This whole notion that skinny ruckman don't go top 20 is just plain laughable and rubbish.. Good talented ruckman are like gold nuggets now, hence why the mid season draft was full of them. Clubs are always on the lookout for ruck depth as there are far more raw athletic ruck talent more then ever North Melbourne selected Jacob Edwards in the mid season draft because the chatter around the league is that he would have gone inside the top 15 at the end of the year. He's 203cm and weighs only 83kg. English, Jackson, Coleman-Jones were all inside top 20 pucks and all 3 were relatively skinny ruckman. Speaking to our (Murray Bushrangers) regional manager about Mac and there is certainly clubs who will be seriously considering him in the inside first round selection due to his sheer raw talent. It's not about what can he produce now, but what he can do in 5-6 years time .

Gawn slid down the pecking order due his knee reconstruction. He was considered a first round selection by other clubs including Melbourne who we were close to selecting at Pick 18.

For me Chandle needs to be given a run of games ahead of Melksham. We keep hearing coaches rate him highly, but giving him 1 game then omitting him the next week isn't really giving him the consistency he needs. Ps great Intel thanks TK.

Tomorrow afternoon

Agree. People have short memories. I'm loving this so called 6 week pre season if that's the case. All Burgo is doing is getting up to the speed and fitness of his program. As I said, Brown could become a huge fact around September if all goes to plan.

Why does Rosman have to replace Langdon? Can they not play together?

He's 11 games into his 4 year contract.. How about we hold off on the "flop" comments for now hey? Ample of time to make huge contribution still. Reckon we'll see him in the 2nd half of the year back to some good form.

We'll go for role players this year if anything. People like Ed Richards or Patrick Lapinski who won't cost a fortune at all.

Look at Richmond's draw from here. They've been given an absolute platter. They can easily slot into top 4.

Ports defence brings me chills of 2017 when clubs would just sling shot out the back with not a Melbourne defender in sight.

SEN interview.

But he didn't though.. Goodwin has already confirmed this via an interview that he wasn't given any specific role and he was simply just had a quiet game. Hopefully he's dropped for Langdon.

This is such a Simon Goodwin mantra. He'll love Taj.

Langdon comes in for Baker. Chandler for Melksham who then becomes a sub.

Yes and will be nominating for father son as well.

Ahhh legend!

Great news indeed. Can't wait to see his talent on show.

I [censored] love robbo

Saw that. It was poor form by Daisy considering only few weeks ago he was sooking it up about mental health and people bagging him on social media about his weight. The guy has a brain the size of a pea.

To people who question Caro's sources and integrity. From a footy journo mate of mine.

Absolutely we should be going after Maynard. Remember also his old man works for Casey Demons already. Great replacement for Hibberd.

Just to clarify my comment, I am meaning next year not this year in terms of replacement.

I'll throw a spanner.. If we lost Yze to a senior gig, would you take Buckley as a midfield coach?
