Which Ruckman would you prefer??
Everitt, Keating or French??
All things considered ... Keating.
All three would be great for hawthorn but we are going to get Everitt

Just ask Hawthorn Footy Club and they will tell you all tomorrow when we recruit Everitt and Toia

Terrific, another hack. I hope Freo only get number 80 draft pick for him. I will be very annoyed if Toia is at Hawthorn.
We need young guys, not injury prone outdated players who should retire
No offence Suzi, but we could do without Toia
Toia couldn't get a kick in a street-fight and Everitt is over-priced.
Grab Keating for mine. With our potential in the midfield, we don't need a gun ruck.

suzi, Toia is a dud. D - U - D.
We have players ten times his calibur and he would be worthless running around in the Box Hill reserves.

They aren't allowed to recruit them yet.
Is this Suzi? We don't want Toia.

assuming all will be fit next year...
Keating.
He is younger than Everitt, and more proven than French

None of them.
Over-rated is our need for a 'great ruck hope'. Draft one now from the kids and have some faith in Loats and Campbell.
No more import/stop gap ruck solutions.

Good call, I like it!!! I don't think Everitt would solve our ruck probelms. He's a makeshift forward who lacks genuine ruck skills. If we wanted a ruckman from elsewhere then I would choose Keating. However, I like the thought of throwing Campbell and Loats in at the deep end and see how quick they reach the other end of the pool.
Perhaps we could search for goalkicking forwards (which we need BADLY), and ruck Thompson as well.

I'd rather Keating - he was an important player in this year's Grand Final...he is younger than Everitt, and seems to be the more committed player on the ground. And being a premiership ruckman, he has important finals experience.
Everitt has a lot of growing up to do. St.Kilda let him get away with too much and now he has lost respect from the club, and he thinks he can start fresh at a new club. Well Spider, you are going to have to change 'BIGTIME' if you going to be any good at Hawthorn.
