Maric 1 year extension

Seriously guys he is there to provide insurance for our ruck stocks for one year. Calm down.
How about going out to the state leagues and grabbing a ruckman that has dominated that competition for insurance? You know, one that can still actually jump, run and get on the field. Just a thought.
 
Like one of the VFL ruckmen that Maric was being towelled up by only a couple of months ago!?!

Why do we treat our list with such contempt still keeping "insurance" players taking up senior list spots? Players who will offer very little to nothing at senior level but are just an able body. I didn't realise the rest of the list was so good we could afford to handicap ourselves like that!

May as well bring back Brad Miller for insurance too. Any other good blokes we can use as insurance?
 
Wow

Ivan is not the player he was but he is quite capable of playing 4-6 games if required. All the arguments are based on an opinion that he is now completely useless and he is not imo.

Like a lot of the posting going on around RFC on this site there is a fair degree of hysteria at the moment and extreme views.

It seems like yours is the extreme view going off the responses from this thread.
You are the expert on extreme views Gia so I will bow to your superior knowledge on the subject

If its low salary, and part coach as well, I'm not fussed.


Perhaps we should hire coaches to coach rather than use players on our list. The couple of games i say of Maric in the VFL he was smashed by VFL ruckmen who i hadn't heard of.

Apparently he's done a great job with Hampson. Sheesh even I could have coached an improvement in him. Like bend your fingers a bit when going for a mark and it won't bounce off your palms.
