Just wondering about my ruck choice as I have:
Tippett and kreuzer with warnock and Fitzpatrick as my emergencey

however I would like to free up some cash with some underated players who can rise in value or be potent.

I heard Tippett can be inconsistent and I have Jackson trengrove in my backline. Is there any rookie who would boom in the back that's cheaper so I could free trengrove for the ruck thus trade warnock? Or should I keep warnock there? And what about hille instead of kreuzer or ottens? Who would be cheaper and more effective or is my ruck potent enough

paddy ryder could be another one too look at! im still torn between either kruezer or tippett,
i think ryder will be an interesting one hes going to be the number 1 ruckman for atleast the first half of the season, will he earn more points or less once hille has a decent fitness level ? and possibly laycock in the team ?

also dont think fitzpatrick will get many games,
Lobbe from port is already earmarked to be number 2 under brogan,

Yea I have Lobbe already (didn't have warnock) just looking to save money to upgrade my midfield (I have Palmer, prismall, cotchin) that I'm looking upgrade and to do that I need to downgrade a 400+K ruckman so I don't know which to downgrade and to whom

rightio i got ya now! id probly try find cash somewhere else! but i guess ones that could improve would be

Luenberger (although im not sure if he is guaranteed 22 games with charman & clarke fit and the forward line full)

mumford might be the one too look at id say i think he has the 2nd ruck job under seaby, with white up forward with bradshaw? and hes versatile!

cheap ruck option could also be trent west from geelong - with big ottens out with a broken hand and mummy gone he should get a gig..
backline cheapies seems to be tough mate - phil davis from the crows maybe??  but fine tuning really aint gonna happen atm untill nab, we still got 48 days to 1st game!!!!  long time for anything to happen
