Besides who knows what happens in the closed sessions.
Also this might be the chance for Blake to bea surprise Norm Smith Medalist.
Blake to tag Brown.

He plays like that he is achance.
I can see him really exploting Brown if things go right due to his running ability.
Brown is used to taking advantage of a ruckman or somene like Hawkins. Copping a runner like Blake should have him gasping for air.

Maybe the $101 for first goal if he's rucking?saintsRrising wrote:Should hae gotten votes for his "sirengate" game.dcstkfc wrote:

Jase can play on Brown, more mobile than Mac obviously. The term 'tag' has been used very loosely, he's a good match up for him, allowing us to get in another smaller type defender into the side in Bakes, but Blake won't be 'tagging' Brown!! I remember the game where he kicked 3 in 5 minutes against the Hawks, and the final when he smashed Adam Goodes, he is a great match up and could be a game breaker!
Original thoughts were OMG what were we thinking but looking at matchups, is a pretty bloody good call on paper. I'm really feelin it for Big Mac though, he'll bounce back and hopefully play in many more to come for us in future years!
