I like went I am seeing as well but having just watched the replay my thoughts haven't changed.

Take a look at the 3rd (mid onwards) and that's what I am talking about. Got to the stage he wasn't jumping at ruck contests

The reason Choi looks spent and Soldo doesn't is in part because Choi is covering more metres. Would rather manage a kid with so much upside than a bloke who is a back up
So would you play Soldo and Nank in the same side going forward?
Rotate both of bench for next week

No, absolutely not.

This week against the Pies yes but after that nope

May as well play Grigg on Grundy as Soldo and Nank (especially after a half a game of VFL in the past 8 weeks) will not keep up.
Soldo hasn’t the leap, the smarts, the fitness or the speed to keep up with Grundy.
May as well play Chol to test Grundy when we have the footy and in the air.

Hard to see Chol being pushed out from here. A goalkicking 2nd ruck.

Gee he can really jump this guy. I think Nank will push Soldo out but tbh I think Soldo has been very serviceable and would be a little stiff to get dropped.

Chol looking tired most weeks in the 3rd Q onwards. Needs another preseason of tank and body work but I really like what I'm seeing. Thought his interview after the game was really nice too, very well spoken young man with a sense of humour. Shame BT is such a moron...

Chol is getting better and does some nice things, I have renewed my hopes for him.  He backs up better now in contest and Geez is he agile when the ball is contested for a tall bloke?  Cannot believe some of the tight spots he weaves out of like a big lanky cat doing bullet time in the matrix lol.

Thought he was great tonight. Kept Grundy honest and worked hard around the ground.

WP where did you get the stat that Chol was covering more metres than Soldo?

Chol is listed as 65% game time and Soldo 74% game time, this would suggest that Chol only competed in the ruck for 25% of the game time and was in the forward line for the other 40% of

game time.
