Hello Shinboners!

The embedded resources below are kept up to date by the trade board mods (as much as possible – we are human after all). Enjoy!

Spoiler: Blue Tick Rumours

 

[Rod Stroker]

Apart from Gawn and maybe English how many rucks regularly dominate games?
Go have a look at the 4 clubs playing off this weekend and see who their rucks are. Briggs is probably the pick of the lot, but he is going up against Collingwood who run with Darcy Cameron and Mason bloody Cox!

When it comes to our rucks you and others seem to be equating 'capable' with 'must be an unstoppable freak of nature'. An understandable expectation given how spoiled we were in Goldy's prime years, but not a realistic expectation.

If the opportunity comes along to draft or trade for a supremely talented ruck prospect then hell yeah lets go for it, but having the best ruck in the comp is no guarantee of success, just as having an average ruck is no guarantee of failure.

Even 'capable' is being generous to describe Xerri. He just doesn't have very good ruck craft. Doesn't get to the right spots, or tap to the right places. If we're pinning our rucking hopes on him, I expect disappointment.

 

[Rod Stroker]

Bring back Preuss!!!!

I would agree if the bloke wasn't so injury prone. For all the time he's spent on AFL lists, he's been off the park more than on it.

 

[Rod Stroker]

All we get is a list spot. He is a 35 year old FA.

Well we already had that list spot, it's nothing extra. Just that now it will be filled with someone else instead of Goldy.

 

[TruRoos7]

Don't see the point of doing that for no other reason

To **** with our minds…

 

[Rod Stroker]

I kind of agree with you. But I don't think we need to clamour for the ruck who will dominate the rest of the 20s for us this offseason.

Darcy, Samson Ryan, and English all up for grabs next year.

A capable ruck to see us through until then would be fine, I reckon.

Moyle? Flynn?

Agree. We don't need to outlay shitloads to get an A grade ruckman, just someone solid.

Would be great if we somehow nabbed a Briggs type; 20 games ago he was unheard of. In the second half of the year he became a top 3 ruckman in the game.

 

[jaspers_barber]

I'm of the belief that Xerri is not the answer for our number 1 ruck. Sure he's had injuries, but for the games he's been on the park, he hasn't come close to dominating a single game either as a ruck or forward. He doesn't have it. We need a capable ruckman ASAP. We need to not waste this rare talented group of mids (with more to come), and give them the best opportunities of getting their hands on it.

I trust Greenwood as a ruckman over Xerri

Yes, exactly, it would be pointless, arbitrary, and achieve nothing. Exaxtly what ive come to expect from AFL head office.

[Daniltchenko You Beauty]

Sure he is

 

[shinboner magic]

Don't think one or two seasons in a career twilight tarnishes any players reputation these days. I still consider Tarrant, Wells, Lindsay, etc Shinboners and most would consider them practically one-club players when looking back anyway.

Spud /boomer knew what to do.

All of those players you mentioned - what did they get out of it , an extra 1/2 yrs of cash.
If it’s a job to them - fair enough , don’t comeback to former players day as that isn’t a paid event

 

[The b shart]

Or another meeting with darcy

 

[LB2Snake]

Money talks - long cubtract as well.
This kid is the goods



What a knob

Instead of retiring a one club player with love and affection for all our fans - he’ll go to another club and stink it up and be a nomad

Lord taken after Mahoney in same draft.

These are just a dumb calls. Bloke has played 33 games. Give him a proper chance. I bet you would have been calling for Gawn’s delisting after the same experience.

 

[New_Roo]

Sure he is

More like Sean Darcy!

Disagree with this take. We should welcome back all our champions with open arms. These are mid-30 year old blokes who's careers are ending. Can't blame them for wanting another few hundred grand before they end up.

Goldie (and the others) have bled for our club, they're Shinboners and always will be.

 

[chubbspeterson]

Lewis, Hodge, Birchall, Shiels and Gunstan all gone onto other clubs. It's going to happen more often with all teams, whilst we would love all of them to be one club players it will become rarer and rarer going forward.

Rucks generally aren't your brain surgeon type

"Hey Tristan, how's it feel to be the number one ruckman next year?" He smiled.

Said to him by someone on table 8 from BF (not me).

In light of the public news on Goldy, how do we feel about the quoted comment?

I feel that you are an attention seeker and just here to pontificate. What was the purpose of your "hamstring" comment if not what I just described?

Feel whatever you like. I was just passing on information, as limited as it was.
