Surely one of the talls will be a late out, otherwise the Suns defenders will have a field day when the ball hits the ground.

I thought we were too tall last week. This week we are just taking the piss surely.

Same thing happened last year. I reckon we got to about round 12 and i was happy with the team balance after final teams were announced a total of 2 times. Surprise, we struggled to win a game.

Have we learned nothing?

Yep, but I hope they don't keep hiding him in dead man's corner, & actually give him a run in the middle where he won his 2 Liston medals  Wink

Gibbons looks just too slow and too small to repeat that at AFL level, and he seems miles off on the aerobic factor even hanging around in the pocket!

Agree....25 degree heat and sunny so we will need a lot of rotations, reckon Gibbons can take his turn in the middle.....

From what I’ve seen, he has spent as much time in the midfield as he has in the forward line.

The fact of the matter is that there is a huge difference between VFL and AFL.  At best, Gibbons is in the process of adjusting to AFL tempo and pressure; at worst, he will be an important addition to our NBs team.
