He was played every where, but mind you he was behind Ryder, Westhoff, Howard and Trengove early in his career then Dixon and Marshall and it was him or Ladhams who were going to take the next step as the fwd/ruck. Ladhams got ahead of him.

He played every where at SANFL level though.

He might have an AFL premiership medal come Saturday.
Good on him for persevering with it!

9 most recent MCG GF's all had a non VIC team, 7/9 the VIC team won.
Hate to say it but Brisbane up against it this weekend.

Go back another 20 years and it's something like 9/17 in favour of interstate teams

Don't think he will. 28deg forecast for the GF, reckon they will go small, take Ginnivan into the 22 and bring Noble as the sub.

I don't like Adams but have to respect him for ruling himself out this early on, the 22nd player will sleep a little easier tonight.

Makes sense as a like for like for McStay, but not sure a side with Frampton in it wins a GF.
Good on Billy though.

Pies for me, buts that's my wallet talking really.

The way I am looking at this one, if Collingwood win, I get a monetary compensation. If Brisbane win, I get to hang shit on Pies fans for 12 months.

Win/Win

Crisp for Normie
