Will selects Rucks last given there are good options both mid priced and gun priced.

I was watching the famous Brisbane come back against your fellas in round 13 or so, and Dawson Simpson looked knackered before the last quarter, if he has a good pre-season, I think he could be a good choice, I definitely rate him

Oh god don't remind me of that game. Daws was also running out games a lot better a few games on which is pretty encouraging (though he won't be into full training until later this month unfortunately).

Has he played enough to be discounted because of injury?
Only played 6 games so should get a discount (fingers crossed). Macintosh got a 10% discount after playing 7 games last year so by that logic Simpson should also get one, but VS are notorious for their inconsistency with discounts.

Will be interesting to see who will land Rd 1 Ruck role...McIntosh or Dawson.
If Macca gets it, he's in my team. If Daws get it, Sandilands comes in

MacIntosh should be reduced to rookie priced and see the beggars pick him up as R3 or R4 . . . and then gets injured in round 1 warm up.

But apparently he won't because he started at 450K last year I think and his discount will be like 30% or somewhere around that figure.

It is a pitty that it is only around 30% because he is a bit of a mystery player. has ability but hasn't played for so long and is not young. it is like people saying every year that moribito is fit and firing.

Ablity no doubt. If he makes it through preseasn is the No.1 Ruck come Rd 1, he'll be a lock in my team although I'll most likely upgrade come the bye rounds.
