    Where will he play?
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

      Does Libba rest and he takes his role, or does he replace someone on the HFF like Richards?

          This really put a smile on my face.

          I'm so happy and pumped for him.

            Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

              Would anyone liken his game style to Clay Smith?

                Not sure he house the nous around goals like Clay. Tackles like a maniac, though.

                  At a guess, he will play as a forward with some runs in the middle

                    This is a "reward for years of effort" selection if ever I've seen it. Hard at it kid.

                          Well done Cal. Seems like a great person, and hopefully he enjoys his time out there on the weekend!

                            This is the worst week to rest Libba. GC are elite in at the coalface and we need every bit of Libba's strength in this area to combat their key stoppage and clearance strength.

                            If he needs a rest arguably Richmond would be a better week to do so. They are a poor stoppage team but are very quick around the ground. We could do with one extra speedster on the outside and 1 less slower grunt mid against the Tigers

                              Good luck Callum !!

                              One thing with Porter based upon VFL games Iv'e watched - he will give his all.

                              Expect him to be gritty and determined and lay some damn good tackles.

                              We'll share the joy
                              Just like '54 again.

                                from what I’ve seen of Porter he has a lot of Libs traits, as well as the fact he tackles really hard. Maybe a semi decent replacement for Libs if we MUST rest him (not that Libs should ever be dropped from our side).
