NEWS: Gunston said post-game "As soon as I walked in [to the club], [Franklin] and Jarryd Roughead have been great for me and it's really fast-tracked the chemistry that we're starting to build up forward. I love playing with everyone in the forward line and they definitely make it a lot easier for me." Roughead told AFL.com.au "He brings that lead-up style that Adelaide was known for in the past few years and he's slotted in nicely. It's something that 'Bud' and I haven't had in our back pockets because we probably play closer to goal." | ||||
