it has to be green, as stated above, or giles.
Giles- 8th overall points for rucks, 7th highest average for rucks that played over 20 games
Greene- just inside top 50 overall points mids, 34th highest midfield average (19 games played)
Zorko- 36th for overall points forwards, 9th highest forward average.

Green averaged about 15 points more than the second highest rookie competitor gibson (yes, I'm just estimating)
Zorko averaged about 12 higher than second highest forward competitor Treloar

Giles- average 82, 20 games
rookie rucks this year (from memory)-
Campbell- 46, 7
Jenkins- 61, 11
Redden- 59, 9
Stephensen- 52, 8
Longer- 57, 5

I think that's about it?
so giles played 9 more games than his nearest positional rookie competitor, and averaged over 20 points more.

clear winner.

if you dispute this, you're wrong.

imagine having to go into this season with 2 pricey rucks- mcevoy, mumford, leuen, sandiland, mcintosh, Ryder, all went down with LTIS, while players like goldstein just sucked. Unless you went like cox/ maric, you would have been forking out like 300k+ extra cash by not starting giles.

just quoting to establish that giles is the only legitimate pick.

If Giles was the only pick we wouldnt be having this conversation on the thread.

I found the blokes who kept giles too long fell behind people who had maric/cox combo pretty quickly

Sorry, totally did not see your first response to my comment.

Basically yeah, the only good rookie ruck was giles. Some rookie rucks were reasonable as cash cows, but giles was the only one that let you go a 1/3 combo and remain competitive in the ruck line, to get another ruck of around his average you would have had to fork out like 300k more, while players like zorko, greene had players like treloar and gibson that weren't super far off their averages.

Zorko you had the option to trade him in- it was pretty hard to miss out, giles if you didnt start with him you were way way way behind the pack.
