The AFL wants to wrap it up, but they want to do it in the right way.

I saw an article in The Age yesterday.

Jake Nile wrote it about...

The Doctors Association coming out to bat for the doctors and the medical team at Carlton.

I maintain, Cain and Kingy, that if they do get sanctioned, it's more likely to be a smaller sanction or a heavily suspended sanction than a massive whack.

Because I do think there is some empathy, if that's the right word, from senior people at the AFL around Carlton, not knowingly

doing anything wrong by any of their players.

And I understand that.

I understand that.

I think it's easy to look and blame Carlton, and I think they deserve some sort of sanction and some sort of blame, but I don't think whacking them with something massive is necessarily something that the AFL is going to do.

So Jai Kali confirmed ACL at Melbourne.

No good for him.

No good for the Ds either.

Xavier Lindsay, not listed anywhere at the Ds on the injury list, but he has a groin.

He's one to two weeks away.

Mark Blizzard's lateral ligaments in his knee.

Geelong's quietly confident it's not too serious, but scans today will determine that.

Reef McInnes, ASCL in the VFL for Collingwood, no good as well, but he's contracted for another year.

Rory Lobb trained last Wednesday, had a hammy scan.

He'll miss three to four weeks.
