If I was a betting man which I'm not..I'd back Sutherland to come in for someone like T E-B who only had 5 possession and no score last week. I could be wrong but think we need a dedicated ruckman to at least take it up to EF's talls in Griffin and Strnadica. Griffin is a class ruckman and will dominate our makeshifts in Delahunty and Wheeler.

Well Griffin may be class - and I respect your view.

His make shift opponent Delahunty had 30 possessions, 10 marks, 2 goals and a measly 20 hitouts.

Well your make shift didn't get dominated - far from that.

Perhaps some kudos to the 'makeshift' Delahunty might be more appropriate?

Obviously played a pretty solid game as the ruckman for Subiaco - maybe he is just that, a ruckman.

He is a Sandover Medalist, thats what he is.

Why is BC making us wait so long for the match report?

No match report this week but congrats to our % which went from 164 to 172.

A very good effort by the boys. Dela was superb, Kennedy's run off half back was excellent, Benny Newton all class, Harry Marsh very good and I thought our general pressure on the ball carrier made a huge difference. It was a bit of a pasting in the end but I did see some green shoots at EF with their young guys having a red hot crack like Bonomeli who at 198 cms and Strnadica at 203 giving them plenty to look forward to. Just on Strnadica why Freo let him go at 21 years of age and kept some of the other spuds is beyond me...but that's Freo I guess. All round a a pleasing win.

If Subiaco did have a dedicated ruckman - not being a betting man myself, can you imagine 'how far the post for Subiaco if I was'.

We had one last year oollll in Zac Clarke who freed up Dela to be a high half forward/attacking tall midfielder which was much more effective than playing him in the ruck. He's still very effective but I don't think he hurts the opposition as much as last year....plus at 194cm he's not tall enough to be a genuine full time ruckman. We did the same thing in 2016 and 2017 where Dela and Wheeler shared the ruck duties and where did that get us?

Thanks BC, you have an awesome sense of humour.

Delahunty was outstanding. Is he a genuine chance for the Sandover?

BC how did you rate your ex Melville tyro in Bonomelli mate?....

He did a few good things Freez but was a bit quiet like most of his mates up forward with the exception of Strnadica. He's only young and will get better given the opportunity. He was also up against first class WAFL defenders in Lockyer, Litherland and Marsh so hopefully will learn something from the experience.
