Absolutely spot on.

Jamar is bog ordinary and PJ is not good enough to usurp him. Its embarrassing.

A bad case of overrating our C graders again.

FWIW, Minson, Ottens/Blake (either), Fraser, Warnock are well in front.

What makes Warnock superior to the Russian & PJ. Has he beaten David Hille of Essendon hands down like Jamar did in Round 18?

Firstly, Jamar nullified Hille in Round 18 and thats the sort of upside I would expect from Jamar. I have seen some earnest blanket jobs from Jamar last year but ge

Jamar and PJ are 25/26. Neither are sort after by any Club. Warnock is 21 with 3 seasons and 20 games and a number of Clubs scratching after him. He is on the ascendancy while our two players are as good as they will ever get as ruckman.

However even at this early stage, Freo have had a wonderful luxury of Warnock being back up to Sandilands. Its a pity it all breaks down for them after that (bar Pavlich).

Fair enough but there are no guarantees that Warnock is going to turn out any better than our blokes. I have a feeling that unless you're in the champion class like Cox the ruckman's role is a bit overrated in our modern game - especially with 4 boundary umpires.

Where did Cox get WCE?

You need a ruckman who can be competitive against other ruckman to at least allow your better (ahem) midfield to win more possession. You are right though with the change in the rules and the nature of the game, ruckman dont a pronounced effect on a game like they used to. My concern is ours dont have any.
