Looks like Draper’s omission last week due to a sore knee was legit- no internal sanction.
Nah, they are just holding him back for another week so that you will think that.
The reality is the internal sanction was 4 weeks. It has been misrepresented as the time he is to spend away from his podcast.
'* Note: the above is complete BS.
It’s hard to keep up with the ambiguity of EFC.
They deserve all the histrionics that come their way.
And how dare Scott come out and say he loves working with Sam.
Meniscus. Out until after the bye possibly according to Edmund.
6-8 weeks.
Oh well, better than a flare up of the groin. Get it mended and get him back on the park.
Thank god we got Goldy
Starting to think Draper cant be relied on need to shop for a ruck.

we just need to get good without him and turn him into the second coming of clarke keating and roll him out only in September every year.

I would stop planning anything around him. He’s injury prone, and when he’s not, he’s frustratingly inconsistent.

Goldy is going to be cooked soon. He’s not young. Bryan is going to have to play at some point.

There is a real window here for Bryan.
Goldy won’t be sole-rucking week in, week out.

Our ruck stocks are abysmal.
Injury prone, unprofessional, unskilled ruck.
Ancient, close to retirement ex gun
Out of favour, soft, soon to be traded/ delisted youngster
Absolute novice
We need to bring someone else in over the mid season or off season draft

We don’t need world beater rucks to be a successful footy team, other than Melbourne with Gawn what was the last premiership side that had a star ruckman?

Such a positive spin there Alex.
I reckon we’ve had worse ruck stocks

We don’t even just have an average ruckman who can consistently play. That’s the issue.
When?
Bellchambers, Giles, McKernan

At least Bell chambers was good for 16+ games a season.

Yep. A Pittonet level ruck is all you need. An honest toiler who can compete and win his share of hit outs and/or effectively nullify the opposing ruck to an ok standard.

Bryan hasn’t even been given a proper chance yet. Far too early.
