Part of the reason I was hoping to see Noble play last week was that I suspected his debut was going to be this round if it wasn't against Hawthorn.

Fair to say that outside of a final he's been handed the most difficult first game scenario imaginable in season 2019.

Hopefully his rapid rise from playing SANFL just 6 weeks back will give him the confidence to meet this challenge head on.

Good luck kid.

Not just because it's against a top 2 side at their fortress, but WCE also have the most dangerous small forward group in the AFL. They've thrown him under the bus for his 1st game, but he can make a name for himself if he plays well.

Thrown him under a bus suggests that it's a deliberate ploy to expose him knowing that he's going to get smashed. That's the only way you could apply 'thrown him under a bus' in this context.

The match committee must be a bunch of pricks.

Thanks David ;)
 
Done enough to hold his place, but will be better for the run. There were times tonight where he would have ran away with the footy had it been a VFL paced game.
