In terms of value for money, im going to say Nick Davis.
Brisbane will want too much for Aker and he would want a fair salary, Davis couldnt demand as high a wage and with his career on the line at his 3rd club, he could be a real pick up.

I voted Aker - but if we could get Everritt we'd be unstoppable I reckon.

Yeh but RJ, that doesnt do much for PJ and the Russians development.
We've already lost 2 decent ruckman to other clubs, one has a premiership, one will be AA this year.

Polak. Would cost us the least, is the youngest and has the greatest upside.

They dont call him Polhack for no reason, apparently hes gone backwards since being drafted.
Gardiner is a spud. Hasn't played a good match in years and would be beaten convincingly by Nicho and Dutchy in an agility test.
Medhurst is inconsistant and hasn't proved much up to this point of his career.
Polak - see above.
Davis is a sook and has always had problems at his clubs, so he would be a distraction.
Everitt is old, injury-prone and not needed in our ruck division.
There is only one player we need:
AKER
A superstar, Brownlow Medallist, 3 time Premiership player, multiple All-Australian and Best & Fairest winner, an experienced match-winner who still has five years left in him easily!

Looks like AKER will be a tiger next year. With Jamar struggling would anyone want Micky Gardiner at the club for nothing?

Aker for me. I like Polak's potential but he has other issues that are a worry.
Jamar will be right. As will PJ when he returns next year.
Both are better prospects than Gardiner.

PJ will be good for many years for us. Next year will see some big things from him.
Aker is the only one of that bunch i would even consider.

Jamars shown enough, hes only 21 or 22 remember.
And PJ will be back next year.

I think Canna7 is spot on.
Gardiner and Everitt are broken down has-beens. Our ruck division is fine, if anything we need to develop another young ruckman to lead the charge in the post-White era.
Davis is trouble.
Polak may benefit from getting out of Freo.
However Aker is the money man - get him on board!!
