Top 5 Ruckman in the Comp.

[Altum Volantes]

What with a bit of hoopla about Ash McIntosh's brother not getting an AA nod and Brendan Lade getting his, who are the best 5 rucks in the league right now? Not who had the better season, or who is going to be better or something irrelevant about Leuenberger, Best 5 ruckman in the league, right now.

I'll say Cox, Lade, Ottens, McIntosh and Everitt in no real order with the exception of the painfully obvious.

Who have I forgotten?

 

[ClarkeM]

Richards looks promising!
What about Fraser and ...... blank! it is a bit hard actually

Everitt - I wouldn't even consider him top 10
Most overrated hack going around

IN: Charman or Hudson
OUT: Everitt

 

[Cynic]

1. Cox
2. Sandilands
3. Lade
4. White
5. Charman

In terms of value though MacIntosh would be 2nd in my books.

Are you kidding!!!! Richards is the worst footballer ever. Why does everyone think he is going to be a star.

Top 5 are Cox, Lade, ottens, Hamish and Charman

Sandilands would be in their if he was fit and playing more often.

Sandilands, Charman, Hudson, Brogan, Koschitzke, White or even Simmonds would have to be rated ahead of Peter Everitt currently....

 

[Hollow Knight]

Good to see some Jamie Charman love.

 

[Altum Volantes]

Sandilands, Charman, Hudson, Brogan, Koschitzke, White or even Simmonds would have to be rated ahead of Peter Everitt currently....

Koschitzke? He's a very average ruckman.

Everitt has still got a few tricks in the bag.

 

[walkers a legend]

1 cox
2 lade
3 mcintosh
4 kositskie
5 white

charman and ottens unlucky to miss

kosi deserves to be in there

MAYBE he was being sarcastic? Everybody knows Richards is way off the top 5 rucks.

Cox
Lade
McIntosh
Sandilands
Charman

blind freddy would see those two wouldnt make the top 20

 

[BK Eaglesfan]

I'd go with

Cox
Lade
McIntosh
Ottens
Charman

on 2007 form. Sandilands has the tools to get into that group, just has to start tapping to advantage more.

Very, very close between the top 2 this year, with McIntosh only marginally behind.

 

[cat in sydney]

1. Cox
2. Lade
3. Ottens
4. McIntosh
5. Charman

Lade and Ottens are very close, and may actually switch places, depending on how they each perform for the rest of the season.

You think Brogan is better than Lade. Thats insane. hes an AA ruckmen.

[patty_453]

If Hille is in their we might as well have;

1.Hille
2.Moran
3.Taylor
4.Ackland
5.Gardiner

 

[DanA]

For 07 it is as follows:
1. Cox - A mile ahead
2,3,4 - Lade, McIntosh, Ottens (Extremely close)
5. Charman, White, Sandilands

2-4
Lade - Probably the best tap ruckmen
McIntosh - the best around the ground
Ottens - Offers a bit more hardness at stoppages and kicks goals. (more versatile)

5
Sandilands - Probably the best tap ruckmen
White - The best around the ground
Charman - Offers a bit more hardness at stoppages and kicks goals. (more versatile)


Trailing behind:
Kosi: He takes 1.2 more marks and has kicks .4 more goals. Yet averages 10 less than hit outs than the good ruckmen. He is not even close to top 5.

Fraiser: Likewise
