Media are speculating that Will Minson is likely going to be traded by the Bulldogs

Anyone think it's worth looking at as a short term solution?
yep hes worth a look. has to be an upgrade on any ruckman we have and thus would improve the list and raise the bar. it may be in 3 yrs time we have to move him on but hopefully by then vickery has established himself, now that is being hopeful as i dont see vickery  as a no1 ruckman i dont think he has the right mindset or body type to play ruck more a pinch hitter in the role.i hope im wrong and he becomes a fine ruckman.


i reckon we are at a stage where we do a sydney or stkilda  go out and get a couple of mature ruckmen but if we do that, we must invest in the draft and hopefully find a long term solution or two.

David King (yeah I know) last night on 3aw said Richmond couldn't afford to wait until our list matures to then go after a mature decent ruckman. Instead we need to go after one this year because if we don't it will hinder the development of our talented young midfielders such as Martin.
According to a caller on SEN today, David King also said that we would win up to 14 games per year if we had a top quality ruckman (he expects us to finish with 8 wins this year btw).


didn't david say not to long ago we will play kangaroos for a final spot.

And just before that he said we were deadset "certs" for the 8

Thought Ty did a servicable job tonight but we really missed him forward.

Big Griff showed he might fill that spot before too long though, and I think Post can be a 3rd option.

Still think we should trade our first pick and Foley for Blake.

Ty was very serviceable tonight and I thought he did a good job.
Griffiths I thought was serviceable as well and just makes me wonder a fit and potent forward line with Griff Jack and Ty with a decent ruckman giving first use of the ball to our boys.
Ty tonight did alot better than Gus and Browne combined that's the sad truth unfortunantely.

If we give Foley for Blake then the Club needs to board all the windows abandon Punt Rd Oval and let the drunks who hang around the rail bridge near the Corner Hotel on Swan St to go there and use the facilities as lair to light their bongs. FJ would need to be hung drawn quartered and then eighth sixteenth and thirty second.

We looked better with him there today,but when he wasnt there the dons had a training drill we couldnt even win a tap out or clearance and you have the best midfield there.This is starting to kill us not having a decent ruckman bad.

Its stuffing ridiculous.
An embarrassment as well.
Only club in the comp who havent developed  even a 2nd rate ruck man.
We have a Pear from Mansfield who can have a career after footy  charging idiots 10 bucks
to come and see him laying naked in a cage and Gus.
We won more games with Gus in....

Not sure I would have used the example Daniel but I agree with you anyway.   :)

Blake is slightly better than Browne. Getting him would be a dumber decision than getting Kent Kingsley to the club. WE WANT A MOBILE RUCKMAN.
