Maybe. Nik Nat was a bit of an unknown quantity at that stage. Martin and Gawn are both in their prime, it would be virtually impossible to maintain.

I mentioned Martin because we let him go for peanuts.  I see the challenge to their working together, mainly because Stef wasn't so great at anything other than rucking.  Max would be a great forward/ruck.  Anyway plenty of teams have two genuine rucks & my post was just saying that Max looked to be tiring a bit and is more likely to get injured while he's got no decent help.  Hey are you a guitar player too WAClark?

I wonder if we still had Martin would Gawn have had the opportunity to develop the way he has? it would be handy to have Stef back now, but extremely happy with Gawn who i'd consider to be the second best ruckman going around, only just behind Goldy

Good point, & I'm wrapt in Gawns playing this year!  ..but actually it's only about one season that he's been playing steady AFL now I think, so Stef would have been #1 for the past 3 years & we'd have been a bit better team for that, & I assume Max developed at Casey, so he'd probably be similar, but trying to work w. Stef, who I'm not sure would be quite as good as Peder when resting, but rucks much better.  On the other hand Max is handy resting forward now.  All moot of course, but I'd LOVE to have another great ruck to share with Max.
