I’m a TBell fan/advocate but even I thought he was cooked. Obviously plenty of negative talk on here but maybe he was carrying an injury (typical). When a big man does an ankle it obviously takes longer to heal. Hoping he bounces back but I as well as others have my concerns. If Draper is slow in getting back, can he at least hold his own?

He played by himself was Kreuzer was down afaik.

In tandem as in Phillps plays games when we rest Bellchambers.

I'm getting the urge to vomit thinking about both in the same side.

Depends if Joe goes and we don't get a replacement. need a bucket?
 
This is how our depth ruckman duel for next year went down. Literally if you can touch the ball, you're in.

Didn't know Bonar was a ruck

dodo reckons sheedy had been at him for ages to grab Phillips - saw something in him back in the gws days - 'a great technician'

He actually averages almost as many hitouts to advantage (12) as Grundy (12.2) and ahead of Witts (11.9) so I'd say his technical work is quite decent. Also the highest Hitout to Advantage Rate of any AFL ruckman, suggesting that when he gets his hand to the ball it'll be beneficial.

A decent bargain pick-up; certainly ahead of Z Clarke.
