Really hope Blakey has a blinder and gets a rising star nomination vs North.
Would be almost as amusing as the overblown Rampe outrage from this week.

Public: *Get outraged and the feral element get violent*
Media: “Crowd behaviour is at an all time low and the AFL need to do something!!!!!!”

I hope Blakey gets a Rising Star nomination against North, but also a Mark of the Year nomination as he climbs the goal-post to take an absolute screamer on the goal-line.

This feels like a game where one team will snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Oh well in that case we’ll win this easy. No one is better at losing than North besides Carlton.

North play the windy conditions in tassie very well, hopefully being a night game there isn't much wind.

OS at the mo. Just watched the Ess highlights. Seems everything positive is related to the youngest players, which is a positive.
How is Sinkers travelling? Goldy will be a hard ask.

He can't afford to get hurt either since we have no rucks in the NEAFL. Well other than 196 Amartey.

Yeah our youngsters were good on Friday night and all, but we're not gonna win many games if we repeat that cycle of getting belted in clearances and inside 50s.

What are the rules in regards to runners?
Can we bring back Jesse White as our runner just for this one match?

If Sinclair is injured I wouldn't be opposed to bringing in Amartey,
He is athletic and is a bit of a threat around the ground, we can just concede the hitout and go for maximum pressure.

Yes. Unless we pick up a decent sized ruckman in this mid year draft,, we could use Asmartey. He has a good leap, is quick and enjoys the context. Still rough as guts but I enjoy how he plays in the Ressies.
We are lucky to have some talented kids in the twos. This helps assuage the pain and realities of where the firsts are.
While he is not worth a cracker in the ones, give KJ the coaching role.

swansfan51 would tell you that you should never draft ruckmen. Good list management is trading for them.

Some of the better ones recently have been drafted- English, Nic Nat, etc. There shouldn’t be a blanket rule in not drafting them in the ND. With the new 6-6-6 rule I feel rucks are going to be even more highly sought after.
