You could also argue Collingwood are in the same position, if not worse off than us in defence. They have named Frampton and Moore as their only 2 tall defenders to play on Marshall, Dixon and MG.
Look out Collingwood. Hinkley is preparing us for a four quarter challenge.
ken still hasn't realised that other coaches are smarter than him and can pivot.
Watch Collingwood isolate their Mihochek/Degoey/Elliot etc and take advantage of their overhead prowess.
We Cox either renders AA useless by dragging him out of the play or gets a match up like Jonas that they can similarly isolate.
Travis Boakwill be eased back into Port Adelaide’s side as the substitute, but Ken Hinkley says the Power great can cope with a full game on Saturday if required.PLAYERCARDSTART10Travis Boak

He said the Power were in an ideal position where they could reintroduce Boak slowly to the top level after the two-time best and fairest winner cracked a rib in a brutal collision with West Coast’s Jeremy McGoverna month ago.PLAYERCARDSTART20Jeremy Mcgovern

I kind of want both. We need to blood him as he is our closest to the mark up and coming key defender.Pasini would also be behind clurey in the pecking order. Even the great Robbie gray was made to play a couple sanfl games coming back from an ACL. Pasini is also yet to even debut. What are people basing his selection on?
I’m just finding the calls to bring in Pasini completely nonsensical. Crazy talk.

Why is everyone so keen to rush pasini into the team so quickly. He is coming back from an acl isn’t he? And we plan to pick him for a debut based on a sanfl trial game performance?
Burgoyne deserves to be in the team and it’s the right mix in defence for Collingwood.

Not a fair comparison. With respect to Pasini his talent doesn't compare to Butters, Rozee, Duursma or Bergman.What is our reluctance to play and develop talls when any argument for not risking picking them doesn’t apply to other players
