Phew! That makes feel a little better about the pick fellas 
Any idea what hit outs to disadvantage was? I'm sure i saw his score drop when he was tapping it directly to the other team...but had a look at the SC scoring rules and it doesn't appear listed (yes i know they don't disclose all) but thought it would be listed if he did in fact lose points for hit outs to disadvantage,

Yeah you'd think so. Would've thought someone would've asked freako by now actually.
Looking at Maric's stats:
- 8 kicks, 5 handballs, 13 disposals (9 contested), 85% disposal efficiency, 4 marks, 2 frees for, 2 frees against, 33 hitouts (4 to advantage)
On face value looks better than a 91 AF : 82 SC type ratio if hitouts to disadvantage weren't being negatively scored, which is pretty much why i've made the conclusion that they are losing points.
It will be real interesting to see how rucks are scored this weekend. It's a big part of the reason why i've gone off 2 premium ruckmen as well!

Had Maric locked until late then chickened out. There are very few ruckmen I rate but I still can't seem to make things fit.
Jacobs (Too expensive when you consider the 600k mids you could have. One good season)
Mumford (This year I've made a promise not to spend 10 trades through 2 ruck positions)
Goldstein (Check)
Natanui (Maybe. Not cheap. Slightly undervalued. One good season 113 and next best is 96. Misses games with frequent late withdrawals. If he kills it will be in no way unobtainable. All up too risky for me.)
Maric (One good year. Sketchy injury history)
Minson (Plodder but No.1 ruck. Should be good for averaging 90-100)
TBC - (Never considered until reading training reports and named as no.1 ruck. Doesn't meet a half decent ruck until round 6 Sandi. At his price I've turbo charged my midfield by getting in a 6th premium and it feels good! Will be well and truly traded out early and gives time to assess who's flying and who's not. Sandi to Goldy last year was my best move by a long way. Hoping for same scenario this year.
Don't rate or consider any other rucks except for Ryder into the forward line come upgrade time.
Started as Goldy and Natanui. Goldy and Maric. Goldy and Minson. Goldy and Natanui. Now Goldy and TBC. Gotta nail rucks one year surely.
