Benny gale was shyte till 25   :whistle

Just to clarify how many touches are we expecting the 21 200cm playing out of position (to accommodate mcgaune forward) per game? 35?

One game in what, 5 years? Stop making excuses. Either step up or bugger off. Big pre-season and one last crack at it. If he still can't get a kick then it's time to go. Most of the time Jayden Post played with the intensity of WP after he had a beer thrown in his face yet Posty still had the odd good game

By the looks of it 10 is too much to ask, so how about 7

Didn't realise that height limits your ability to win the football.I guess clunking marks is no go zone for Griff

Certainly agree we need to be more active in getting rucks. Let's face it our "real" ruck stocks consist of: Maric.

Vickery pinch hits there and Stephenson fills in when Ivan is out. McBean has virtually never played ruck and Derrickx? Please!

Look at Hawthorn with Bailey, Hale, CEglar, LOwden, GRimley. Geelong with Simpson, McIntosh, Vardy, Blicavs, West. It's a numbers games and our numbers don't cut it.

We need a second good ruck.

How can you say our "real" ruck stocks consist of Maric but then go and list Ceglar, Lowden and Grimely for hawthorn :lol :lol
