    Do people think Clarke is only good as a forward tagger?

    Would he be no good tagging Oliver who has lots of issues against Finn McGuiness tagging him?

    He used to be a midfield tagger. And had the tank to do a similar job to McGuinness.

    I wonder if we’ll play them without a tagger pre-finals and keep him up our sleeve

    I’m not keen for Clarke to play again. Just not up to it.

    Wouldn’t mind Francis being the sub today. Has the versatility to play back and forward.

    Agreed Captain- don’t see what Clarke brings to the table at this stage as a sub. A case could be made to use him as a tagger but obviously Horse and Co don’t think he could tag either Patracca or Oliver and there’s no point in him being a sub just to run around with hardly any impact.

    A number of RWOers have commented on his difficulties in the area of defensive effort and locking down. But I've noticed that he is remarkable slow on his feet. Took me a while to notice - but maybe it affects his defensive efforts?

    Loose translation from the Latin is - I am tall, so I hit out.

    Hi RWOers, I heard there is a 20+ year member recognition thing on today but can't find out when nor where. Does anyone here know more?

    Suspect that Paps was never going to play with finals sewn up. Will be interesting to see what happens in the finals if Clarke shuts down Salem today

    I was surprised he was selected. But now I'm hoping there hasn't been some kind of set back.
