Rucks with DPP fwd cover

[timtim]

I had Hale as a Fwd (DPP) all last season and he gave me great cover for my rucks, so I think there is some value in having a Fwd ruck DPP, so long as they're playing regularly and scoring well.

Would you consider Hale again this year with Big Boy holding down the #1 spot?

I was really looking at picking Dixon in the forwards thinking he would be a keeper until the nab. Its not his form that turned me off so much as his role. Last year he benefited with the ruck injuries and spent alot of time rucking. It was quite clear from the nabs that unless GC rucks get injured again, that won't happen this year.

Straight up disagree with this, but that may have something to do with me having a massive mancrush on Charlie.  I owned him last year and this year I want more.

Don't really think it's fair to judge his role on his NAB.  Josh Hall and Gorringe both relieved Nicholls and they are certain to be out of the team round 1 bar injury.  The only real concern is Sam Day, but even if Day is the preferred ruckman, there's no guarantees Charlie won't get some pinch hitting duties. 

I am a sucker for contested stats, and Charlie excels at them.  With the Suns stacked in the mids this year, forward entries should increase and that can only send Charlies score one way, up.

I might see him with rose-tinted glasses and he could burn me pretty badly but I just have too much faith in his SC abilities.
