Soldo played so well I'm thinking of getting an Instagram account and following his girlfriend.
I know it's early but is there an Ivan Soldo bandwagon started up yet.
Grundy thought otherwise but we landed on our feet pretty well after that rejection.

Lets see how he goes against a decent ruck first.
Yeah, you're right but I'm just too excited.

Lets be honest, he is not worse than the corpse Lycett being wheeled out.
You're harshing my buds, dude.

Where are all the superstar young rucks it's all gone quiet on that front. Where's the next nic Nat?
Luke Jackson went off with a bang but hasn't done much lately.
We've still got big Maxy gawn and dinosaurs like goldy running around.

Jackson was 2nd BOG as solo ruck in Freo's big win over Brisbane 3 days ago.
Made AA squad last year too. Although not sure it was that deserved
Has a big man persona and presence. The onballers will enjoy that. Richmond fans rated him.
Briggs only 24, jackson only 22, Sean Darcy only 25, de koning only 24, Draper is only 25 that’s some good young ruckman coming through
For a midfielders those ages are not that young but for a ruck that is young.
Along with Luke Jackson, Kieran Briggs is probably the other new shiny ruck toy.
I wonder how long it takes for Sean Darcy to be traded to the Cats.
I'm keeping my eye on Tristan Xerri as well.
Lets hope Dante can get his act together.

Draper is rubbish.
Briggs was looking really good but seems to have slowed down, think he's had some injury concerns though.
De koning and Darcy have not really been super impressive. At 24/25 these guys should be close to their primes.
People are suggesting bog average types that might have serviceable careers bland maybe nab an AA once in their careers. Where's the next gawn/nicnat/cox?
Briggs and Jackson are the two young rucks that stand out.
Briggs with his more midfieldish type stats and Jackson is just a very skilled tall.
Both of them have pretty good midfields to work with.
Lots of Richmond fans loved him, not just rated him, bar a few negative Nancy's.
Some people just don't understand that there's a role for a bloke even if he's not AA level.
Nankervis IMO has never been a top shelf ruck either.

Here we're thinking it's another Matt White moment.

Love this guy, so big and strong and awkward. Nullified Big Nank, such a presence in the centre square.
Yep nullifying Nank is a massive improvement on previous years.

Wasn't amazing today but a massive upgrade on what Lycett would have done.

A pretty good game against the guy he was understudy to for so long. Nank has really gotten a hold of us a bunch of times in the past so you'll take that sort of match up for us every day of the week.
