So have been reviewing my Ruck set up ... grrr ... shouldn't need to but it is what it is ...

Grundy not getting enough TOG (or time in ruck IMO) and the Cameron chop out might be killing him ..
- Has SYD (??) , ROB and Gawn in the next 3 rounds ... mmm ....
- Strange selection stuff and game plans happening at COL ....
- No real issues on who to give it to though ... lots of options but the Forward line ... oh my ...
- Draw doesn't look too demonising though .... you'd expect them to win all 3 but after a loss to FRE all projections are out the window ...

Gawn got a pretty hard schedule coming up ...
- Schedule aside he has probably been IMO the best Ruck (Goldy coming) .... just got limited options worth giving it to or capable of receiving and using it effectively ...
- He does have Viney, Petracca and Mr handball to a mate about to be tackled (Oliver) though ...
- Also has ROB, Goldy and Grundy in the next 3 games .... that will test him but not the worst draw wise ...

Goldy got a reasonable schedule coming up ... not easy but not the worst ...
- Main issue is like MEL he has no "inside" receivers ...
- Plenty of run on the outside .... Higgins, Polec, Simpkin, Hall etc ... but really missing Cunnington, Ziebell etc at the coal face IMO ...
- Upcoming schedule looks to be GEE (??), Gawn and BRI (??) .... can see a lot of pain team wise looming ...

Anyone know if Vlastuin will play this week?

Critical for some draft trade plans...
Nick Vlastuin, calf

"Nick trained today (Sunday) with the group and did some running two days ago as well. It was very minor and it was a tough decision not to play him (against the Bulldogs) because he wasn't too bad. But with the three games in the space of 10 days, it was just the right call. But he'll play on Tuesday night."

I believe I’m most likely looking at this post trades:

Lloyd Ridley Laird Stewart Ling (Doc, Williamson, Rivers)
Neale Macrae Oliver Danger Duncan Bont Pickett Bennell (Titch McHenry Close)
Gawn Grundy (Draper)
Dusty Whitfield Simpkin BSmith Rankine Georgiadas (Taylor/Budarick Comben)

Mids looking good, in need of another forward.
