    Yep that's what I was thinking, thanks G-Mo

    I was wondering whether your discussion with Rocket was before Everitt's ruck cameo in round 22, as if so that may have something to do with the delisting of Shaw with Rodney thinking that although he does not want to risk Cordy, that Everitt could be our 4th option if it came to that but who can play other roles if it doesn't, as opposed to Skipper, Shaw or a new recruit stuck at Williamstown clogging the list

    If not, then those remarks suggest Rodney does not see Everitt nor Shaw as that option and point to us picking up a backup ruck in the ND/PSD
    If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

    Me too. I liked what I saw of Shaw this season at Willy. He looked a decent, competitive back up ruck option, especially at the cheap price.

    Everitt is no more a backup ruck option than Trent Ormond-Allen.

    We are clearly going in with just the 3 rucks next year.

    I doubt we will go with only 3 rucks next year I am of the opinion that they may try to rookie an older type from one of the state leagues.By older i mean 21 or 22 year old who has shown a bit I know I have heard of a couple fron WA but can't recall who
    bulldogs are forever not just when they are winning

    If Cordy puts on some weight, then he would be a fourth. Also, Minson will play more ruck next year now that Bazza is at the club.

    Rocket said there was no way he'd risk Cordy in the ruck next year.

    The risk is what would happen if Hudson got a long term injury and while he was out Minson belted someone and got 6 weeks?

    Roughead would be our only ruckman and he is barely ready to be a 35% of game time backup.

    lets just cross our fingers that neither Ben nor Will get long term injuries.

    Does this means that he will not coming back to the bulldogs? or is he just keeping his options open?

    I hope we up him up in the draft or rookie list.

    Should be a good player!

    He is unlikely to be picked up by us.
