and even though its only fantasy, he's the 3rd highest scoring ruckman for the year in Supercoach.He's the highest rating player in the league over the last month.
At present Marshall is the only AFL standard ruckman on our list IMO.Looks like the Saints have finally struck a very good one here.
It makes me wonder about all the talk about throwing coin at ruck trades (Goldstein, Draper)

Although it wouldn’t surprise me if the Saints started playing Marshall at half back flank
Thought exactly the same thing. Just shows how clueless the football department is. He was better than mcartin as well. But you know poor paddy and all that. Billy was strong in contest so the bozo kept picking him.I saw Marshall play with Sandy early last year and my immediate thought was how is this guy not in our best 22.
I think Marshall is our best "find" since Jack Steven in 2008. He has the potential to be a 10 year answer to our ruck and if he continues on his current trajectory he could be every bit as good as Grundy - and that is someone you can build a team around.

It’s kinda like we need a ruckman like Hickey....Marshall is a absolute ripper , however I feel the guy needs a bit more help at times , he can't do it all , we need to have another player who can play in the forward line and also can compete in the ruck , is that Draper ? or do we get a Bilcavs or risk King pinch hitting in the ruck.
But Marshall has been huge for us in the ruck and he only needs help and Bruce doesn't cut it as a ruckman.
Goldstein is a very good ruckman , but is doing his best to extend his career - he knows a good showing this year could get him some easy money in the future and whoever signs him will be getting a burnt out ruckman .
Yeah someone just to help if Marshall gets hurtIt’s kinda like we need a ruckman like Hickey....
Hickey was tried in the forward line and was no good.It’s kinda like we need a ruckman like Hickey....
Well the club apparently want Marshall playing majority forward, strange when he's killing it in the ruck. And yeh Hickey was no good forward, but at least if we kept him it would've stopped Bruce and more importantly Acres having to go into the ruck.Hickey was tried in the forward line and was no good.
He'd be playing for Sandringham if he were still on our list.
I've been saying from the start we'd be stupid to move Marshall forward.Well the club apparently want Marshall playing majority forward, strange when he's killing it in the ruck.

But all the draft talk ATM is about St Kilda looking at rucks (Goldstein/Draper) rather than forwards.After taking Jack Mayo mid year, i kind of suspect.
a) They don't want Marshall or Battle to play forward.
b) They are after forward's as a priority over ruck/forwards.
Yeh well the development of Acres is enough evidence to me that he definitely should not be playing ruck.I've been saying from the start we'd be stupid to move Marshall forward.
And I don't agree it's a good idea to play a ruck who's ordinary forward such as Hickey, just so he can give a bit of relief in the ruck when Marshall needs a spell. I'd prefer Acres to be honest.
I doubt the 5 minutes he plays in the ruck every now and then is having a huge impact on his development.Yeh well the development of Acres is enough evidence to me that he definitely should not be playing ruck.

His lack of endeavour and energy on the footy field seems like a bigger issue to me.
