    Alot of people were saying, he's just a plodder, nowhere in White's Cox's class, but what he brings to our structure is probably more important, for quite a long time, we are winning clearances, he doesn't just tap the ball and hang out the sides and wait for the midifled, he's straight back in there if the ball gets loose or goes to the oppositon.

    He is grouse.
    Agreed. He's Ace!

    And who'll pick him up? St.Kilda? They like old dud ruckmen but have about 5 on their list this year

    Saints have Gardiner, King, Kosi and Blake so they'll be right for a while, though Gardiner is suss so they may want him, keep up the trend of taking ex-Geelong rejects. Carlton? At least until Leunberger? comes on, they have Cam Cloke rucking for them atm, surely Street would be a better option as a tap specialist to Judd, Murphy, Stevens and co...

    Can add Rix and McEvoy to the Saints list of ruckmen (btw Blake is not a ruck no more).

    Cloke is not a terrible ruck, not much better or worse than Street (did you mean Kreuzer, Leuenberger is the Lion.)

    Streeta is a Dog.

    Meaning, he plays for your team.

    Meaning, show the guy some respect instead of shopping him around after Round 6.

    Geez.

    I don't think anyone's shopping him around Lantern.

    Someone made a suggestion that he mightn't be happy playing all year at Willy (let's be honest, who would in that situation) & may think about a future elsewhere via the PSD. Fair call.

    The someone responded with who'll pick him up & mentioned St.Kilda have a habit of trading for recycled ruckmen.

    It wasn't like someone said 'we should trade Peter Street'.

    Good point. Sorry if I offended anyone, just defending players on our list, especially the ones who haven't done anything wrong (and if anything, are playing out of their skin to get back into the side).

    No probs here. I've defended Street often and he can do some things of value but no one will pick him up at his age.

    I'm not a fan of saying "we must trade these players" either. Almost gets to the stage where you don't want them to do well.

    Re: Hudson

    Must say I think your hard on street. I love his work with Cooney under him. He needs to work on the second efforts and if Will can work up forward and hold that down we could take 3 talls into games against sides like the saints.

    Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.

    Why just the Saints?I would have thought that there ruck division is pretty weak.

    I would have thought that Street would be helpful against only Sandilands due to the adavantage he gets with his height.

    Re: Hudson

    I think the saints would be easy pickings as they do not want to case out of the forward 50. Also I would like to see them stretched in defense, I would back our big over theirs any day. i think a few of their guys would think twice about running off Big Will and a resting ruckmen as they can turn it over.

    oh yes the father in-law follows them.
