Darren Jolly was #31 in the Rookie Draft in 2001.St Ick wrote:Niknat, Kruezer, Jolly, Mac... most of the time the top one or two rucks are taken by the time 30 comes around.Con Gorozidis wrote:rule to live by. never use a good draft pick on a ruckmqn.
they will only disappoint. like all rules there are freakish exceptions like nicnat but i wouldnt part with anything under 30 for a ruckman.

Re: How good is Hicky actually?
st ick said jolly was a high pick - he wasnt. he was a rookie.
im saying nicnat is a freak.
but apart from him i wouldnt use a top 30 pick on a ruckman ever. its too risky.
thats what im saying and thats what im sticking to.

What a generalisation. Who's gonna play in the ruck?
Blakey has to retire sooner or later
In Springfield, they're eating the dogs. The people that came in, they're eating the cats. They’re eating – they are eating the pets of the people that live there.

We're doing much the same with the GC although Hickey is about 8 years younger than Jolly when Collingwood drafted him.
Does it make sense now?
