Not having Hampsud there is a disgrace.

Doesn't training form count for anything?

lets get real. Hampson isn't a good ruckman. But he's the best we've had over the past 50 years and for that reason should be voted up.

Disgrace he isn't that included.  :banghead

Batchelor, plays tall, and from all accounts he is a "great bloke"..

Hamspud & Gus could only aspire to Patto's level of mediocrity....

True but not our best trainer

Being a great bloke trumps that.
