Nic Nat > Martin + Blicavs + Goldstein ;)

Goldy would have scored 200 against no ruckline like Nic nat faced. His score is actually pretty disappointing considering he only just edged out Goldy.

One immense difference. Callum Sinclair. North don't play a second ruck, we do. NicNat probably played 65% ruck at best (missed the game) so that hurt his scoring somewhat.

Im not sure NN has the ability to solo ruck all season long, week in week out. That is one of the strengths of goldy he just lumbers around the ground. I can just see NN getting injured or just worn down if he tried to do it alone.

Maybe, but you cant just ignore the fact he ruck-shared on the weekend (be it required or not)

Depends who takes the place that Sinclair occupies in North's 22.

Blicavs soon to be > Nic Nat, Goldy and Martin.

105.9 average in just his third season playing AFL.

The sky is the limit for Blitz!

Also Nic Nat won't solo ruck all season long. He'll always have one of Sinclair, Lycett or McInness to back him up. So your point about him not being able to manage it isn't valid Holz.

I said he will probably always have someone backing him up, that's one of the reasons goldy is better both in supercoach and in the afl as he needs to have people backing him up.

Blicavs is more a mid than a ruck, it wouldn't surprise me if he is mid only at some stage. He only gets 13 a game to Goldy's monster 41.

Guys, guys, the one AFL-team ruck strategy is surpassed by no individual  :P

Round 1: Jamar (90)
Round 2: Jamar (73)
Round 3: Jamar (65)
Round 4: Jamar (82)
Round 5: Jamar (61)
Round 6: Spencer (68)
Round 7: Spencer (90)
Round 8: Spencer (115)
Round 9: Spencer (102)
Round 10: Gawn (98)
Round 11: Gawn (118)

Huh, it actually wasn't that great up until Round 7... the past month made me forget about the start of the season :P

Still, guaranteed a ruck each and every week  ;)

i have gone for that too

Goldstein Currie Daw.

Goldy doing just fine alone though

[Jroo]

Yep Maric and Hampson going well too :P

[Nige]

If Boomz would give us Phillips, that'd be great.  :P :(

[Ricochet]

Yeh maybe instead of a new ruck rule we just trade harder to get a teams complete ruck stocks. That was our plan anyway. Got Nicholls, Gorringe, Brooksby... just needed ZSmith.

[Nige]

Maybe Purps should set up a system where each Worlds team gets all the rucks of one AFL club.  :P
