Nic Nat would of been on a lot of radars last year for start sides, but he clashed really bad with bye players, Goldy in particular.Yeah fair enough, last year's winner started with NicNat, who would have been cheap because of a shocking 2014 (only avg 90)
You need somebody with a decent scoring history at least
Agree to disagree.
Not many ruckman pick up 30+ touches, 10+ marks, 50+ hitouts in a game as shown by Stef against the WB last year in round 23.
Jacobs a better tap ruckman though, that's about it.
I've already been trying this. Makes other lines so much stronger. Which makes up the difference.I think I might start a "light R2". Just not sure who yet.
Stef all day this year over Sauce.In terms of hitouts to advantage
so in 2016 who is Stef rucking too:
Rocky, Beams, Hanley, Bell, Zorko, Robinson,
who is Jacobs rucking too:
Rory, Crouch * 2 Thompson
I know who I'd prefer to be tapping it down to
Good points. Who is your R2. Im really considering Blic with his tank and possesions around the ground. I am even going cold on Jacobs

You've missed the point.
FLEXIBILITY BRO.
Quote me when Sauce gets 30+ touches in a match
Yeah agree 100%Have Sauce at the moment. It appears that he will be a POD around here!
Sauce doesn't need 30+ touches to go big.
He had only six games with 20+ touches, but still scored over 110 twelve times, including seven scores over 130.
Goldstein himself has never had 30 touches in a game.
Not saying Stef is a bad choice, he's a solid R2. But your disposal stat is irrelevant when it comes to a ruckman's scoring ability.
Yeah agree 100%
I'd prefer Stef's strengths over Sauce's
Should have worded it better but it was late - I meant, WORST case scenario you could use 2 trades to mitigate the risk of losing ~$200k in value. IF goldy scores 80 & 80 first 2 games, whereas someone like Lobbe scores 120, 120 - it would almost be worth using 2 trades to trade goldy out then back in. After all, 2 trades saves you 200-250k, which is what you would make from you cash cows/ rookies anyway!I can't see the logic in picking Goldy initially and even considering the prospect of using 2 trades to dump him and bring him back in. Unless he gets an injury the spot his his for the long haul imo. If you think he may drop in price, the only startegy is to start without him and bring him in later as an upgrade imo. At least that is only one trade (possibly) and the initial cash spent elsewhere. Trades are too valuable to be wasting imo. I'll be starting with him and if he drops in value, so be it. I can't see him being that much of a disaster to be worth worrying about.
Great stuff.for those interested, here's a F3 loophole analysis done on TS

Go Mitch FWIW. Younger and rawer = less chance of playingGreat stuff.
I'm personally paying $15k extra for loopholing either M.King (MEL) as they play heaps on Sunday/Monday.

Stefs HO>adv% is quite good but he also racks up his numbers through high amount of disposals around the ground. Wouldn't his possessions drop somewhat with such a strong midfield group returning around him thus hurting his scores?

Wouldn't say there's daylight between them.
Like your point about the midfield taking his points. Consider for a moment how many wins the Lions will have this year.
They will score less points than winning sides, with the highest averages going to Rockliff & Beams (IMO). Guys like Zorko and Hanley can bob up for an occasional 120+ as well, stealing a lot of points away.
Jacobs will play in a team with more wins (but not by much), with less guns taking away his points. Proved he can average 115, and I think he can do that again. Considering he is priced lower than that, this means he is under-priced (for me anyway).
Stef and Sauce are both solid R2's, but I think Sauce will come out in front. Only just though!
AGHGHGHGH!!!, you pricks are making this ruck thing really hard. Before you started using facts and common sense I had it sorted. FFSStef > daylight > Jacobs.

Just grab Goldie and flip a coin for Jacobs and Stef and get back to working on the back line.AGHGHGHGH!!!, you pricks are making this ruck thing really hard. Before you started using facts and common sense I had it sorted. FFS
I forgot Asho's mate daylight!!! FWIW I'd have him as the second best ruck again Goldy>daylight>stef/jacobsStef > daylight > Jacobs.

LOL. It's not hard at all. Right now I'm sticking with Mumford (high risk POD) as my R2 but Stef is my next choice without doubt if I change my mind.AGHGHGHGH!!!, you pricks are making this ruck thing really hard. Before you started using facts and common sense I had it sorted. FFS
Who's daylight ?!?I forgot Asho's mate daylight!!! FWIW I'd have him as the second best ruck again Goldy>daylight>stef/jacobs
I'm still not convinced he ever got it, even after I spelt it out to him. He's probably going to ask again this year in the defenders thread, but in italics or somethingWho's daylight ?!?
My ruck ranking is:
Goldstein Mumford Stef Nicnat Jacobs Gawn.
I've gotta gut feel that Mummy will get through the bulk of games this season (18+) and be right up there as a top 2 ruckman. Man's a beast. Fingers X he stays healthy...a risk im currently willing to make.
