2nd ruck spot

[CrowsFan]

Good choice RB. Although for the record I am playing both cos I am forced to. Smith in rucks, Petrie in forwards

[charliesheen]

westhoff going to pitch in with rucking?

[roo boys!]

Yep probably, Trengove can't go all day.

Smith - 69 :( I think i made the wrong move :(

Also had Harris on the bench! Argh.

[Maca24]

I disagree, i would have said smith last week, and I will probably say smith again this week.  Apparently the ball was not going to petrie at all in the forward 50.

If you see petrie kicking goals against the tigers, then go petrie.

Otherwise I would go smith.

Ill hold you to that CS. l'm confident on this one. :P

Smith 69. Told you so ;)

Shoulda listened to you Maca :(

69 is  a good score for backup ruck.  I am happy with that anyway.

no brogan, hard to argue against going smith.

[roo boys!]

Yeah that's true, the idea was there. I would have been filthy with myself if I went Petrie and Smith scored a ton.

I will be going for Petrie after all. Could kick a bag. Looked pretty good at training on Thursday, and I'll be at the game on Sunday cheering him on ;)

This is where I last checked the thread thinking good...his second ruck has got the gig.
At least Smith didn't stink it up...he may outscore Petrie yet but atm I'm happy I've gone with the RooBoy RooBoy...perhaps you should chang your name...shame on you. ;)

I know :'( The poll was telling me Smith an I decided 2 mins before lockout and I would check the poll and whoever had the most votes I would put on.
Maybe I should make my name "The FF Failer-Dont take my advice"

Do go soft on us...toughen up...you're meant to be a shinboner...show some spirit :)

Personally, I think it is a coin flip, with the way north have been playing, so I would simply go for the form player.

The thing I 'disagreed with' is that you should not neccessary choose someone simply because they cost a bit more
For example:

Petrie vs Smith
Krakoar vs Tapscott/Darling/etc
Knights vs Tapscot/Darling/etc

I would actually be inclined to start tapscott/darling over knights/krakoar (depending on the opposition as well) in the future weeks.

You're right about not choosing a player simply because they cost more...in the earlier rounds Lower got games for me whilst I benched Otten and there would be numerous other times where I've done this in the past but Petrie has some runs on the board...he isn't cheap because he is a rookie.

thanks, yeh otten --> lower is another good example .
