        He actually did well when in the ruck against Collingwood.

        Before getting subbed Had same amount of hits outs as Soldo and more hit outs to advantage.
        More of an In Bruges guy?

            He is a good tap ruck, but 5 disposals doesn't cut it

              I don’t disagree. If he could get it up to 12 to 15 and more marks.

              For comparison Soldo played a full game and only got eight disposals.

                Old fashion ruckman.

                The position has changed, that is why Bevo likes English. To me Gawn is the guy you have to model your game on.

                      Don’t get yourself confused Mr.Mak… just because I’m not English number one ticket holder doesn’t mean I am on the Sweet bandwagon.

                          My post/ response to hujsh had nothing to do with you. I was just reinforcing my belief that measuring rucks quantitatively on tangible elements of their game is silly.

                            They'll get better if he has an extended run outside of the seniors. Now he's playing ones for the moment he's got to be really careful they don't slip too far.

                              What about Scott Wynd winning a Brownlow and couldn?t kick?
                              I?m sure he got 3 votes on a day he didn?t register a kick.
                              I really don?t care if our ruck gets 0 possessions if we win the game. Minimum he has to do is nullify the opposition ruck.

                                In the year Wynd won the Brownlow he averaged 18 touches per game and six marks.

                                To give you an example. In a game he got two votes in 1992.

                                28 touches. 12 kicks. 16 handballs. 6 marks.
