I know he’s not a key defender, but Gunston is a tall that could play down back. He has previously done this and excelled at it. Would prefer him than Weddle, who I believe is better up field.We will get outsized in the air at times down back but we need to play to our strengths. Team defence, bring the ball to ground and rebound with speed and skill. Scrimshaw, Weddle and Sicily will be asked to play tall at times and they are more than capable of doing so. Frost or Phillips (but not both) is the big call!
My concern would be that he'd have to sit under the ball copping knees to the back a lot more frequently. With his longstanding back issues I don't know if he'd last too long.I know he’s not a key defender, but Gunston is a tall that could play down back. He has previously done this and excelled at it.

Hawthorn website says that Weddle, Gunston, and Morrison are being managed and OK for Round 1.There is no mention as to why he's out.

Gunston used to get sent down in defence for the odd 5 minutes as a loose / spare at the end of a quarter when we wanted to prevent the opposition from getting a late score.I know he’s not a key defender, but Gunston is a tall that could play down back. He has previously done this and excelled at it. Would prefer him than Weddle, who I believe is better up field.
All three are being managed to ensure they’re playing Rd 1I read that line as Morrison being managed, not all three. Though I suppose if there are no noted injuries then they are all being managed.
FoxThis showing on telly somehow ?
Is he only playing the first half?Wiz to kick 15 or trade him.
