Ruckman out of Gorringe, Cameron or Redden.......I still favour Cameron....massive upside....Gorringe is a headcase....and not in the good way that you want a ruckman to be.....been informed that Redden is cooked.....I'm not so sure though....still only 24.....wouldn't object if we got two of the above.....would be able to develop Soldo another year at a lower level with whatever big yank we're apparently looking to take a punt on...
Who is this Cameron chap?
Gorringe was a high draft pick want he? What's his deal?
Darcy Cameron was a player i hoped we would take in the 2013 nd or as a rookie.
Since missing the draft he has played 21 senior games for Claremont in the Wafl. He spends a lot of time fwd when in the seniors but Claremont use Mark Seaby as their #1 ruckman.
When thrown in the ruck he competes well and for his size has very good agility. He definately is a ruckman first and formost who can rest fwd take a grab and kick a goal. I think people need to realise he turned 20 in july.To be playing ruck against seniors even at state league is an accomplishment at 18 19 or 20..
His reserves form in the ruck is outstanding as one would expect.
I think its a matter of time before a club at the least rookies him.As a development ruck on our list he would be perfect.He is not ready however to take over from Maric if he got hurt.
I think theres a good chance of him becoming a decent AFL ruckman. He has now had two yrs of development playing senior footy, i dont see the point in waiting for him to have a stellar season only then to have every club hunting for him. Imo Late picks and rookie picks are there to take a bit of a punt and back in your judgement and intuition if you like..
I would be happy if we took this lad with our last nd pick or used a rookie pick. I would also be happy if we took Jarrad Redden depending on medical reports.
