With Bailey down I thought Roughy might be a handy DPP ruckman. 

He was great last year in the ruck, hence the pricetag.

If he plays well this weekend I'm locking him with Cox.

Thoughts?

huge risk i'd say
i cant lock any rucks in at moment, thinking of a 3 rookie ruck start free up some cash for a prem mid instead

Phasir

he won't be in the ruck at all this year so its back to the unpredictable scoring of a FF who's 2nd choice FF at the club, pass for me

Locinator

Its hard to say. I reckon he could be a great pickup because he did have a career season last year, he is 24 years old, likely to go 100+ again and he has never had a long term injury like last year.
BUT
Like you said I wouldn't lock him in unless he plays this weekend and scores 80+

Windigo

Too much risk involved. Not worth a punt at this stage I wouldn't think.

Reports coming out of Hawthorn that he will actually play Centre-Half Back.

Highly doubt he will play in the ruck - achilles injuries are not good for jumping.

Way to underdone. Can't pick him.
