Congrats a change coming?
Interesting. Presumably he's being listed in the squad either as a best 22 player or an emergency.
Query over Jacobs or Jenkins?

Is there a deadline for upgrades?
Suggests Jacobs getting a rest shortly.
After the halfway mark every club gets one free rookie upgrade.
I smell a debut against Brisbane or essendon.

Congratulations to the big fella. Surely that means he's getting a game shortly.
I wonder if the idea is to take O'Brien as the travelling emergency to familiarise him with travelling interstate?
Maybe we're following senile Cornes' advice and resting Sloane, Thommo and Jacobs....
Reckon we may see ROB in against Bombers or Lions.... although i wouldn't be 100% sure as Jacobs has played 70 odd games straight and seems the type to thrive on work load

Maybe, but I'm not sure I'd want my only travelling emergency to be a ruckman, unless Sauce was in doubt (in which case you might take 2 or 3 emergencies to cover all bases).
I'm guessing Sauce will get a rest next week or the week after.

Great news. I hear this kid is a competitive beast.
"Just a great day to be a big man at West Lakes!"
Hmmm - wonder what means. If it was just a great day to be Reilly O'Brien you think they might have said that...
Edit: Read the other thread first you dickhead!!

Any logical person can see he'll be getting games against the Lions and Bombers to give him a taste and to give Sauce a rest. Smart player management from the club, keeping our best fresh for September
If the ability to upgrade rookies ends this week then we'd probably be silly not to as we currently have no ruck backup available if Sauce were to get hurt.
I'd give him a go in one of those games, but I wouldn't say it's guaranteed he will play.

Again?
Nah, good on him, hope Sauce gets a test and he cracks his debut.

I'd be thinking he gets a run in our next 2 home games.

Not sure i agree that'll happen ......with the bye before the finals, if we're top 2, we potentially play only 2 games in 4 weeks .......does Sauce need another 2 week break on top of that?
Can see ROB maybe giving Jenkins a rest one week, and Sauce the other week .....or an equivalent mix of some sorts over the 2 weeks

Jenkins dropped?
Probably whoever has less hitouts in their match this weekend
Interesting upgrade. You would have to assume Jacobs well be rested soon. Or he has a niggle and it's precautionary.
