TBH everybody seemed to pick up on this except it seems us.( they just had to read Woof )
Once the third man up rule changed, we should have adapted and recruited immediately and not be trying to stop gap repair now.

I think we can avoid a deficit now. Are we bold enough to put the 2022 First Rounder up for a good ruck and go fishing?

Jones will be 31 at the start of next season so I don't think he'll have long to wait.

You would think Jones has at least another 2 years left in him so Young is going to have to bide his time unless Carlton think they can play him along with Jones & Weitering.

You would think if we had room in our cap we would have done that already regardless of player type.

I think they might try him in the Marchbank role seeing as Marchbank is permanently broken.
I should leave it alone but you're not right

Re: Well Ruck Me.
Ceglar to Geelong
Lynch to Hawks
Dogs not interested in Ladhams
Hey Bevo, did our ''new look ruck department'' consist of the same 3 rucks as last year? Because I ain't seeing much else out there... I ain't saying ''panic'' but I am saying ''well shit...''

We're not into Lynch or Ladhams at all. Where do we go from here? Mason Cox or nobody?
My guess is we might look at Mason Cox now or just stick with what we have.

Re: Well Ruck Me.
Cox fits the mantra of being a bit flexible eg plays forward, kind of ok around the ground and has a good competitive streak

Are we now convincing ourselves of Cox? I mean... I rate him higher then English so why the hell not.
