4 rookie ruck strategy

[Ziplock]

I've got leuen and martin atm

Is it a rookie ruck set up if I'm thinking of starting Luenberger and Pederson?  ???

No it's mid priced madness

How could you consider Pederson when Goldie is set for a stellar year

2 Prems worked.

i think as the season progresses you may struggle as its going to be hard to trade rook ruckmen to generate the coin required to upgrade elsewere later in the season.

You do realize that this post was from the 2013 season?

It is impossible to go for a 4 rookie ruck structure this year, there won't be any playing!

after reading this topic, it was interesting to see how it panned out..................Giles was a gun for that season....... not sure about the rest.
These days you dont need 4 playing ruckman, you can go a cheapie for your 4th ruckman to free up cash for other areas of your team.

I need to find my ruck theory and post it in here

Found it

Going back to the rucks in 2013

93 is not a good average for a guy that you just paid top dollar for at his position. That is a 20 ppg drop between the two seasons. For those complaining about Jacobs last season, he only dropped 16 ppg last year. McEvoy averaged 93.3 (11 ppg drop) and yet there was also criticism of his season last year, so Goldstein had a shocker for a premium ruck in 2012.

My point is that unless your name is Dean Cox in the last 5 years I am not paying top dollar for a ruck in SC. Sandilands is about the only guy you could have argued for in that time frame and he has had his own injury issues. All the value rucks have come in at under 500k the last few seasons. The 'warhorse' guys like Goldstein, Minson, Mummy, Maric, Jacobs and co that have rucked alone for extended periods of the season have flopped the year after. Just be careful who you pick and you are probably better off trying to hit with a combo under 500k and try and find this years Goldy/Leuenberger/Minno instead of paying top dollar for a guy in the ruck.

And for the record I started with Goldstein and Leuenberger as my two rucks in 2013

Minson won't be top priced next year. Sandi and Jacobs will be though. I went through this in another thread before the season started but Cox is the only guy that has backed up other then Sandilands before his injury issues. Most of the top rucks the last few years have all been under 500k to start the season.

Top priced rucks are not worth it, plain and simple

The moral of the story, avoid top priced rucks at the start of the year.

kruezzz and luey ftw

NicNat/Kruez or NicNat/Leuey is the way to go IMO.
if any of them 3 has a full preseason then you'd be laughing

[Ricochet]

If their prices are correct in fanplanner I'll be starting all three at this stage and loopholing

What are they priced at Rico? Kruez and Luey would need to be around 250k mark to think about starting all 3..

really?? hmmm its an interesting idea. most people would go Griff @ R3, but an extra $90K to get Kruez wouldnt hurt.
loophole to the easiest 2 games.
