Which Rucks?

Goosey

Still unsure of R1, Gawn and Goldy are still a chance but pretty sure Sandi is R2 lock with Nankervis at F4. Toying with Martin for R1, this frees up cash for elsewhere.

Have to say this has been the toughest pre-season yet with regards to just locking in a draft team!!! Let alone finalising it for Round 1  :o

Mat0369

Goldy, Sandi and one of Cameron, Preuess or Witts at R3.

_wato

NankWittiLands for me.

Risk v reward is massive.

The thing I like the most is that the rest of my squad is good.

If the rookie situation ends up as bad as it looks this may be the best option.

Witts is the best rookie option in the ruck/forward line, I'll personally be confident going into head to head battles against Taranto/WHE/Turner/McCarthy/Ainsworth/Bowes/Schoenmakers. I really like Taranto but I reckon he'll have down days like any first year player, the chance of being rested is also high.

Currently sitting on a side with Nank at F6 and a super stacked midfield. Just need Otten to get named and I'll be content with Marchbank at D3.

I'm not sure there is enough defender rookies to have marchband d3. Hampton yes. Have to be concerned with hibberd only playing half a game. Otten should make it but who knows. Even Stewart how does he fit into the cats lineup? He isn't a certainty when you consider lonergan,taylor, Mackie, tuohy henderson thurlow ruggles blicavs.

To be fair Stewert played today with all those players you just listed. But it is different with 24 players instead of 22.

And looks like they're experimenting with playing Taylor up forward in JLT so that could open up a spot for Stewart

Stewart should be ok as the third tall as long as they keep playing Taylor forward. As Harry has given nothing up forward in all 3 JLT games it's starting to look worrisome :-\

Sure does,  team looks great wato.   not for me though,  still believe in quality  so goldy/sandi at this stage.   still tossing no r/f cover as well.

RaisyDaisy

This round has confused the shower of me lol

Gawn and Goldy went poor, Ryder finally popped up while Nank and Sandi solidified their spots

So many options. Too many actually and it's confusing which way to go now

meow meow

Hickey and Stefan were the last players to have amazing games so surely they're the new flavour of the week?!

meow meow

McKernan > All though

To be honest, I may even pick Ben Long as I'm reasonably confident he'll get a game in round 3.

And now Hickey puts his hand up as a sole ruck just to further confuse the issue.
