FORMER Sydney Swans ruckman Daniel Currie looms a NAB AFL Draft smokey, with several Victorian clubs believed to be interested in the 200cm 23-year-old.

I'm sure we would be one of the "several Victorian clubs" interested.

Would make a handy back up ruck to have on our list.

we have been talking with hickey why pick him as well?

I would say Currie is one of the many options we are looking at.

Doesn't necessarily mean we will draft him.

Why aren't we talking about Zac Clarke anymore ? He has apparently requested a trade to vic - he ticks every box in my book as ruck who can go forward

Because we need at least 3-4 real rucks on our list. At this stage is McEvoy and no-one else as core rucks. Stanley, Kossi, Blake, Wilkes do not cut it. Most clubs have a good 3rd ruck on their list. At Sydney it was Seaby (and Jesse White as a good 4th); Hawthorn had Bailey; Carlton have Hampson/Warnock etc etc.

I would have thought we would recruit one ruckman ready to play now, and a young one to develop via the draft. Darcy Fort, Lewis Pearce, Chris Prowse and Cameron Symonds all seem okay to me.

Worth a look

Definitely!

If he comes good, he can be coined 'Hot Currie'.

get him then, based on that alone

[gringo]

He's the right age to hit the ground running.

[Saintlester]

Averaged 11.2 disposals, 4.3 marks, 1.7 tackles and 23.1 hitouts in SANFL this season. Didn't really hear of him actually setting the world on fire. Was at Sydney for a while without making any real impression. Still big guys often take longer but reckon drafting a young ruckman is a better prospect.

Tom Hickey is a much better prospect IMO let's hope of all the trade talk we at least get him !

Another option for Football Nation.

UPDATE: 4/10/12 - FREMANTLE ruckman Zac Clarke wants to be traded to a Victorian club and has told the Dockers he wishes to do so. Clarke is one of many ruckman up for grabs including North’s Hamish McIntosh, who has told the Roos he wants to be traded to Geelong.

Don't write Currie off.

He's only 23 years old.

May be something of a "late korma"
