Well Ruck Me.

Re: Well Ruck Me.

Have we given up on Minno? For all the weekly discussions on the in's/out's, VFL talk and discussions about the optimal ruck combos I can't remember one post referencing Minno getting back into the 22 or staying in the plans.

Re: Well Ruck Me.

I love Minson, he has strength and often does some amazing things in the VFL, I think he plays depending on opposition match up.
Roughead is injury prone and needs a rest sometime during the year.

Re: Well Ruck Me.

I watched 2 and a bit quarters of the VFL yesterday and Minno did do much in the ruck or around the ground.

I get a feeling that he will either move on at seasons end or retire. I don't think the Bulldogs will offer a contract.

Re: Well Ruck Me.

It is a bit sad after the service he has given the club - but barring injury, I think he is finished with us.

Handy back up - but just doesn't have the right offering for our style of game.

I don't think anyone saw Roughead being this good.

I do think everyone sees Roughead going down at some point. Minson will get another chance.

Re: Well Ruck Me.

Roughead and Campbell combo appears to spell the end of Will who has been reduced to a contingency role. Sad end to the career of a loyal servant of the club.

Will is the back up to two Ruckman in their prime age to compete. Think we will see Will play some senior footy, plus he will have an incredibly important role with the further development of TC/Rough/Boyd/Goetz.

Personally I think it is great for our club that our younger rucks are taking the step up to keep Will out of the team.

It's not all on him at Alberton, clearly, but there you go.

Its very considerate of shit players to keep declining our offers.

I am so glad Dawes chose Melbourne over us.

I'm glader that Gumbie went to Freo!

Re: Well Ruck Me.

Admittedly it's a small sample size, but can we say that Campbell is the best ruck we have? I've been impressed with him the last two weeks.

Agreed. Roughie hasn't been bad in the ruck, but not very damaging around the ground.

At this stage I'd have him #1 right now. I think it's going to be a revolving door position though. Minson will get his shot at some stage as well.

Agree BT, I have also been very impressed with Tom the last couple of weeks and think he is the best option for us going forward.
