The best from Josh will come with a fully fit Cam Wood!
Cant do it by himself.

That's very cheap Jack Spain.

It's easy to criticise Josh but I don't see many viable alternative players being put forward by you... and Murray Weideman and Gabbo are just too damn old. so where are they going to come from? :twisted:

I regard Josh as our best option going forward and the best option for our next captain should Scot Burns retire. It was no surprise to me that represented Victoria as first ruck. The selectors for that game were clearly knowledgeable people regarding our game.

Yes I agree, that's why he was selected to represent Victoria in front of many others

Sorry guys, with respect to the Victorian selectors it only highlights the poor ruck stocks in Victoria. I'd really like to praise Josh, he's a good bloke and all that, but he is far too inconsistent for my liking and hardly inspires by revving up his players on the field. The biggest problem he has in the centre circle is an inability to jump in time with the bounce of the ball. He always seems too jump early. But I don't dispute the fact that he is our number # ruckman. In an ideal world he would find a valuable place in our team as a tall forward.

Ah, so we agree that Josh is one of the best ruckmen in the comp? Thought you didn't rate him :wink:.
