Apologies for harping on it; but Maric was either fourth or seventh (depending on whose stats you believe) for hit-outs to advantage across the entire league, last year...
He's not a journeyman, he's not a star, but he's a good, passionate footballer; he did have a big form slump this year, but outside from that, he's been very good for us.
It purely comes down to Jacobs being our lead ruck, and with Tippett (and SMcK) in the side, we don't need to play a second true ruckman.
Thanks - and I agree with you. Wall-e said it was 4th. I'll go with that
Graham was dropped this year because we were getting pumped at clearances. That stat went up when Browne came in, but Browne moves like he is towing a caravan.
Gee, imagine if we went hard for a HMac and got burnt... This is a much safer move and come 2013/4 we can go shopping
