    I can't see how you can drop a player who kicks 5. I guess it depends how he kicks them.
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

      If he kicks 5, yes.

      English has been ordinary in the last 2 games, I'd be happy to give him a week off/play VFL if the Schache/Martin combination works well and the former plays really well.

        English will never play VFL again in his career unless returning from a long-term injury. I am a big fan of Schache but I don't see how he plays ahead of Bruce, Naughton and English at the moment.

          I'm pretty sure it said that last week too and he was the sub. Could go either way.

              I would suggest we probably win the game and provide additional concern for other teams.

              I don't have an issue withy the MC wrestling to fit 25 plus players into a best 22.

              What if Jamarra kicks 5 or 6 when he debuts.

              It is a good problem to have excess quality options.

                Yeah, of course. But does he stay in? Do we shuffle the team around to accomodate Bruce/Naughton/English/Schache?

                Does Naughton *gasp* go back to defence?

                  Schache is simply a makeshift ruck, he just happens to be taller than Dunkley.

                    English is simply a makeshift forward, he just happens to be better at rucking than Schache.

                      Actually might bring a point of difference, but I am not convinced that English is better at rucking than anyone 2 metres tall.

                      If Schache handles the ruck duties and contributes forward it may add to the MC dilemma.

                      What English generally does better is provide a marking option around the ground and especially getting back to help in defence.

                        I know nothing Hannan. Why is he in the team and what should we expect?

                          He was on our list at Footscray for a couple of years and we were planning to draft him but Melbourne jumped ahead of us.
                          Tallish forward or winger with pace and with 50 games senior experience. I think he is still a touch underdone but this will be one way of testing that theory. I hope he bags a couple of goals for us.

                            Seriously quick mid sized winger/half forward type. Can take hangers & kicks a goal a game.

                            I'm not at all surprised by his inclusion as the club recruited him for a reason. Just hope he is fit.

                              Assuming he's fit, Hannan's style will suit what we have really well.

                              A guy who is good in the air and on the ground with forward nous and pace is a welcome addition. Our marking power has been huge but that's largely been due to Naughty/English/Bruce, so it'll be great to have a medium option to add to this too.

                                I love Hannan and have since watching him tear it up at Whitten Oval in 2016. He's bigger and stronger than he was then, and actually reminds me a little of Stewie Crameri but quicker.

                                Has genuine forward nous and is dangerous in the air and when it hits the ground, great addition to the side.
