CibbuanoGreen to miss one, maybe two

MELBOURNE utility Brad Green could be sidelined for up to two weeks after injuring his hamstring against the Western Bulldogs at Telstra Dome on Sunday.
Football operations manager Ross Monaghan said the extent of Green's injury was not fully known until Monday morning.
"Towards the end of the game on the weekend, he got sore in the hamstring and was able to play out the game," Mongahan said.
"But he was a little bit restricted and, on Monday morning, he came in for an injury assessment and he strained it badly enough to miss one week and maybe two."
"If he had have torn it badly, he wouldn't have got through the game so it was just a bit sore."
"But after the game, and once it had cooled down on Monday morning, it was pretty clear it was a bit of problem.
"Now that the medical staff has had a chance to assess it, they went through a normal process and analysed it and decided it would take one week to get over it and quite possibly two."
