I am not hearing much talk of Shane Mumford, and he is only in 5.68% of teams.

Has a huge ceiling as he showed last year, not only racks up the hitouts but also tackles and gets disposals around the ground which helps his scoring compared to other ruckman. Has had his first full pre season in about 5 years and does the majority of the Giants ruck work.

A lock at R1 for me.
Yep, same.

I think a lot are scared off by the fact he's never played a full season and to a lesser extent his price.

The rest are on the Goldy/NicNat/Belly bandwagons.

Mummy and Ivan have been my rucks since day one.

Samsturmfels

What % of teams own Josh Gibson?

batt

Harry Lumumba.  Don't really know how popular he is but think he deserves way more hype.  Could comfortably be a better pick than Newnes.  Midfield role, has shown his high ceiling before, fresh start.  Plenty to like.

Dylan Shiel

Same price as Crouch who has all the hype but I reckon Shiel will explode this year and push 107-113

trying to find a way to get this bloke in my side without sacrificing to much really think he could be POD of the year.

This has been my ruck combo for the last few weeks.

Mumford's first 2 games are against St Kilda and Melbourne, I'd be surprised if he doesn't get 140 in both of those!

I think so too. Just haven't got the space for him, and hope I don't regret it

Tossing up between him, Ward or Barlow tough decision

What about Nathan Jones?

Considering him AF, I'm not sure about SC. Tyson will get tagged more this year so we could see Jones explode

Houli,

Best record of playing games over last 4 years with defenders - 86 (Simpson, Broadbent, Adcock - 85).

Ave'd 91.6 in '13.

I'd be thinking he's in the 85-90 range-ish this year.

Still not sure about houli, no room for him for me. What about Wagner, winner of The Recruit?
