Out of interest, I looked up Reilly O'brien for the Crows. About to turn 24, 202cm, 101kg, 17 games. He played a good game last week - 27 touches, 39 hitouts, 3 marks, 4 tackles.
O’Brien’s stats should be treated with caution; Essendon didn’t play a ruckman.
We will miss Kreuzer’s one percenters but, if Flip is on his game, his marking around the ground will be a bonus. He is a competitive tap ruckman and should be more than a match for O’Brien.
