Newman racking them up in the back line, the new kick in rules suit him
Might be the one we rue trading more than Hanners or Gaz

Hannebery being "rebuilt" apparently. Like the bionic man?
Sam Edmund on Twitter: "Big admission by @stkildafc coach Alan Richardson on @SENBreakfast on Dan Hannebery. "I wouldn't be surprised if it's longer than Round 4. The problem is that he just needs to be rebuilt.""
I thought the story with Hanners at the Swans was too much training. Never took a break. Now we hear he hasn’t trained properly for 2 years?
I believe the start of his problems have been attributed to him trying to do too much on his return from the knee injury he sustained in the 2016 GF. After completing his rehab, he was back training at full capacity before Christmas, and winning the time trials. It was after Christmas that soft tissue injuries - groin and calf - started to set in, and these have continued to limit the amount of training he's been able to do for the last two years, as well as affecting his game day performances. The injury problem initially reported by the Saints was a hamstring issue, something he didn't have (as far as was reported) during his last two years at the Swans.
That makes sense.
A bit more context:
Hannebery 'needs to be rebuilt': Richardson
Personally I thought Newman was mishandled (i.e. played in wrong position) and under utilised (i.e. played in NEAFL) last year. I suspect Carlton will get more out of him this year.
The cynics will no doubt sneer that he's only playing for Carlton and that he's too soft, but I think he's a good footballer
