I agree that at this early stage that Fort is the best ruck rookie available, but given Geelongs ruck history and depth unless Fort performs above and beyond I don't hold much prospect of security.

Cheers, will keep a close eye on him in pre-season.

Nothing really wrong with it - if Fort doesnâ€™t play, one forward will go. Just sit and see

A more settled team with Wingard back to forwards and R2 with Martin.

Definitely your most balanced team yet.

Good team to sit on for now.

Consistent Mid 90's average, I'll take that at D3 for now. Also considering Hurley, Andrews, Witherden. Whats are your thoughts on Jack or Wingard. Thinking I'll try and fit both in.

I prefer Wingard, will get a lot more mid time with Titch out.
Although seeing as Lynch is now at the Tiges, Riewoldt might float up the ground like Richo in 2008.
Fitting both in is definitely not a bad idea.

Cheers TC.. Nick will be a true centre half forward this year.. let's hope Lynch gets his knee right early.
