Scenario:

Spencer, Smith and Preuss all not named.

How do your rucks look?

I'd go Goldy + Martin
Smith would be more of a chance to get games over Spencer/Preuss IMO.

The fact he played most of last year & 2 out of 3 JLT under Fagan tells me he's in Brisbane's plans
 
I'm giving a theoretical scenario that none of them are named.
And asking what people would look to do.
Oh.

Stef definitely value for money in that case, could go 110+ playing solo for the whole year

If witts were to avg say 80 for the first 6 games (maybe unrealistic) what would his price be? Hoping to Hve him just for a few rounds with the hope to get him to 400-450k and then upgrade.

ave of 80 before his bye in round 9 gets him to 350k. Average of 100 get him to 450k.

It depends on how the 80 average is achieved
 
Plays Grundy, Tippett, Sandi, Goldy, Stef and Mumford in his first 6 games if he gets the gig.
Will get molestered.

FTFY


Sandi has started to slaughter 6 whole farm animals in preparation for the feast.
 
Rucks were Nankilands for a while there but have changed Team around a bit meaning I could go Ryder at R1 & Sandilands R2, like the look of it already!

Have just changed to Goldy/Sandi from Nank/Sandi.

Goldy's first games are vs WCE, GEEL, GWS, WB, FREO, GC.

4/6 vs average ruckmen, two vs Mumford and Sandi.

Z. Smith is a gun, will destroy Goldy :$

Struggling to decide between Goldy and Gawn, with the additional time given to second tier rucks at both North and Melbourne, you wonder wherther or not they will take points off the big dudes.

Also would really like to justify being able to go with Nank and Sandi and spend the cash elsewhere, but its giving me nightmares.

Save 50-60k on Goldy yeah? His second half way hampered by knee/ankle issues. Not sure Gawn can have a better season and Spencer might play too. Goldy can return to 2015 form.

One can only hope, although was interesting to see them put more time into both Daw and Pruess in the pre season, so Goldy might be given more of a hand this year as well, which wouldn't bode well for his scores.

Just for development I reckon, Preuss is a 80% ruckman (not a good forward yet) and Daw is an 80% forward (no tank to run out a game).

Goldy will play solo with chop out from Daw/Brown/Durdin.

Goldy is underpriced based on what he can produce, Gawn not underpriced but can produce Goldy like numbers when Goldy is on song. Goldy played with a few niggles last year too.
