Happy with the lineup, but the run of Lonie would've been handy.

Bryan, after an 'in tight' disposal, always looks to block an opponent. He seems fanatical in this desire.

Great to see Bryza in, hope he cracks some heads and gets a gig up forward.

cannot beleive wood has been dropped though, he will play its just MM playing games.

would also like to see Johno give a spell in the 2s.

Wood on the other hand will be a Collingwood player for many years - something I can't see with Bryan. However, Wood needs to get better. He rucks very well and looks good with the ball in his hands, but the fact is he hasn't got a lot of it in recent weeks. A spell won't hurt him, he is only young.

Bryan deserves another game, it's as simple as that.
yup, my unhappiness (isnt that a powderfinger song) comes from wood's ommission, not bryans. anyways it could turn out to be a positive as wood will come back more fired up.

But bryan did exactly what is needed from him as a back up ruckman, when you get a call up, you come in firing like its the last chance you get. he did well.

I've lost the context, Kingswood. Are we still on haha


and how many times did he say afternoon correcting himself? Can you please rephrase that with fewer ideas, or different thoughts?

Yeah 53.8% not as high as I thought it might be. I like Bryan though, he goes in hard and is a bash and crash ruckman. Most ruckman hate rucking against blokes who provide a hard physical contest and jump into them all of the time and Bryan does this. Hope he sorts of few blokes out tomorrow night.

oh wow, i didnt even realise.

thats definately good news...

the most perplexing thing however is how maxwell remains and goldy is still out. not only is he doing a better job in the defence, goldy is more dangerous when thrown forward, i feel...

maxwell needs to get his head right

Chris Bryan is hell bent on doing the team things. Watching the game at the ground last week i thought he was ok but watching the replay he was great in tight and on numerous occasions lunged and pushed the ball forward when it was in dispute. He was great.

Lets beat these cats.
