Hopper having knee issues arise 2 rounds in raises massive alarm bells for me, I honestly might even jump off as it would be my only realistic ticket to English,Setterfield and Ziebell.
I don't know if I'd call having your leg twisted under 200kgs of opposition tacklers 'knee issues', unless using the strictest literal definition I suppose.

Maybe a case of a little from column A and a little from column B. He doesn't have to make a big leap to get back to 120 scoring. McCluggage has been the one who is clearly affected by those two.
Neale is enjoying getting first hands to it but giving off a quick handball to a McCluggage, Ashcroft or Dunkley, whereas before if McCluggage was covered he basically had to break out and kick it himself because Lyons or Matho or Dev wasn't going to do much more of anything with it.

Mmmmm......Sam Mitchell loves to tag, with Simpkin not playing this week, LDU will probably get tagged.
Reckon it's pretty much guaranteed. He put Maginess on Simpkin late last season, LDU is certainly the next target, probably would have been anyway even if Simpkin did play. On the other hand, I think it is tougher to fully stop inside mids and contested players than players that are more outside.
