If there are only crap ruckman left we certainly do not want to pick the best one available. We still end up with a crap ruckman. We still have Spencer and believe that King will develop into a good back up but he will take time. Until that occurs if a better ruckman than Spencer can be targeted, who is happy to play second fiddle to Gawn then we pick him. That may take a year or two but we don't trade for an incompetent in the interim.

That does make sense and it depends what's available at our selections, but it doesn't answer the question about Barlow

Would anyone here be interested with us picking up Jarrod Pickett?

I agree that we need the best ruck prospect we can get out hands on. Personally I look at like as if we had the option of choosing between him or one of our depth midfielders, say along the lines of Michie, who would you want on your list. I'd pick Barlow every time especially if he comes cheap.
