Thats cos he played in the ruck. He is a 1st ruck, not a forward ruck. He needs to play on ball 75% of the game, and sit most of the other 25%.
Nank is the same.

Ivan Soldo had an opponent.
This was a very big game for Richmond. Coming off a month of ruck humiliation.
Freo has an emerging ruck. A good footballer who is young and can be got to. We had to get straight into Darcy. With that in mind we needed a ruck who would do that.
Ivan hurtled at the first bounce and smashed into Darcy. He did that repeatedly. Darcy was sent to HB to sit in the hole. That's where you send rucks who can't get near it.
Ivan Soldo flogged Sean Darcy.

Looks like he just got out of the boxing ring.
Yeah, but how does the other bloke look?
Oooooh nasty> Musta missed that one watching on the telly yesterday, probably too busy getting a beer or snack or something. What's the old footy saying about never putting you head where your arse will fit? Soldo might need instruction.
I’d rather that happened to my eye than my arse hole, brother!
If he dies, he dies !
Everyone seems to be offering up Soldo in a trade to GWS - but that must mean that everyone must also be convinced that Samson Ryan is ready to step up as our number one ruck if and when Nank goes down. Nank will be 29 next year - in his prime but getting on. I hope Ryan is number one ruck material, but if he's not, we could be in trouble very quickly.
I think we’d still have to source a second ruck but where from? There’s not much in the VFL. Try and trade for someone else’s B or C grade ruck? But it’d have to be a 3rd rounder and leave us with no draft picks. Lure Ben McEvoy or Callum Sinclair out of short retirements for a year?

There are no stupid ideas, just stupid people
Is Nank 28 and turning 29, or turning 30 next year? These distinctions are important.
According to Tiger71 GWS are interested in Ryan (not Soldo) and Ralphsmith. Pretty sure Soldo is originally from Canberra which may be part of the media's trying to connect dots without making any effort to investigate in order to verify from various sources who may on the trade table
I would be as well . Ryan is a much better prospect that Soldo will ever be.
Ryan is our key forward and back up ruck in waiting
If this is the case, we cannot let him go - because KPF is going to be a deficit area after Jack finishes up.
