Definitely working on 2 Prem and 2 Rookie ruck, but which 2 Prem

[Sabretooth Tigers]

 ::) :-\

Stuck, stuck, stuck. Taking Stephensen and Pattison R/F as two rookies, S Rowe R/F in the forward line. can afford any two prems. Currently have Mumford and Sandilands and not concerned about byes coz thinking of getting Roughy J as a forw about rd 9/10 if he's starting to fire and had a nice price drop Cannot confidently decide Between Cox, Goldstein, Sandilands and Luenberger. Heeellllllppppppppppppp.

definently mumford with burger IMO, but its ridiculous not to get Giles and Stephenson, especially that your Rowe link is rewened now beacause of his injury

:-\ ??? ;)
Thanks 673
I'll take the mumberger combo to go, but want Rowe as a DPP providing he gets a go in the NAB. If not, will have a look at Giles, as he may be one of the few GWS to do well in price rise. Thanks again for your thoughts.

best rookie rucks are giles and stephensen without question, the question is who is the third best? i would have said rowe, but he maybe injured, great for upgrade mid season, but he maybe not, derickx? a crow rook?

as for your 2 premium rucks , cox will be #1 again, goldy would have been #2 but maybe hmac will steel some points off him so i would pass on him. but for a good backup burger is solid, maybe jacobs worth a look, only ruck and dead easy draw.

For the other one, it gets hard mummy not a high cieling he is a 90 avg ruck for me forever, sandi better but unreliable especially with good back up coming through in the dockers, then you have mcevoy on the 13 bye, i rate him the same as i rate mummy.

[Torress]

no love for big mummy colliwobblers!!???  trading in mummy as soon as swans had their 2nd bye is what made my overall respectable last year!! 1144

i'd back mummy and cox for the two overall best rucks. goldie will be there abouts though. sandi won't cos you HAVE to doubt his ability to get through a season now.

[charliesheen]

mummy is awesome.  just needs to stop getting suspended for tackles :D

[Torress]

those tackles were nothing as well! he is just so big and way stronger than most other players. this excessive force crap is ridiculous. you gotta be MR T style angry when laying tackles!! trengove was robbed for 5 games and that was a massive disgrace.

but the rules are the rules, alot of contact sports have toned it down. its becoming so professional.  but yeah hopefully mummy doesn't sling and get pinged again CS!!! good choice for VC loophole as well

Two rookie rucks I feel very confident will get games this season are Josh Jenkins and Luke Lowden.

Jenkins because since Maric and Moran have left Adelaide they only have Jacobs as a genuine ruck option. Surely they traded in Jenkins to provide backup for him since I don't think Craig or Dowdell are close to getting games.

Lowden I think will get games at Hawthorn. Have said this somewhere else, but I'll say it again. Clarko has said he is ready to make his debut and wouldn't be surprised if he played a lot of senior footy this year.

I find it odd that no one seems to be talking about either of these two!

Sabretooth, i really think that the rucks present (surprise surprise) all and sundry with a good scope of plausible options to spend elsewhere. So settle the rest of the squad where you are comfortable then buy your two premiums.

As we found last year look at those likely to be shouldering the bulk of ruck work and have shown some promise - still not an easy decision requiring much research and thought as to the most suitable pairing - all the best buddy.

 ;) ;) ;D 8)
              Not a bad idea lozza63, but have decided, at this stage at least to go  Mumford  (Swans play GWS twice) and Luenberger (right fit for byes). The RES will begin as Giles and Stephensen, for upgrades after the bye. Now for the biggie of the season, " who will be the Demons top points scorer in SC ?????????
Change of heart           Goldstein   Mumford
                     RES        Giles         Derrickx
Goldstein doubters have a very good look at the whole draw not just the byes.

[The Supercoach]

im just gonna throw it out there - MACINTOSH IS A PREMIUM PLAYER and a ver CHEAP one. Anyone that over looks him without any thougt may end up regretting it.

Out of your picks i would go mummy and burger

[Obese Arachnid]

I thought & i dismissed.

H Mac......oh c'mon.

There is probably more reason... sorry I don't have the energy.

I just got a PM saying i shouldn't be so obstinate.

Fair enough, no more of the obstinate stand.
H Mac is rubbish, if you have him, you are dead in the water.

[Sabretooth Tigers]

Thanks for the suggestions guys and finally decided ( at this stage ) to go :--

Mumford   Luenberger   with RES  J Giles and T Derickz.
Mids  are a little devious in some respects and leave it all for you to work out
Ablett   Swallow A   S Thompson   A Cooney  and the rest rookies. Cheers and goodluck to all and hopefully someone from FF can grab some of the money.

[SydneyRox]

the big Derickx may struggle to play rnd 1. Will play during the year, but I would think he is doubtful for round 1
