Sending out an SOS to Big Hank
I'm not gonna believe Bryan's injured until the injury update tomorrow. Feel like there's every chance he's okay and somebody just saw that he had a niggle on the weekend and jumped to the worst conclusion.
Remember when people thought Eyre had gotten injured? And then he played the next week? This could be a similar scenario.
No it's just awareness. Ten weeks.So. It’s a hamstring concern. So he’ll be out 6-8 weeks as well?
I’ll be putting the C on Paul Hunter.my AF team needs a debut from him this week
FFS.
So if we have no Draper, Phillips or Bryan...
How long until the midseason draft exactly?
Age indicates that Phillips will playGonna be light on up forward with Wright spending a lot of time in the ruck. Who the hell takes over when he needs a rest? Jones?
Has Phillips had any game time in the lead up to this round ?Age indicates that Phillips will play
Bring him inHas Phillips had any game time in the lead up to this round ?
Yep we’ve missed a trick here. Give him a run in the ruckThe Saints are light on in the ruck, so what better game for him to debut?
Why do you have to play an undeveloped ruck as the number one ?Has to play next week. Wright to pinch hit.

He was a midrange pick that everyone knew would need some time and games. I they think he is ready then I am fine with that but let's not just him for the sake of getting games.
Hi is still very light . He did not outperform Draper physical wise and the two practice matches I saw some nice Geelong he was beaten in the physical parts of the game. We are not winning flags this year so what difference does it make that they allow him to develop until they think he is ready ? Maybe this week or the next or 5 weeks.Based on what he showed in preseason where he arguably outperformed Draper he’d have no problem doing the kms that Wright is. Unless there is an injury concern I don’t see how he couldn’t carry 60-70% ruck time against a weak Brisbane ruck setup.
