Position 2024 Rucks

[Bollox]

Naismith can't be any worse at being a forward then Koshitzke, but he will be much better as a backup ruck.

I'll stick my neck out....he's going to make us good coin, and might even become important later.
With lack of bubble boyz next week, a decent score this week could cause a stampede.

 

[No eye deer]

Well the Grundy to Meek trade has backfired so far.
I’m hoping Meeks ribs are better and he can start punching out a few tons.
Meek to Darcy in a few weeks.

Balta is 1-2 weeks away. Naismith won't stick around. Will make some money eventually, but he'll be playing VFL more than AFL.

Dogs Garcia is the one next week. 23 yo. 5th year in the system. 20 games under his belt. Lots of spuds have been rotated through that spot at the Dogs, the competition isn't that good (McNeil, Jones, Poulter, Baker, Scott, etc).

Looks like English is about to bottom out at $590k-ish.

Unless another opportunity presents itself next week, I think I'll just do Meek to English for $150k and be done with my rucks.

If Meek can keep up a 90 or 100 average at R2 I'm inclined to keep him until I've cleared out my lower-averaging on-field rookies on other lines

No such thing.

I wouldn’t pick Garcia if that’s the role he goes back to.

 

[Bollox]

No such thing.

You need the heavenly bliss of Grawndy in your life.

Not looking like we'll have many options.

 

[Requiem]

Am I crazy for half considering Meek > Naismith next week?

 

[Bollox]

Am I crazy for half considering Meek > Naismith next week?

Not this week, but if he goes well tonight or any issue with Nank then many might consider the cash grab.
Its a big haul.

 

[SC fish]

Am I crazy for half considering Meek > Naismith next week?

No - I thought about it

 

[A Bit Dusty]

Am I crazy for half considering Meek > Naismith next week?

YES

 

[ohh_v]

Am I crazy for half considering Meek > Naismith next week?

I’m considering this cos I currently have Gawn, Grundy and Meek. But then I’ll have a perma donut up forward

 

[Requiem]

Looks like Meek > Naismith is dead.

It wasnt good, but there's been worse fallout from that stampede on Grundy.
Grundy > Marshall was a bust, but the Grundy > English trade was a massive disaster.

Prices closed more than $70K in just 1 week between Grundy and English, and likely to close another $70K this week.
Thats the equivalent of throwing away an entire good rook.

Yep, around $590k with a BE of 80-90. Horrible timing as it looks like Meek still has solid scores in him and cash to make, and Sweet is about to come in. I suppose English has to wait. Hopefully he doesn't go back up to $700k lol.

Last two weeks, English is back to his old self .....running hard to make himself a target ....was very good in Ruck contests against an elite tap ruck in Hodor

He will be 700k again after he double tons against the Hawks and Tiges the next 2 weeks.

should get more ruck time when ugle hagan comes back too and lobb is dropped

 

[MrChristo]

Last two weeks, English is back to his old self .....running hard to make himself a target ....was predictably timid and ineffective in Ruck contests against an elite tap ruck in Hodor

 

[Sherman41]

SP Hodor building into the season. Expecting him to finish year strongly with a 125 + average

He’s never going to wrestle the big boys but I agree he’s definitely taken the valid criticism from the Essendon game and upped the physicality.

Its difficult bc sweet looks good and id like to get him in but im running gawn grundy naismith. IF naismith gets picked then him and sweet are both on the bubble..not sure if i want to do a sideways trade and i dont want to jump off grundy yet.
