First time he's clearly demonstrated how naturally talented he is. Was like a big gun mid at times - which is why I maintain we gave up on him as a ruck way too soon. Will always be an enigmatic player though.

Just posted in another thread, reckon he can be a ruckman. Maybe we have our long term replacement for Ivan and it ain't Hampson

You don't waste A Grade forwards in the ruck

 :thumbsdown

But I don't think he is a grade forward but he can be an a grade ruckman who can rest up forward

very good in traffic when he is on song...
still think he's much better as forward rotating into the ruck rather than being a full time ruck....
taking nothing away from him, the sydney rucks tonight are not much chop....made a big difference for us getting our hands on the ball in the stoppage.

we still likely need to acquire a fulltime ruck to take over from ivan.....the vickery/griffo combo in support works well.

FANTASTIC EFFORT!!!! Would not have gotten back into the game if it weren't for him, its amazing to see how much better he became when our game plan came off and the ball came into the forward line like it did. Great job all over, robbed of that goal because of the interchange fiasco.

As someone has already touched on, his set shot kicking was fantastic last night.

Makes you really wonder why he has been spudding it up for so long when he can play a game like that.
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.
