Well if you ask me Betheras is my brownlow winner and we have missed him. I would go so far to say we've proberly missed the finals because MM dropped him. Infact i'm so pissed off about it i'm going to be sick . He won't always have the best game but for me I think he holds the team together. He gives us confidence. Against geelong we didn't have Richo and Wakelin so you can't blame Betheras for that!
Yep we NEED Rooop (and Burns of course) in our side ASAP, but only if he gets to paly midfield where he belongs. He gives his all and is a great mark and rebound player. Apart from the Geelong game, where he was just given an impossible role, he has been solid and reliable. He makes far fewer turnovers than others still in the team. Unfortunately I don't think he will get a go this week as he didn't do much in the last half (the only half I got to see) for Williamstown on the weekend, but then again neither did his opponent.
The wait is almost over.....and I am over the wait

hear hear! we want rupert! can you imagine how hard it is to start on the bench every week then be expected to dominate from the first run. neon leon has an impact when coming off the bench. just give the guy a go - he has talent.
Rup is important cos he can feed the ball out to the runners, and he can win the hard ball, which we haven't been doin enough of lately. Please bring him back and start him in the centre square.
It'll help take pressure off O'Bree, who in many games drops off at the end, although he didn't last week, which was a positive.
Rupert in the midfield is a must!!!! People need to understand that he is not a backman. Obree is crying out for help in the midfield and Rupert along with Burns and Johnson are the solution.

EVERYONE IS A COLLINGWOOD SUPPORTER ITS JUST THAT SOME PEOPLE ARE IN DENIAL
