I'm hoping we can drop them both. They picked a bad day to be crap, when pretty much everyone else looked good.
Going to be an interesting call, only a few weeks back they were both locks on their wings. Brando’s form before last night has been good though
No way.
At least Ellis can kick and take a mark.
McIntosh is this year's Conca. See ya later pick 37 will do.

Short Houlli and Ellis in one team is not ideal. Said thing for Short is Ellis does better squibbing a contest than short does putting his body in.
Blotted his copybook with that effort at half back. Kick could have been better but he was clear enough, and we all know he can brace and take the mark in worse situations. Frustrating. He was OK generally though.
The kick set him up to get hurt. But he wasn’t willing to get hurt unfortunately.

Punt Road End. The best place to watch The Tiges.
Why would you be willing to get hurt. You get hurt, you miss games. Use awareness to ensure you keep playing and help the team. Never got that you need to get injured and the applause makes up for ruining your career. Drummond comes to mind, made a mistake, then tried a corageous act that ruined his knee and his career.
There’s a difference between getting injured and getting hurt. Back in to any pack and you’ll likely cope a knee in the back which will hurt but not necessarily injured. More likely getting injured taking a screamer and falling 2m than Brandon committing to that mark.
Was nowhere near anyone else to get hurt, he just thought there was and skimped it. It was a poor effort, he didn't want to put his body on the line in the wet. Saying that thought both Sidebottom and Phillips were pretty ineffectual unlike in Round 2 so credit there.
