IF we are down a ruck the choices are Suzie or McEntee. McEntee is the better tap ruck but is coming off injury. Renouf is fitter and a better mark. Neither do a hell of a lot outside of rucking. McEntee looks more raw but has a leap that is bordering on silly.

I dont think there is a lot separating them so I'll go for McEntee.
 
For this week i would go Renouf because he had a rest on Monday. But if it was next week i would go for McEntee
 
Didnt McEntee only get the call up to Box Hill 1s on the weekend because Renouf pulled out? Might have been from Box Hill 2s to AFL seniors in a week!!!

If McEntee had more game time this year I think he would get the nod but I think Suzie will in the circumstances. Either way it is great to see. Will be even happier when Big Max is running around but along with Muston have written off any impact from him in 2008.

Renouf, but he must have been injured to pull out of Monday's game.

From reports he was withdrawn from the side after both Tails and Campbell were injured on sat night to make sure that he didn't get injured playing for Box Hill so he could play against Adelaide if the others dont come up.
 
I think Twister was rested on Monday as cover for this weeks match, don't think he is under an injury cloud. I would think he would be the one to get the call up but Nesty was tearing it up on Monday for BH. His ruck work is just fantastic and he seemed to be getting his hands on it around the ground. He went off early in the last quarter and I don't think he went back on(calf problem perhaps, maybe just cramp he did do a mountain of work).
 
Taylor will not play, Renouf will take his place. Its some time since Taylor and Bobbie have been split up. Renouf is a promising ruckman and good luck to the big fella.
 
injury list had max bailey as available, prob needs to come back through the 2s if this is true but
 
I'm sure Renouf will get the nod, but in the handful (two?) BH games I caught last year McEntee was miles ahead with his ruckwork. Of course a year is a long time in footy and the reports of Renouf this year have been good. Plus Renouf's motor will be a big asset at the top level.

Renouf has been good for the Hillmen. I still like trying to turn him into a KPP Back. McEntee is probably more of the long range option as insurance for Robbie and Max. Tails just continues to surprise.:thumbsu:
 
RENOUF IS NOT A KPP PLAYER!!!!!!! Trust me i have watched him a few times and he is not agile enough. He is an out and out ruckmen period.

That aside how good is it too finally have some real depth in our ruck stocks.

Renouf has heaps of mongrel in him, can take a screamer and has a huge motor.

Mcentee has a prodigious leap and seems to be finally delivering the promise he showed as a junior (mooted as a top 3 pick in the 2005 draft early on)

BiG max looks the jewell in the crown, it's only a question of how well the kneee has recovered and getting himself fit.

In the interim Bob (elevated from rookie list) and Tails (pick 54 05 Draft) have proven themeselves to be a more than competentent and formidable duo.

May have one of the best ruck depths in the league very very soon..

It doesn't surprise me if they build Renouf up as our FB. Remember Mark Grraham when he played for hawthorn. He was put in all sorts of places. Found his prefered area which was CHB.

You shouldnt forget young Mr. Walsh from South Australia. If he can overcome his leg problems he could be another huge impact player.

Dont worry about Big Max... coming along nicely.

Re Renouf and KPP.... still have flashes of his fantastic effort in open country on the wing to run down and tackle a speeding Mark Williams in the intra club game 2 years ago.
 
McEntee because he is simply better in the ruck
where as renouf will learn to play down back
so give mcentee a taste for it now againsta pretty weak ruck duo in griffen and tippet
