Yeah I far prefer him back but he has to play forward unfortunately. Need a set of hands.
I almost think if he doesn't play forward we lose. We need the target, and Clarke sure as hell wont provide that.
If we go Draper for Clarke and play Tommy forward that may work though.
Bellchambers isn’t anywhere near the marking target that Hooker is. He’s really the only option we have.
I like this set up if Hooker plays back. Make TBell lead out of deep ff all night and attract attention away from Stringer and the mosquito fleet.I almost think if he doesn't play forward we lose. We need the target, and Clarke sure as hell wont provide that.

...if Hooker plays back. I'm thinking it will only be for one game then JD returns. I'd prefer Hooker than TBell, of course, but at least TBell has the size and aggression and a decent pair of dukes to hurt a pack and take a mark. Not a bad kick for goal either. I take your point on his defensive ability though. Free kicks would be for high tackles if he actually laid any.TBell is a poor forward,yes as resting forward he’s good for odd mark but as permanent he’d cost us more the other way.

Riewoldt, Rance & Cotchin are FAR more significant injuries, forgetting Houli, Grigg and Short with Martin suspended. To think our issues are even close to that is either sarcasm I've clearly missed or hugely overrating McKernan, Laverde and Stewart.Andrews would have a field day. Think a more mobile Brown would be better along with Stringer.
Daniher, McKernan, Laverde and Stewart all injured...pfft and Tigers think they have it tough with injuries!

This post makes me so happy.Forget his vice grip, or his positioning...
I was in the pocket on the fence city end, first time all year I have heard a players voice over the crowd directing his troops.
He is the general down there, he improved Hurleys game, Ridley's game just by being there.
I had heart in mouth at first bounce when I saw him on McCarthy but I neednt have worried, it just gave him more 'general' time to push the troops round the board.
Great in. Huge.
