Rucks- petrie smith

[RobertHarvey35]

any think i might be a good idea to start zac smith as 2nd ruck and put petrie as 6th or 7th fwd??? smith is gunna be number one ruck for GC. just wanna know ppl's thoughts on this one. cheers

could be risky
he may play every week but i doubt he'd score high consistently

I'm thinking maybe a rookie ruck could work next year. Should have a few that play to share the load incase some turn out to be duds (but good back up).

Smith has shown signs in the VFL side. May not be great but should gain a good 150k at least to be a decent cash cow.

Right now, It might just be in my plans to fit in guns elsewhere.

smith may not be the number 1 ruck if they get robbie campbell  :'( or fraser

I am thinking of trying the bargain ruck theory this year. Anyone though about Charmo> He will be fit and super keen

[Hawka]

i am thinkin bout charman only if he moves or a injury to clark or luenburger

Clarke showed glimpses in the forward line at the end of the year with his 5 goal haul and his contribution in the ruck wasn't fantastic. You would like to see him in a forward pocket and push Staker to the back line where he looks good. I would share ruck work with Luey and Charmo barring injury but you would think Charmo would be down around 100k

But he'll get games which is all you need for rookies :P.

Charman has alot of potential at that price. Will really depend if he gets game time. After last season, Clark has been moved onto the ball for longer periods of time due to what he CAN do. If Clark moves, probably a good chance. If he moves, still a good chance.

charman should be around 100k and hp of course smith will play and make money but he may score less and go up less if he is not number 1 ruck
