We get it Jack you dont rate ivan, actually you never have, you bagged the club when they recruited him

But dont make Hampson out to better than what he is. He is a good tap ruckman who the majority of the time is a liability around the ground

It is an indictment on our club that he is the best we have right now

We need to give the whole coaching, recruiting and list management staff a pat on the back for the great work for holding their nerve, sticking to their guns and backing their own judgement on our rucks. Maybe they all need a 2 year contract extension for not bending when every man & it's dog on the planet thought we needed to recruit more rucks.
Well done RFC.  :clapping

When he gets over his foot injury lets throw Elton in the ruck, could not possibly be worse than what we are going with ;)

Ivan was a good player who is now completely cooked. Hamspud is a shyte player who is still shyte. FACT.

Won hit outs, completely useless around the ground and couldn't take a mark to save himself - so basically he was Hamspud-like.... :clapping

Maric is shot, will no doubt announce his retirement at seasons end or possibly even sooner, there was a reason he was playing VFL. Essentially we have no ruckman at the club capable of around the ground dominance in the air. Another area the recruiters seem to think everything is ship shape when blind Freddy can see it was and is something we urgently need to address.

Like it or lump it I think tonight clearly showed Hampson is easily the best ruck option we have atm.

We dont have a high quality ruckman it has been clear for years. I keep saying we only have two High quality kpps the rest are hampson like!!!! yet people think the priority shoud be mids again.

If your going to put aside Maric had a gazillion more hit outs to advantage than Hamspud had last week (ok let's humor ourselves and reality and do this for a moment), Maric actually had just 4 less disposals around the ground than Hampson had last week.

Four.

Yet that's the difference for you and WAT between a ruckman you back to the hilt and a ruckman you don't rate.

LMFAO

You guys have NFI
