Apart from Simpkin staggering, he seemed okay, and that might work in butters favour. I’d say we would all be happy to accept 1 week, anymore would be excessive.We’re playing Collingwood in round 18 who will fighting for a top 8 spot. That alone will up the grading to high impact to make up for that second week...
I can barely recall him kicking a drop punt. He’s the master of the tumble punt.I thought he was really good.
Yep. Put him in cotton wool for the year and take it from there.Ryan Burton has almost made himself impossible to select for the rest of the season. You simply can't pick a player for a final who has a track record of getting injured literally every second game he plays and risk being down a man early in a big final. It's disappointing for him but it's impossible to trust his body at this point.

This unfortunately is a double whammy because not only do we miss Burton, but it gives Hinkley the opportunity to select Bonner.
Question
Does the AFL still have a limit on the number of games you can be suspended for and then be deregistered
Zac needs to be careful
He’s only young and IIRC already has a couple of suspensions against him
I know it’s the longest odds, but could you imagine the romance in Watts into the Back six, then winning the Norm Smith medal!This unfortunately is a double whammy because not only do we miss Burton, but it gives Hinkley the opportunity to select Bonner.
Yeah it's annoying from that perspective. I'd rather he picked Lienert. Even play Sutcliffe there. There's so many options that don't involve Bonner.

Leinert, Mayes, Sutcliffe should all be in front of Bonner for that spot. Bonner playing that role would be my preference.
Forget Watts and Garner. People pining for them have NFI.
Why not Garner?
You never saw Chris McDermott play?
Mate he hasn't played a game all season. He's not on the coaches radar. For whatever reason he's not in the frame (I personally believe they think he's too slow).
Farrell is pretty decent in a contest to be honest. It’s not remotely his issue. The issue is he just goes missing too much and obviously either isn’t working / running hard enough or is running to the wrong places.Reminds me a bit of Amon when he first came in , just no one on one skills but good when he had the ball .
I don’t know how long we can carry him until he gets the power in his body to be more competitive.
I think the wing is his go butDuursma is in front of him .
he couldn’t have tackled as Simpkin didn’t have the ball. Dropped it or ran past it or something from memory.I know it was a split second decision, but it would have been better for Zak to have gone for the tackle.
Bonner has been good with the ball, he provides run from defense.Imagine Bonner coming in and doing the perfectly reasonable job he always does
Spot on - the other main competitors, Tigers, Lions, W.C. and Cats - are all putting in average efforts. One spurt to kill off the opposition is the name of the game.The fact that we are top is an indictment on the rest of the competition.
We usually have a sh*t run of games in the second half of the season. We're just winning most of them in scraps this year. Hopefully we hit our straps at the right time.

Perhaps Kenny and boys are playing it like Fos and Jack would - keep your powder dry! This is just the side show!
