If today told us anything, it is that our structure looks better with the 2 ruck combo.

Agree

I assume Soldo will come in or Nank or perhaps they run with CCJ as a backup with Chol taking first mantle although I don’t think we have to worry to much next week against Sydney now they have lost their ruck.

Think we need a proper first ruck & that’ll now revert to Soldo. Chol goes better as 2nd ruck while Soldo seems to be at his best when it isn’t solely left up to him.

Not that there is a good time for an injury, but Nank was in excellent form last week and took it up to Gawn today. Real shame having a setback now along with a heap of others injured.

Absolutely. Nankervis has been in great form since coming back in, especially to a team that’s struggling. Hard position is the ruck - always open to injury. It’s why part-timers in the key forwards should never go in there. Grigg in 2017 was a one off & even that got found out dreadfully in the 2018 Prelim.

The only exception was for some reason KMac went up for one centre bounce and Gawn got a clear tap but cant remember whether Melb got a goal from it.

Diabolical decision...

Reckon it was to give Mabs a short 2min break before the final 5minutes.

Big loss. Took it right up to everyone's new favourite Marshall last week & was was certainly not disgracing himself against Gawn. Looked to have his athleticism finally back.

Back when the Western Bulldogs were called Footscray, what did we know syndesmosis as? Badly sprained ankle or torn ankle ligaments?

Yeah me too.
Was back to his agressive best so its rough timing but at least not a recurring groin

It's the new injury buzzword.

Whatever happened to osteitis pubis? 10 years ago every third player had it, now you barely hear about it.

Can't wait to see a fit and firing Nank back on the park.

He brings the hardness that makes our little blokes walk taller.
