?

He's come off a pretty dodgy injury run and being played out of position
Butcher has had a heaps of injuries and has spent a bit of time in the ruck and down back in the SANFL in the last few years.

Patton has been handed 12 extra games and kicked only 9 more goals.

If I was Jenkins I'd sign a contract asap. Purple patch at the start of the year but he's average.
No coincidence as Walker has lifted he's dropped off. How would you rather score goals in an ideal game plan? Joe the goose out the back or from a marking target and set shot conversion? I know which one holds up more. Pyke might have rejigged things a little.

Hmm Patton hasn't always played deep forward and I don't think Butcher has ever done a ACL. He misses the odd month here and there.. Butcher won't play another game of AFL either.

Could the Giants possibly pull this one off? Doubt it, but at least it will make leaving my home after the weekend a bit easier. At least I don't work in an office anymore, last time I did it was insufferable after a cows win. Mind you, when I worked in an office Port were losing most of their games so I didn't really have too much comeback.

Jenkins is a very athletic guy for his size but he's just not a natural forward in terms of leading & contested marking etc. you couldn't base a forward line around him as the key banana.
Hmm.. could say the same for Jay Schultz last year . He's definitely not worth what some teams are ready to fork out but a handy 50+ goal a season player.

22 of 27 goals scored to one end. Giants need 3 goals in two minutes. They just let the cows off the hook too much in the third.
The last 10 minutes of that quarter was 4.1 to nil and stretched the lead too much.

No way, Schulz still bases his game on leading, marking, and set shot goal kicking, as well as forward pressure and dishing off to others.
