..hey i don't think i've seen folks mentionin' this article on Hampson so i thought i'd throw it out there.. ..i reckon he's a goer, easily play him before Ackland/Cloke in the ruck.. ..the big Setant' ain't no ruckman, the others too early..

I'd love to see Hammer and Zacky in the ruck with kreuzer having stints up forward this year.
But, we will probably need the big hardened body of a Cloke I guess.

A very cheap dream team member I would think.

He seems to have come on a lot quicker than what people expected I think. Ratts & I think Judd have spoken out in the media about him & I do think he's a certain starter in our Round 1 team whereas I think perhaps at the end of last season he was still considered as no certainty but would get an opportunity during the year to play in the seniors. With him, Cloke & Kreuzer in the 1's hopefully this pushes Ackland out of contention or at least will make him really pull his finger out & fight for a spot if he wants it.

Hampson started the game in the ruck in South Africa, so I think that may indicate his status.

Even though he's young and inexperienced, he's already shown a dedication beyond most when considering he hired a personal trainer immediately after last season finished.

Ackland and Cloke are stop-gap measures at best; let the Hammer run free!
