Willi vs Box Hill

Re: Willi vs Box Hill

does anyone think we will go with the three ruckman Hudson, Minson and Street at any stage through the year?

I dont see why not, none of our ruckman are around the ground big grab players, but Street is tall and could probably win the ruck contests, dont think i have seen Hudson tried in the forward line yet, he has a big body, dont see why all our ruckman cant be rotated through fullforward, bench and ruck.
Does that sound like a good idea, i mean why are we pin pointing Minson as the only one.
Why not create 3 options depending on who we are playing against and best options.
I dont see any negatives to it.

What about the bit about us getting run off our feet with three big lumbering ruckmen in the side.

Ha ha Sockeye i like that , but there is such thing as a bench dont have to have them on all the time.
We have too many small blokes of the same category too at times, i did say according to opposition.
Wouldnt have hurt to have Hudson or Street standing in front ,blocking off Thommo or Petrie, like Grant used to do and what i think Everitt is being groomed for.
I remember Dempsey and Wynd were experts at it.

The game has changed ledge.

If our ruckman stood in the hole the opposition would use there ruckman as an offensive weapon.

How about one stays in the goal square ie Minson, and Hudson and Street interchange??

Which means we have one less runner on the bench making it harder to run out final quarters.

Drop Wight and bring in a runner.

Someone would have to get dropped for Street to come in. I'd much rather Wight be replaced with another runner.
