    Re: Well Ruck Me.

    English’s best rucking game for the year was against Brisbane. Smith is behind the guy who is behind the guy who English beat.

        Reporting tonight Chol to GCS, 3 years and trigger for a 4th.

        Coleman-Jones wants to ruck. North offering 5 years and up to $450,000.

        Richmond are going to have one hell of a draft hand.

            CJ wants to ruck but is going to a club with Goldy still going ok. Interesting.

                They mentioned something like initially learn from Goldy. Then take over from him.

                North landing a trade despite offer more years/money. History says don’t bet on it just yet.

                    Richmond have a truckload of late picks too, more than they will have list spots....

                    I think we'll cover a Sam Darcy bid just fine

                        I don't see a no 1 ruckman in CCJ. A forward/ruck yes, but I expect Xerri will takeover from Goldy when that day comes.
                        CCJ will play every game for them next year. Comben is good but striggles to stay on the paddock.

                                Rookie list if we want to grant him that, is my take.

                                    Bro, do you really reckon at 6.50am he has announced he wants to play on in 2022? He'd still be asleep!

                                            He is about to play 199, so may want to get over the 200.

                                                He's so critical I'd give him a spot. Reckon he can play 15 games next year. Remember Ceglar's best is 14 so he's no upgrade.
                                                But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                                                    MARTIN KEEN TO GO AGAIN

                                                    AS HE shapes as a key player in the Western Bulldogs' Grand Final chances on Saturday, ruckman Stef Martin says he is determined to play on in 2022.

                                                    Martin joined the Bulldogs last year on a one-year deal with a trigger for a second season, although injuries will mean he doesn't reach that mark.

                                                    However the former Demon and Brisbane big man, who will turn 35 in November, said he wants to continue his career into a 15th AFL season.

                                                    "I am desperately keen to play on next year. I even was when the injuries were hanging around, I was optimistic it would all come good and I would get it right eventually I just had to bide a bit more time," Martin told AFL.com.au.

                                                    "I would love nothing more than to be around the Dogs next year, that's very much on my agenda."

                                                    Martin was dogged by a groin injury that threatened to end his season mid-year but he made a recovery in time to be selected for the Dogs' preliminary final win over Port Adelaide.

                                                    He will face off against former teammate Max Gawn in a ruck contest that will have a big bearing in this weekend's Grand Final at Optus Stadium. It will be Martin's ninth game of this season, and the 199th game of his career. - Callum Twomey

                                                        I'd keep him on for a year. His ruck craft is excellent and the likes of English, Sweet (if we keep him) and Darcy (plus others) can learn a lot from him.

                                                        No reason that if he's going well, we manage him like GWS did with Mumford.

                                                            Keep Martin around for another year and use him as a playing ruck coach, just bring in someone else to take the bulk of the work.
