Anyone else worried that he might drop his scores a little due to the fact at St Kilda he was mainly their sole ruckman but at Hawks he will be with Hale, Roughy ect??

"McEvoy carried the Saints' ruck division largely on his own over the past two seasons, but says his role is set to change playing alongside the Hawks' deeper list of ruckmen that includes David Hale, Jonathon Ceglar and pinch-hitter Jarryd Roughead."

I think his scores will increase from his best tbh. When he rests forward, he'll see more of the ball than at the saints (and he did share the ruck at times significantly with hickey), plus he gets a lot of his points from mnarks/ disposals, and I think the hawks higher possession game plan will suit him perfectly in that regard.

Yeah, great points there.. im looking at him as an upgrade option at this stage, just to see how he goes at the Hawks..

yeah, that's fair enough. He plays brisbane/ essendon in his first two, so if you need to make a ruckchange for round 3, against leuen and ryder it should give you and indication of his scoring :P
