Would like to see gowers get a go seems a good fit with Byrne out. Him or Buckley. If nick graham can't get a game in our midfield he has a limited future

Gowers has built himself up to a decent size and I reckon we need another big bodied mis as we looked a bit weak and intimidated by Collingwood.....the Crows are very strong in the midfield with some big bodies and I would be promoting Gowers for Byrne and having a good look at him in the seniors.
While Graham had 36 and Buckley was ok its Gowers size and blue collar approach we need IMO....

Agree but I bet they will go with Graham, see that he isn't up to AFL level and drop him the following week.
2017-16th
2018-Wooden Spoon
2019-16th
2020-dare to dream? 11th is better than last I suppose
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time

Yep, EB1, as the Spotted Cat said... 100% on the money.

Loved reading from Captain CRASH that Gowers made some enemies at Rottingwood, I love that about him...as they say, hard as a cat's head and plays close to the line. Brings hardness to the contest which Graham and Buckley haven't the body for. Like Buckley, Gowers is a bloody good kick and likes to run and take on the game.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

Grahame especially looks like he had a very busy day!
Reality always wins in the end.
