Torn between Maric and Goldstein for the #1 ruck role all other options are unconvincing except for Cox whom I am hanging out to be announced as a DPP FWD/RUC and I have locked Leuenberger as my 2nd ruck.

im in the exact same position  :-\

yeah i specifically said "premium priced ruckmen" so this obviously doesn't include berger, otherwise everyone for this poll would just pick him. i know that everyone will actually pick him for next year if he gets up, but for this i just wanted to see whom everyone else thinks has the goods
If this is the case then i would be only choosing Goldy at this stage. Burger would be number 2 with rooks on the bench (maybe vardy if i have the cash)

6 people have voted "other" who are the other premium priced Ruckmen not in the Poll? :o

I might Start Mummy because of his price as he was good to me after Sandi went down, if he gets fit he will be a great pick, Sandilands is another but is he durable anymore?

Maybe people are going cheaper with Kruezer/Leu or Vardy/Leu or even going mental with Daniher or Grundy starting... Or both!?

At this stage its Goldy/Berger for me with Vardy at R3.

But looking closely at McEvoy and NicNat

Always thought id look at using Vardy as coer but the recruitment of Hmac will see me steering clear of him this year I think!

its also interesting seeing no one has chosen minson. considering he averaged 86.6, i thick there may be potential there for a good unique.

Going cheap next year, Berger and HMac with Daniher and Grundy on the bench

He's solid, but there are way better options who will push 95+ averages.

I really don't think Sandi should be started with ever again. His durability is just about zero and its unlikely he'll play more than 18 games or so in a season which isn't enough for a ruckman. Your backups in that position are usually not very stron and can't cover him whilst he's out. He should be a late year upgrade/sideways trade target at most

Exact same for me, also considering Maric and Cox.

Ricochet

Still torn on NicNat and Goldy. I really think NicNat will go 95+ next year
