    I thought he had a great year and showed he is a classy player.
    I'll give you the Sydney game, but he wasn't great in that hawthorn game when the whips were cracking .

      I don't think any player from North was, they got smashed.

          Can he serve that in NAB, or would that put him out of R1?

            To be fair, I thought his defensive work rate for North last year was tenfold better than any season with us. Maybe it was better fitness and a full pre-season but his effort was much better.

                Would be a huge result for us to play Freo without Sandilands. Hope the cop the 1 week on the chin!

                  Oooh. That's good. Tribunal tends to be harsh in pre-season so they may choose to take that on the chin.

                    Campbell or Minson will be licking their lips now. Wouldn't of liked to come up against the giant first game of the year.

                      Honeymoon period. The change certainly helped him but leopards and spots and all that IMHO.

                        Great news as our ideal match up for Sandi in Brett Goodes is no longer on the list.

                          Another of our main options in 2015, Marcus Bontempelli, is probably quite relieved also

                              Definitely is round 1 GVG. He might appeal of course and go to the tribunal.

                                I can easily see him getting off, it was a really soft report.
