    Dare i say it, but even Dermott Brereton in yesterday's 'Hun' rated McLean a good pick up. Apparently coached him in juniors and feels he is very big and strong with a mature body. His efforts last week against the the 3 giants were very good. Against 2 more mortal ruckman who can be hot and cold i think he'll do ok
    Our new Nankervis??

      Only problem is that if Zac Smith plays he will be up against three genuine ruckmen.

        Perhaps (W)Haywards poor kicking is associated with this injury. If so, he should have been rested weeks ago.

          I think that is all in his mind

            Silly question... how can we have 10 ins and only one out?
            Ok, not 10.
            Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
            Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

              It's a Sunday game - they cut the bench down to 4 (with the other 3 as emergencies) at 5pm today.

              Looks like McLean will keep you out of your desired ruck role. I'd advise you to give up 2019, go in for whatever surgeries are required, and aim to be fit and ready for round 1 2020 in case we trade or delist all our rucks.

                Provided, of course, I grow at least a foot and a half between now and then.

                  Confirmed just one change. Dawson for Hayward. Happy for Stoddard and Fox.

                    Great news. Especially pleasing to see them give Stoddart another chance and stick fat with the team that put in a strong effort last week.

                        Yeah I found that interesting too , ‘managing’ his form by sending him to the Magoo’s ?
