2016 NAB Challenge: Essendon v Geelong - Saturday 5th March 2:05 -Deakin Reserve

Grimley took a huge grab on the wing. While he hasn't had a big possession game he has shown enough for R3/F8. A lot of that has been due to the poor delivery down forward by the Dons. Add in Goddard/Merrett/Zaha and Daniher to take some attention away he should be a handy pick.

I am Not sure of any stats in this game my app is not working ... I would imagine his stats are not huge and SuperCoach score not massive but TIPPA looks a solid back pocket from a football perspective .... At basement price on what I have seen I would be surprised to not see him lineup for the bombers.

Anyone have the stats ?

If Thurlow is gone for the year that's a pretty significant blow to Geelong.

Looks like it with the way he reacted and the stretcher coming out.

Who the hell is Ruggles? He looked alright out there but I have never heard of him. With Thurlow injured could he be a chance to get games?

RAHILLY re: Ruggles: I thought Tom was pretty good. He gave us that rebound. He could come in. It depends what happens with Jackson.

Rahilly is assistant coach btw.

Interesting. He could be a sneaky one to consider. As I said he was really impressive off half back and I didn't realise he had scored that much.

quinny88 · March 05, 2016, 06:36:18 PM

And just like that the defensive rookies are looking strong again

Still has to be promoted though but if Thurlows injury is long term and he is the one promoted then needs to be seriously be considered.
