Do you think we will use Jackson as a ruck?Explains why
If Jackson is being sold as the future 3rd best ruck, and Darcy is also top 5, that's poor list management.
Geelong have elected not to put their capital into rucks. Seems to work.

Wtf is this s**t? Has Hardwick taken over the channel 7 social media account or something!
Top 10 pick for a guy barely B22!
Nope. That's the whole bit about it being a reasonably well run club. No-one wants to go to a club that they think is flakey.Fagan and the Hawthorn connection was significant - luring Hodge there and the flow-on effects.
Not much of a destination in the few years before that was it?
Yep! It's a right bastard too sometimes. I got it right after coming home from 10 weeks at Singleton so was as fit as I've ever been and it took me out completely for 3 months. Couldn't get off the couch, didn't have the energy to change the channel on the remote. Lost about 15kgs and had to have a liver function test every second day. Rough. The fact that he's playing at all if he had anything close to that this year is amazing. Just have to hope he bounces back from it. Nasty shit.Didn't he have glandular fever this season? If so, it hangs around for a while.
No idea. I assume he will replace Lobb's minutes, mostly because I think Darcy is a #1 ruck who can rest forward, but isn't a forward.Do you think we will use Jackson as a ruck?
Greenwood, Logue and Tucker going to North, Weller went to GCS, Lobby wants to play for Bulldogs, MacPharlin, Bell, Croad and Tarrant came to us. It does happen.Nope. That's the whole bit about it being a reasonably well run club. No-one wants to go to a club that they think is flakey.

Had a crappy season did our Darcy.
Soft at the contest, couldn't take a mark and was pushed around in the ruck too easily.
Dogga was all over him at optus.
Darcy was playing sore and tired in the back half of the season, it happens when you are shouldering 85% of the ruck duties. With Jackson coming in that will drop to 65-70% and he’ll play a lot better. He barely spent anytime resting forward either as he was in the bench when not in the ruck.J

Are we buying Jayden Hunt as a free agent from Melbourne for a faster wing option?

Thought he was west coast bound?Are we buying Jayden Hunt as a free agent from Melbourne for a faster wing option?
I mean, this suggestion cost port more for Graham than Richmond will pay for Taranto or Hopper!Edit: This isn't the Rendell one. Where is that? Didn't he basically suggest this?
Bargain hey?I mean, this suggestion cost port more for Graham than Richmond will pay for Taranto or Hopper!
If we want a fast, flakey turnover merchant.Are we buying Jayden Hunt as a free agent from Melbourne for a faster wing option?
Yep - West Coast are targeting Hunt. Hunt is a FA and remains out of contract.Thought he was west coast bound?
We already have a younger one of these that fits our squad's age profile better.If we want a fast, flakey turnover merchant.
Not saying it's a favour, but if the club thinks the bloke is worth peanuts and didn't want to pay him then perhaps that's exactly what he's worth?Why should we do any club a favor?
Acres can go to the draft. Seriously a late F3 is useless to us.

Yeah I was more just making a point that key forwards don't need to be sitting on peoples heads every week, and that Treacy has shown plenty for a kid that was 19 until the end of his last (very interrupted) season.I hate the JJK comparison but man Treacy gets a lot of stick here for a 2nd season KPP who isn't pick one.
Treacy had better stats in his first year than JJK did in any of his first 3 years.
Not that I think he's going to be anywhere near as good, but as KPFs go his trajectory is super promising thus far, especially for someone picked so late. Huge misread by us this year not giving him a few games especially early on when he was kicking bags at Peel.
Yeah love Treacy. Think ny buddy's going to be a fantastic player for us and the enforcer who ensures that no one ****s with Amiss.I hate the JJK comparison but man Treacy gets a lot of stick here for a 2nd season KPP who isn't pick one.
