Harvey's last game?

Post: # 436437Post perfectionist »

Two minutes before three quarter time, Harv's quad went. Quite innocuous. But it's always a four week job, especially for someone of his age. I could hardly believe it. He does not deserve it. But the truth is, unless we win one of the next two ( quite possible) and then the first two finals (rather improbable), we may have seen the last of him. This is unlikely to be "just scar tissue" as it is not an injury that has dogged him. I hope I'm wrong. And what happened to Kosi? Talk about the KOD, The Age article was just asking for trouble.

Has Harvey said he is not playing next year?

Yes - in not so many words - and we all know it. He has been the greatest St Kilda player ever!

According to Ross Lyon, SEN, Sam Lane, Christi Malthouse, Nick Riewoldt, Stephen Milne and the ABC, Harvey had a tight quad, and will have scans later in the week to assess whether it is strained.

Harvey recovers strongly ... I'd still put my hard earned on him playing next week, and certainly in the Richmond game.


They should only play AFL games now when it's raining. Slow games of footy are so much better to watch.

Obviously. And I might say, his game up until the point he was injured was almost perfect from the team perspective - keeping Bell away from the play. The other Harvey (Mark) was well and truly out coached today. It's remarkable how many goals we kick when we don't play a lose man in defence all the time.

Perfectionist, is this a fact (Harvey will not play next year) or are you just assuming?

Went to the testimonial and listened to what he said then and subsequently It's clear. As for "tightness" I suggest people take a good look at the replay.

I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were psychic?

You nearly gave me apoplexy posting your theory as a fact.

all that i'm hearing is that he might miss one....

and i agree, i think he has said, in a round about way, that this year will probably be his last
