GWS ruckman Braydon Preuss backed up his quiet performance last weekend with a dominant game, finishing with 44 hit outs and 23 disposals in the VFL on the weekend. 

Author: Shanae Walton

Preuss’ VFL display comes as GWS caretaker coach Mark McVeigh voiced his displeasure with his side’s rucks after their loss to Brisbane.

Dan Hannebery made a return for St Kilda and could come into contention after collecting 29 disposals. 

Elijah Hollands was solid again and continues to build towards a debut, while Massimo D’Ambrosio (Essendon) and Greg Clark (West Coast) were important for their respective teams. D’Ambrosio, however, was reportedly hurt late in the Bombers’ game.
