Bevo may legit go head to head though and just see how it goes. I hope he doesn't. I think Dunks added a lot of value locking down in the 2nd half last weekend, and doing that's probably a bigger influence than he'd have if he was free wheeling.

Dunkley on Zorko would be catastrophic. There's no way he can keep up. Zorko is an explosive player, but I still wouldn't tag him to start with.
For mine, it's McCluggage (Roarke Smith) and Rich (Hannan).

Especially when he's eight going on nine. If it was eight going on seven it might be a bit much.
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

Yep, definitely McCluggage and Rich…
Zorko just needs a player to knock him on his arse.

All you have to do is frustrate Zorko a little and he's done, he's his own worst enemy.

Because he said it publicly, I doubt it happens. Charlie Cameron nominated Conner Ballenden as a replacement for McStay.

McStay is such a massive out. It can't be understated. He's so important to them. A great target that needs to be respected, big and strong, experienced and a great set shot at goal.
Talking about being hard done by in the lead up to the game Brisbane losing McStay in the way they did leading into a cut-throat Semi is bordering on catastrophic.

This was a big part of my consideration. I'm not a monster!

Great set shot? Hmmm… Good mark and important structurally for sure

He's kicked 28.10 this year and 113.61 throughout his career. I wish many of our players had that sort of accuracy.

McStay is a solid set shot but he's really there for his contested marking and ability to take a grab down the line.
