One thing you're not taking into account is the interchange cap. Teams can't afford to have two specialist ruckman on the field... and having Tippett as R2 would be a change of tactic, Mumford's gone, and Naismith is definitely not a like for like replacement!

They better not take his DPP status away.

From what Ive heard hes played mostly forward in the VFL

Not a minute in the ruck, still a beanpole would get pummelled

[TheAnt]

He'll pinch hit in the ruck in the VFL next year, but definitely better as a forward/wing.

[Vinny]

He needs to bulk up big time in order to get AFL games, if not he is just a VFL player. Probably a R4 spot for him since he has DPP. I actually didnt know he was this skinny.

If you're basing it off the picture that was before his first pre-season. He'll be approaching 100kg by the end of this pre-season

[Vinny]

Well I just googled his name, haha. Fair enough hope you are right mate.

[stew42]

Yep, 93kg as of Oct. Looking a lot more appealing as a R4

Says that he would've played seniors if he hadn't injured his ankle.

Yeah he's packing in the weight and could play. He is a gun

[Jroo]

McBean loses his ruck status, making him a forward only.

[Ricochet]

And is no longer in my team as the link between NicNat and the rucks.
Oh and NicNat loses fwd status ::)

[Nige]

I'm gutted. The McJesus was locked at R4.  >:(
