Good posting Annie Lennox.
Can add blocking for team mates and most importantly clearance work.
NikNat for example doesn't just stop once he's jumped at the ball, he becomes another mid as soon as the ball hits the ground.

Looking at his stats is Maric much of an improvement on Gus? Does he do any of the above? Stats wise he is behind Gus who is at least improving his average hitouts year to year. Are we all blinded by the fact that Gus just shows so little want and agression at times?
I hope Maric isn't a lock. We should be at least investigating Hampson, Nicholls and the delisted Brisbane Rucks. I liked the look of McCauley in the game I saw him play. Griffin would be another but unsure if he would come to Melbourne.
Tomorrows Grand Final will be indicative of "Ruck - The most important position".
The team that wins the ruck tomorrow will more than likely win the flag.
Ottens/West should hopefully overcome an injured Jolly/Wood.
Comeon Tigers forget Maric and throw everything at Zac Clarke, he and TV will give us an enormous advantage and is young enough to grow with our cubs.

When we needed to have the comp pick in the draft it was that year when Nick Nat and Cotchin were in he draft.
Wallace was picking up cheap wins, instead of thinking of the future. Natnui was a star before he was recruited, I can remember his name being mentioned a year before he was drafted.
We should become like Chelsea and buy want we require,
Nick nat, Harry Taylor, Selwood and kerr

Jury is still out on this i would think.. Vickery is playing a more important team role than nicnat who gets a lot of help from Cox at present.. i'll wit until Cox isnt playing and see how Nic goes then..
It will really hurt if Ottens ends up being a triple premiership ruck man which he more than likely will be.

Our club foolishly didn't value him that's why he left.
Given our ruck woes since it was one of the dumber decisions we have made. Anyways that's my opinion.
Agree. He basically said, "I want to play more in the ruck", the club were in love with their twin towers set-up with Richo, so Ottens found a club that saw a role for him that interested him more. No doubt he's been the big winnerTigers of Old said:
