Best ruckman in the APS

[Panda]

Forgive me for not knowing any of Wesley or Geelong Grammars ruckman. Heading to the conclusion of the APS season, who do we think is the best ruckman in the APS, and who will it be who gets selected for the APS team?

 

[Haslam]

Why the hell isn't M. Fernon in this poll. His great marking and kicking skills surely must put him in the top teer of ruckmen in the APS.

 

[Panda]

What school?

jones from carey is the standout....stepped up to the plate this season after playing 10b's last year...works incredibly well in tandem with jackson (another yr 11)
Can also go foward when required to help out reid/dean.....kicked one or two in just about every match for the year


possible carey captain for next season also

Browny, 2 x yr 11's being the key big men at Carey. Does this mean they will be big improvers next year? Are there many other yr 11's or 10's playing 1sts this year?

Andrews (Hail) hasn't been beaten all year

Quite a few year 11's and 10's i believe

Symonds from GGS would have to get a mention

 

[Panda]

Apologies to Symonds, Austin and Fernon.

 

[Irony]

Andrews at Haileybury is clearly the best Ruckmen in the APS, he has to date had 3 different scouts down to watch him play including Hawthorn, St Kilda and Carlton. He will go this year.

Big call on Simple there. I hope it is true as he is a great bloke and a fantastic footballer. How do you know he has clubs looking at him?

DG MAN in answre to ur question..yes plenty of younger kids having a run this season....at least 8 yr 10s have been tried at one stage or another - and have been showing very good signs - however the yr 11s at carey is where the depth struggles. The yr 12 core group is full of about 8-9 solid players who contribute every week, and the of the few yr 11's of jones, jackson, brenchly are valuable players. however, without a full team of solid players, and the number of yr 10s that have been played this season...carey can be reasonably happy with their effort this seaosn

just another mention on brenchly...this kid shut down xavier ellis last weekend with an expectional display of tagging...only when ellis went foward was he dangerous with too much height and footy brains
well done brenchly

You left out Taylor-Marshall from CGS.... Sandilands doesnt even ruck for us. Crawly.. u cant vote for urself.. it doesnt count.

 

[Ggrubbers12]

Symonds from GGS would have to get a mention

defitnaly.. very underated abd is able to rack up 20+ possies around the ground to go with his many hit outs

 

[gormanisahack]

John Shaw is a gun

 

[Ggrubbers12]

Toby gorman in year 10 at xc going to play afl

your a joke

 

[jimmy07]

We all know that Toby Gorman in the 10A's for Xavier is the best ruckman in the APS.

 

[Aquaman]

yeah toby gorman is a good ruckman, sum1 to watch in the future. also james ulbrick in yr 10 at XC. known as the twin towers.

 

[clarke_rubber]

Wouldn't he play 1s then? You joke!

 

[boochy]

obviously the best ruckman in the league is andrew bell from geelong college. great skills by foot and a great overhead mark. not to mention with his flaming red afro is probably one of the quickest big man in the league. go the big red fire-engine!

 

[Irony]

Geez how many ruckmen can one school have. It says Scotch have 3 ruckmen which is hard to believe lol. They may be alright in the ruck, but that doesnt mean they are purely a great ruckmen!

 

[Ozzie72]

i agree with boochy
the kid can play
can dunk a basketball no problems so he has great athletism
watch out for him this weekend xavier
