Bonar looks like he's ready to go. However, he really was the only GWS debutante and was surrounded by a lot more talent and experience than our newbies.
For them record, Bonar spent 79% of the game on the ground and that was probably more than was planned for. Of our newbies, Charlie played 89%, Harry 85% (admirable given that he played key forward and back up ruck), Polson 82%, Samo 78%, Dow 77%, Pickett 72% and O'Brien 68%. Byrne, with limited match fitness, played 79%. I suspect that they are all spending a lot more time on the ground than they should be.
