I think we should play Hampson & Maric against WC.  Two x half ruckmen = 1 ruckman.  It might not be ideal but its better than what we have had so far this year ...   :-\    Ivan may not be fit enough, but we really need him out there ...   :pray

I don't know if Ivan's average output is that much higher than what Hampson's was on Saturday.

lol. Have you been sleeping the last 3 weeks.

The bloke makes people walk tall, and when you have blokes like chaplin and grigg running around you need all the help you can get.

Yes, that leadership/inspirational factor is the key. And I am very much looking forward to Ivan's return. But in terms of their output, I don't think the difference between the two is as big as people make out. Both have big deficiencies and both have things they do well.

Either way, we will need to find a decent ruckman next summer.

Well, Hampson has out-jumped NicNat in the past  :spudnikbackflip #wishfulthinking

Hampson interview:

VIDEO: http://www.richmondfc.com.au/video/2016-04-15/hampson-training


* He’s obviously an amazing ruckman. You can’t really plan much against Nic Nat. You’ve just got to watch a bit of the vision and see what works well against him, see what other ruckmen have done, and hopefully try to replicate that, and just limit his impact a bit.

* I had double ankle reconstructions at the end of last season, which was well overdue.  That was just years of wear and tear. The body’s feeling really good.  No pre-season isn’t ideal, but hopefully I can finish this season off good, and next year have a big pre-season.

You cannot possibly blame Hampson for this debacle.

Correct

I'm just blaming him for being a soft gimp that is of no use
