Position 2014 SC Rucks

[Werewolf]

I know this has already been answered, but - for more perspective on Thurlow, he's been dropped from the VFL squad in recent weeks. So yeah, nah.

Do you reckon he'll get a game if half of Essendon's list is suspended?

 

[Mercuri Rising]

Where would Cam Wood fit in if he was promoted to the seniors? No idea of how likely or otherwise it would be, just wondering. I don't know a whole lot about Carlton, but the impression I got of Warnock is that he's a great tap ruckman but a spud around the ground. So Blues fans, does Wood offer enough to be plonked forward as a 2nd ruck?

Nah, plenty of competition from the Aberfeldie U16s, he'll be up against it.

Wood's been good all year when resting forward kicked goals in the NAB & VFL. Can clunk a mark and is a decent set shot unlike Warnock.

Thoughts on Billy Longer as a downgrade option for hickey? with Hickey gone until r16 his JS is pretty good and has low BE (26)

Just looking at Todd Goldstein's numbers.
His averages for the last 4 years have been so similar yet producing very different SC scores.

SC Average

2014 - 89.4
2013 - 113.5
2012 - 93.0
2011 - 113.2



I for one will be jumping on him next year!!

Can anyone pinpoint what the issue is this year..? North Supporters?
He has scored back to back tonnes in the last 2 games.. maybe some bigger scores are on the way.

Last 2 games rucked V Go west and Z.Smith first game back from injury.He might be one to look at next year.

No idea what the scoring set up is but have noticed rucks getting close to 50 hit outs but only 10 possesions and stuff all marks are getting 100's. I have a feeling it might be something like effective hitouts or similar is now being counted in the scoring or is more valuable than previous years.

I got the big Russian not happy Gawn is now getting games.Hopefully the Russian can stay fit and Gawn and flower right off.

Similar? He's been down in every single category and is getting less hit outs. That's why he's scoring 20 pts less.

Hope he stay down abit he could be next years sauce.vardy will be cheap next year still unproven though.

Burger yes if somehow West is traded/de-listed.

 

[Chaisa]

Kruezer will be another good cheap ruck option for 2015.

Is Sandi injured?

He's been the second most traded out player this week. It seems ridiculous to trade him because of the bye...

Will be really funny if Sandi suddenly becomes a POD after this week!

You really have to question anyone who thinks trading out a player who's averaging 116.5 is a winning move.

Judd_Magic was planning on trading him out when his bye arrived only a few weeks back. Wonder if he did?

To to spud Goldy I believe

 

[Jiska]

Round 10 I will upgrade Sandi to Goldy to avoid round 10 bye and then hopefully have set and forget rucks for the rest of the year.

Quoted for follow up..

LOL Goldy 74SC last night is now averaging 87 for the season. 29 points per game less than Sandi

Relax I didn't do it even though the idea was in my mind.

JM showing restraint. I like it. Great move.

Even if I wanted to do the Sandi > Goldy trade I had other areas of my team to upgrade first. LOL!
