Zac O'Brien

I'm getting rid of Hallahan a little early to get in O'Brien

O'Brien has pretty good JS, lock him in.


Saw mention of Archie and the Rucking situation somewhere, I'd stay away, as while he's good in a rucking sense, he doesn't get many disposals in the NEAFL, so don't expect to much at the higher level.

Keep in mind we all said the same thing about Nicholls when he started last year. Struggled in the NEAFL averaged 8 possessions the year before and look how that panned out.

Nicholls had probably been playing AFL for more than 18 months before that though :P

Yeah he could do a Nicholls, but don't think he will. Would like to see him do it though.

Definitely thinking of getting him in, but I am guessing he might be sub this week looking at the Lions bench. 

Unless Leppa pulls a swifty and sends Bewick from the field to the Green Vest.
