesterday …
Thanks for all your tireless work mate!
It’s late Thursday morning so here’s hoping all went well with the surgery, CT.
BRISBANE coach Chris Fagan has confirmed Will Ashcroft will return at AFL level on Friday night.
What does everyone think of sneaking this gun into their midfield?
I think there might be a few ahead of him….Durham/Caldwell to name two.
I wouldn’t be surprised if he is subbed out for a few weeks as he builds fitness. Personally, I wouldn’t go near him this season.

Don’t hold me to this but I’m hearing that Lachie Shultz has gastro so won’t play this weekend and young Joe Richards will be his replacement.
