You trust this lot to get it right?

In four years we have gone from having the leagues most feared, dominant and deep ruck division to one of the weakest if not the weakest!

Feared or over rated?

Maybe time to give Wood a promotion and a run. While no gun player he will be a greater presence around the ground at least plus the most likely to kick a goal or two.

Warnock, with his height will often dominate the tap outs and the opposition know that and rove to him. Sandilands has the same problem as far as tap outs go. Predictability is a curse there. Given Warnock does very little elsewhere, unlike Sandilands, his value become diminshed. Wood won't win as many taps but surprising we might win more clearances as ruck contests won't be as predictable plus, as I said, get a greater presence around the ground and even near goal too.

Do not agree, three or four seasons ago we had the top rated ruck division and had such depth opposition clubs were forced to play extra talls against us to prevent their own rucks being run off their feet. Opponents could not rest when we had two or three in the one side and we benefited accordingly.

Now an opponent "monitoring" Warnock is getting a break which is as good as being benched, Warnock is no marking threat at all, so much so they don't even bother to pick him up in our F50! He can't even bring the ball to ground against medium sized defenders

We are not a threat anymore though, we are now ranked in the bottom half for both ruck and mids, it's a cause and effect scenario as far as I can tell.

Talk about a storm in a teacup.

Kreuzer getting injured hurt our ruck division more than anything else.


Notice our midfield started getting smashed and that coincided with our ruck woes.

And that may have something to do with the loss of Kreuz's efforts post the tap, e.g. second efforts in clearances, blocking/tackling opposition mids, other 1%ers and general ground play etc. Warnock does hardly any of that stuff but he probably wins more taps (haven't looked up the stats on that).
Reality always wins in the end.

I can laugh about this, until I get to watch Goldstein turn 206 into his bitch this Friday night!

PS; Goldstein was BOG last week, 5 marks, 5 tackles and 2 goals with 40 hit outs to top it off! (Excluding the taps that is probably a seasons tally for 206!)

Kruezer was good on the ground average in the air- who knows now with his foot, hip and knee ....
Matthews says he is a low B grader at best

No one is laughing LP, it's simply a matter of time.  Things will turn around we are better than what we are seeing.  I think Buttifant's work won't become prominent till next year and many of our players will surprise everyone next season.

I have no faith in 206 improving, fitness has nothing to do with it and Buttifant won't make a smidgen of difference!

Warnock is almost 28(Jan 2015) and still plays like he did a decade ago, he should be in his prime now in the same way Jacobs is hitting his straps at just a year younger! They should change his nickname to BFG!

Kreuzer turned 25 in May, he still has two and a half years on Warnock, and even as a cripple Kreuzer is twice the footballer.

Someone has saved 206 from complete embarrassment, he has an angel somewhere helping him avoid a smashing for the most inform ruckmen in the league!
