Going by Pederson's interview, and training reports, it seems the coaching staff are hellbent on playing both Jamar and Gawn in the same side (if fit).
It ALMOST worked last year, as Gawny does have some ability as a forward, but it seems, if your almost 7ft tall, then new rules apply. Undersized opponents are apparently 'allowed' to scrag, chop arms, drag down over the shoulder, and fall in the back attempting to spoil, without penalty.
What does everybody think? Can this work to our advantage, and stretch opponents up forward and in the ruck?
Or are we robbing ourselves of someone more agile who can help hold the ball in and get repeat fifty's.?
