Franklin another. Wasn’t for several years did he play Hawks.
If you remove the 8 home and away games he played against the Hawks between 2014 and 2017, and the 2014 Grand Final, then yeah, you are not far off being right. He did miss two games against them in 2018.

Do you often argue with the voices in your head?
 
After listening to Buck's presser it doesn't sound like it is Crock'O'Clock just yet.

Sounds like Beams is in for sure, and the only other one I could see getting a game would be Greenwood.
 
Reckon we will let Neale run riot, similar to how we've left Tom Mitchell alone in the past. Remember the time Bucks said he wasn't damaging when he had 75 touches? Would've had merit if we hadn't actually lost the game.

Nope we won that game. Round 9, 2017 when Mitchell had 50 but we won in that massive 40 point comeback.

Great that Beams is back. But we still should get Greenwood in to tag Neale.

For his 155 possessions this year (38.8 per game) Neale is going at a remarkable rate of 50% of his possessions being contested and is also dominating clearances averaging 9 a game (next best Zorko 4.5 per game) and 3.8 centre clearances a game (next best Martin with 1.8 per game).

We can beat them with Neale playing unhindered... but cut Neale's influence in half and we are all but guaranteed of winning because they don't have another player who will step up and influence a game to the same level.

Why wouldn't we just play Beams as a run-with? He can find enough of his own ball and is damaging if he wins enough of it. Levi is great at squashing a player but not necessarily providing us with an advantage scoring-wise

I wouldn't want to compromise Beams game. His creativity and score involvement is an asset like you said. I also think because of his game, Beams won't be able to play defensive enough to properly nullify Neale.

With Greenwood on Neale. He has the discipline and stamina to run with Neale all night. And like in chess.. the idea is to sacrifice your pawn for the greater piece, not one of your bishop's. Greenwood gets 10 touches and Neale 20, and we win that equation.

In: Beams, Greenwood

Out: Mayne, Brown
 
In beams out mayne.

I’d be tempted to stick with brown and not use Greenwood, rather rely on our mids to beat Brisbane’s as a collective without worrying too much about neale specifically
Stop Neale, we win, we might anyway but why chance it. I think Greenwood should play.

Year 1, round 8, 2014. Are you trying to be wrong on purpose?
