If Casboult is fit I think he plays....his form isn't great but it would take the pressure off TDK and Harry at times.

Do North play a 2nd ruckman?

Late in last weekends game, SoJ even won a tap against Grundy, and our guys started roving very well to Grundy's tap work. The thing with ruck work is, even if you lose, as long as you are smart about how you lose you can determine roughly where the taps will go.
I realise Norp won't be caught out as they've had a heads up, but I think it's worth another run to see if SoJ can find a way to persist. Goldstein isn't super mobile, if De Koning and SoJ can square a few contests and then use quick recovery to join the contest, it can work for us.
In any case, I won't be at all surprised to see Goldstein stay defensive side and float back in front of BigH.

I'd expect Goldstein and Xerri to be a bit more physical than Grundy , playing pretend ruckman like Jack works for a while but
other teams will exploit it sooner than later and we will need Levi back. I wouldnt want to play Stkilda and Port with just TDK....

I agree about Goldstein being heavier opposition than Grundy, which is why De Koning will need more of a chop out than last week. However, if De Koning gets on his bike Goldstein will not keep up.
They have that other kid coming back from injury, the mid-season pick Jacob Edwards who was starring for Sandi, but I'm not sure he'll come straight into AFL. A tall skinny, 205cm x 90kg.

people getting excited about kennedy but his game against cats was poor,but he was good against pies,just think club should wait before discussing contracts ,we will see how he goes on a quick track and a quick north.

Two interesting players for Nth are Thomas and McDonald......the latter will take Walsh IMO and the former has gone to the next level as a player and will need a tag.
I'd expect a 5 goal plus win as Nth are very under equipped and have their fair share of joe average players...
