8 contested marks for Sinclair! The most in the AFL this season
That's only 2 short of Wayne Carey's record for contested marks in a game. :eek:

Not a bad effort for someone who has previously found great difficulty in marking the ball uncontested.

Not a ruckman. A ruck forward!

At last Sinkers has found his role.

Hopefully, we keep a structure that best utilises him because third tall or 2nd ruck ain't it.
I would actually say a forward ruck, where he spends most of his time forward but sometimes goes into the ruck to give Naismith some time to rest on the bench.

I'm very very confused. Athleticism coordination and agility for marking aren't things you suddenly acquire. Players either have those motor skills or they don't. Sinclair doesn't. Miraculously he suddenly shows those skills in one game!! I'm speechless. Can he do it consistently? I didn't think he could do it once.........so who knows if he can.
