I think the main question is, is he better than Hampson?

Merely being better than Hamspud is the absolute bare minimum.....like saying we need a mid who's tougher than B.Ellis....

Tom Derickx would be coming in handy right about now IMHO haha. Was quite serviceable for Sydney last year.

Hope the penny has dropped with the list management team...

I'd take anything better than Hampson at this stage. Our ruck stocks are that poo I don't think we can be too picky

Wonder what Trent Knobel is doing and whether he would be interested

How about luring Brian "Whale Roberts from Duke of Wellington?
He'd get to more contests that Vickery
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Remember when we used to throw Tuck into the ruck every now & then? He would be the best ruckman in the current group...

True he could mark and kick a goal

Not sure about his training form though

Latest rumour doing the rounds is that Tom Nicholls is on the table....

Yep. Would be a good get. And shouldn't cost too much.
