    2 weeks in a row, the second nomination before he has even played, that's impressive!

    Really? Got on the end of 3 over the top goals early on and then did bugger all.

    Must be a weak field.

    How long was he on the pine for? Like 10-15 min?

    Thought the same. Got a few cheapies partly by using his athleticism out the back and because we over-committed our defence early.
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    You trade enough with GWS, you're bound to get one right. Looks a beauty.

    I don't like Carlton, but I like more that this part of the Gryphone trade is no longer at GWS. They could build a decent defence around he and Weitering.
