do we need to target an experienced ruckman. what do we pay if we do go after one.what type how old. how long do we need one for. all relevant questions.
to me a a steven king scenario would be ideal for us cost virtually nothing but we get 2 or 3 good yrs while kids in our system develop. i mention king because i think hes the type we need both short term and long term. big tough hard player who makes your smalls walk taller. good at stoppages and good at his art.with vickery and putt we have potential ruckmen forwards with browne we have a potential king type we need another young ruckman as well.

ruckmen who may cost little that may meet our requirements taylor from hawthorn 27yr old big unit

hampson from carlton highly touted has not broken into carltons team and has stiff opposition he could be looking for opportunities what with kruezer warnock cloke and now jacobs gtting games.

essendons laycock seems to be out of favour bit soft for mine but only 23.
geelongs west big unit still raw looks a likely type.

wce seaby 25yr old 100 games 200cm 102 kg has underachieved and cant get a game but has played some decent ones.

the other option of course is we just persevere with graham in the short term and hope one of the others can be fast tracked.
