christ were shit

 

[SavDog23]

We should play Grigg in the ruck

 

[biaseddustyfan]

who gonna be the number 1 ruck now?

ryan with miller back-up?

 

[daftmike]

We should Play Judson Clarke in the ruck with bolton, MRJ and Prestia as our mids. Would have won more clearances than taranto and hopper against the dogs.

Judson Clarke

 

[STRUGGLETOWN EST1885]

We should play Grigg in the ruck

I'm a pretty fit 52 and 6 foot 3. I'll put my hand up for the Grigga role ala 2017.

ryan with miller back-up?

Think so, probably our most experienced fit ruck at this point
Any idea how far along Soldo is?

At the very least he should have a week or two at the vfl so maybe still a month away if his injury is short term

Miller will be number one ruck, as much as it hurts to lose Nank the ruck is a position that can be covered, even Pickett or Riewoldt can even pinch hit occasionally. Ryan will play deep forward like Lynch

 

[The Mighty]

So the GOAT finally starts warming up and impacting games, then the rest of the club falls down injured around him.

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

They gonna take the bus instead?

Swimmingly!

I still have Ryan has the number one, played a lot more ruck in the vfl last year and was actually drafted as a ruck
Miller to play support/utility role

reckon ryan/miller will be better anyway

easily make 7th from here

Best way to develop these younger guys is to throw them in the deep end
Plenty of other clubs have similar issues with injuries to rucks and talls so we are hardly alone as well

Dimma said at the thursday presser they view Ryan as more of a forward especially now with the lynch injury, and I much prefer Millers ability around the ground and ground level

 

[WATiger86]

Heading over to Adelaide for gather round with a few eagles mates - was looking like a decent match before injuries took hold

Looking forward to it in any case

Ryan did have some decent games as ruck in vfl where he dominated the oppo plus kicked goals too. he's looked cooked already midway through the 3rd quarter in his afl games though will be interesting to see how he goes with the extended run at it now

 

[Ctl]

This is likely delusional and lacking in critical thinking but i'm strangely more confident of a win now, we have been pretty good in games with our backs against the wall

Kinda like Murphy's law... when it's all going to shit, somehow something good comes out of it

 

[STRUGGLETOWN EST1885]

Nothing to lose now the way our season is heading. Could Dimma pull a rabbit out of the hat, leave Ryan in the forward line and select Biggie to ruck this week. I'm assuming Biggie didn't get injured in the VFL.


Edited : Biggie also injured

 

[Groupie_]

nank been shite

 

[jetbhag]

Miller time baby.

Rampe on Samson just kick it on his head one out and watch the scumpires blow the whistle (hopefully)
