Callum Coleman-Judas - extricate yourself to Nth Ballarat, you git

If were pinning our future on this kid then we're in trouble IMO.

Of course it’s been a risk for quite a while and we’ve gotten away with it - and he’s a marvel

Well, we won't have Pickett jumping up this weekend, so who gives Nank a rest?
Have not seen CCJ play of course, so cannot express an opinion on his ability or lack of.
Seems we are clutching at straws right now.

Yeah, except it's too late to really get a gauge now. He's coming in to play the impossible, unrewarding, punishing role that Lynch was playing instead of 3rd banana.

It must be both Chol and CJ this week.
