IMO JVR should not be rucked at all. He needs to concentrate on his forward craft and not be taken away from his position, confused and increasing the risk of injury. We have others to be the backup ruck, who aren’t as valuable to our forward hopes.

BBB is probably ready to play again in about 8 weeks, probably at Casey, but Fullarton might be months.

Fullarton will probably go onto the long term injury list if his injury is serious, allowing us to add a player. if that happens a mature ruckman could be the target.

Agree Jay and that is why I named 6 others before him. That said, Disco was trialled late last year in a scratch match and did well, so who can say definitively he can’t play forward.

Correct, he is a developing kid, just learning the caper.

Thats a bit nasty.

Now we are talking. Superfood.

Plus Fullarton is available, Tom Mac is fit again, Verrall and Jefferson may be improvers, as may the smaller Seston and Schache is break glass. Disco is another that could be tried up forward if we are desperate.

Hang on I’m just ringing Schultz, Acres and Henry to see if they agree with you.

Yes, absolutely all our love and also condolences, to Tom and his wife and family.

I thought you might like my observations of a game, in which the score starts with love and can lead to one side having an advantage.

Not being sexist at all and in fact it was my wife who is more annoyed than me. More of the women grunt than the men and they sort of squeal and scream. It wasn’t around years ago and is a modern phenomenon.

The grunting by the women tennis players, is not only disgusting and off putting, but imo bordering on cheating.

What the hell is going on here?

I am just waiting for the next Michael Warner smashing of the MFC. Probably due the night before our first game.

Could be handy if we become insolvent.

I did say “ most” not “all”.

That is surprising if true, as most players starting again at a new club, usually put in the effort to arrive in good condition, to impress their club and give themselves the best chance of success.

IMO his disposal fell apart. His turnovers made him unplayable. A very good Demon for a long time and wish him well at his new club.

Amazing how Maynard incident is now illegal after he was allowed to play in a GF, same as the ridiculous Barry Hall punch 100 metres off the ball allowed him to play in a GF. Both important players in their club premierships.

Herald Sun today has an article on bananas, calling them a superfood. Just proves this thread is also a leader in foods and nutrition. We have known how good bananas are for years.

I am not afraid to declare my weight at 90kgs down 3kgs in last 3 weeks. Aiming at playing weight of 85kgs tops.

Just checked and he had 2 years left at end of 20 when we tried to trade him. At end of flag year in 21, with 1 year left, presumably as a reward for a good year, he was given a 2 year extension to end of 24. It was a straight out extension and had nothing to do with taking a cut, which presumably would have been reported if it was the case. Anyway, hope he has a good year.

No worries.
