Can Vickery put some bulk on, lift his intensity at the ball and start playing like a man aka Johnathan Brown?

He has, he did and a stupid comparison. He is a completely different player to Brown.  ::)  Why don't you go and have a face to face with Ty about him not playing like a man and see what the result is. I think you might be surprised Keyboard hero.

 besides i dont think the game is getting any faster  if two subs ever does come in i reckon it will get slower. im yet to see anything to suggest two ruckmen are a liability the opposite in fact.

I agree 100% with you on this Claw.   :thumbsup

You can't play two ruckmn with one resting on the bench.

It means you will lose rotations as the other side has an extra mids.

Who said you have to rest them on the bench?  They don't need or shouldn't get any more bench time than other onballers because they can have a strong, even profound influence on the game by resting down back or up forward, depending on their particular skill sets and the team needs at the time.  I don't think many modern coaches have thought it through properly yet but Longmire and Worsfold certainly see an advantage and I reckon others will go down that path soon as well.

Why not?

why should a ruckman be expected to run at around 90% game time and small bloke 80%

The work load you would take off just one bloke would be shared amongst many.

The key is that all midfielders (including ruckman) need to be able to rotate through the forward line as well
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Probably a load of garbage as he hasn't appeared in any training photos or permission to train lists but apparently someone on SEN a couple of days ago claimed Cameron Wood is training with us.

Well Petterd has confirmed he has been invited to train with us, so how may rookies could we pick up?
Maybe that would be the only way OE

in the air dawson would be an upgrade on rance.  :o in fact purely in a defensive sense id take dawson over rance atm. hopefully that can change.

i watched  a few of our games the other day  richmond carlton  one of them,  i was gobsmacked how times rance missed the ball in the air or was out of position or bloody fell over and iwas critical of this thru the yr it seemed worse second time around.
