Is he worth looking into? Port ruckman behind Brogan, Primus and Lade.

Definitely if he can be had cheap. We need a 3rd backup ruckman in the event that Richards or Fraser misses.

At this stage we would be relying on either Hall, C.Cloke, Rocca, Walker or Crow to fill that void.

Cloke et al. can be the 3rd backup I reckon.

Must disagree Joel. We should be chasing a ruckmen so as to free up Fraser to play as a permanent Forward. 2002 we nearly pulled it off and look where Josh spent most of his time. He is not a true ruckmen but I believe a major forward in waiting.

If we are going to lose McKee, we must get a new ruckman. Akerland would come cheap. I'd look at him, as the Hawks are also after him.

Think we have plenty of ruck and back up options, we just need the top 5 to have big years in 2005.

Richards
Josh
Rocca
Cam C
Tex Walker
Trav C
Crowe
Fanning
Hall
