Ceglar is originally from Wodonga I believe so just a stones throw from Corio Bay.

Re: Well Ruck Me.
Maybe part of the issue with Ceglar is we don't rate him particularly highly. As in just want him as a back up, little assurances etc. Much rather Ceglar than nothing but definitely not a Bevo style ruckman (if that isn't an oxymoron.

Re: Well Ruck Me.
If gossip hawks open to offers for any players over 26 what would we need to offer to get McAvoy?

I think we rated him as a decent option but maybe Geelong were into him earlier.

I think they might want to keep McEvoy due to his leadership. Wingard, Mitchell and O'Meara don't seem like leader types.

Hawks are trying to improve their draft hand not just give players away (other than Ceglar). Nobody is going to offer anything of value for McEvoy who will be 33 next season. I think they want him to stay to help develop Reeves and provide some leadership.

I'd take Wingard and plant him in the forward line, his an upgrade over a few on our list. Hopefully we can somehow lure Ceglar over.

On a tangent, could Edge be in line for a Hansen/King’s role? Those of you that have seen a bit of McComb, would he someone that would be worth taking as a late/rookie pick up?

I didn't realise Edge has been with the club since 2014. Before that he was with GWS for 4 years so I guess he has the necessary experience.

Re: Well Ruck Me.
McComb is an impressive VFL player - he is not tall but is big bodied - plays best in the midfield where we have plenty of options - suggest we are better to use late picks/rookie selections on ‘needs’.
Anyone can support a team that is winning, it takes no courage. But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you, that takes a lot of courage, so lets always be behind our boys and girls in red, white and blue.

The Western Bulldogs are not currently pursuing any ruckman.
They are hoping that Stefan Martin will return to full fitness and another pre-season will help Tim English.

Fingers crossed our mids learn how to defend against a dominant oppo ruck and mids over the pre-season otherwise it’ll be another year up the shitter.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Re: Well Ruck Me.
I have no idea who that source is. Are they actually reliable or just @traderumours?
