Not his best game but still one of our best. His presence just makes such a difference due to his relentless determination.
Still one of the best contested ball winners in the game.
 
Rusty or not how good is it to see the Skippa Chimp back he is the defensive savage of our midfield in the clinches.

Been setting that standard for years.

Anyone else notice him suck on an asthma puffer as teams went to their positions just before the first bounce? That was news to me.

Is nothing out of the ordinary plenty of players do, Ive seen a few taking the odd hit from a Ventolin puffer.

You don't have to be asthmatic to use Ventolin.

Too much will give you tremors and a dry mouth though.

Elite sportsman often use them just to increase the dilation of their airways to allow them to breath better.

I don't think its banned.

Big Richo would be best placed able to clear that one up.
 
I thought his influence tonight was huge for us. He may not have had big numbers but he goes in so hard and impacts contests positively for us. What a champion player he is. So underestimated externally but internally and by supporters we see what he does. Makes everyone around him look so much better.

We just look more composed with him out there.

And he is brutal at the contest. 65% game time is perfect.

Impact and presence. Still so clean below the knees.
 
The rest of the team lift when he’s there. In his preview of the game, Titus O’Reilly said he left a large, noticeable leadership shaped hole in the side during his absence.
 
Just hunts the ball & crashes in. That itself is worth more than useless out the back possessions.
