Dogs vs pies is apparently on twitter and via internet radio here http://www.rsn.net.au/digital-radio-2/
A few belated injury updates online and on radio suggesting several drafted players might be out to start the season. Apparently Metcalfe was another to cop an ingame injury this weekend.
Not a knee injury, confirmed today as an ankle injury. Timeframe still unknown, but probably weeks rather than months.
This was an article from before the weekends praccy matches - mentions a few injured Adelaide players http://www.afl.com.au/news/2019-01-19/aflw-wait-and-see-is-new-crows-coachs-mantra (Eloise) Jones will miss the trial game with a groin injury, while defender Courtney Cramey (hamstring) and Jessica Sedunary (foot) are also sidelined.
The practice match writeup from AFL draft central was a decent read https://afl.draftcentral.com.au/2019/01/20/young-guns-shine-in-aflw-practice-matches/

@Len @That KI Guy @anthak @Jason @dmandrews @FreoDockers @stripey Hi folks I am wondering whether any 2 of the 8 ORFFW participants would like to volunteer to split 2019 ORFFW preseason analysis duties between them – ie do a write up for 4 teams each including the other volunteer coach’s team – with the aim of posting around 29th January (next Tuesday) ? If so please comment below.

In my unbiased opinion there should be a 100% games reduction for belting a Hosking and I am sure the coach of Bathurst would agree @Len
