I'm convinced that is the perception of him, and I don't mind him being like that and one for the people, but not as our President.

He's not Corporate, and he's not self made and....he aint got what it takes to run this club.

He's been there done that. We need more. We need smarter people at the helm.

Other club Presidents are going to ask him for his opinion or to lead a Presidents forum. Reason? Obvious.

AFL have given them the week off for a job well done!
I think it was something along the lines of "a well deserved rest".

They had a rest in the last quarter Surrey. It was pretty easy work. They only had to pay free kicks for one team.

Thinking ahead to the 2014 game with Hawthorn without Buddy (see GWS slary offer). He kicked 4 goals. His absence means CFC should get a win.

As silly as it sounds.....as good as Buddy is, I don't reckon they'll be much worse off without him.

For a start Nic Nat and Cox were all Aust last year, Kruz had to do it all himself last week and did very well.

I think most posters would be lying if they said they didn't expect Kreuzer to be dominating post 23yo.

I would be surprised if any poster says they didn't expect Kreuzer to be better as a ruckman and at marking thatn he is.

That doesn't suggest that Kreuzer is a dud as a footballer.

But I think more to the point maybe Bigred meant that NicNat (pick 2) and Cox (rookie) are miles ahead of our rucks Kreuzer (pick 1), Hampson (pick 17) and Warnock (pick 23).

Both Nic Nat and Cox have an allround game: tapping, marking, kicking, handballing, linking....none of ours have that.

That's pretty disappointing imo.

And to think, all of them were drafted/recruited under pressure to secure quality 'big men'. I tell you, it's more trouble than it's worth. You get more value out of the whole process if you take a freer attitude towards it.

..dominating post 23?, fair chance he would have, if he didn't have a two and a half year ACL setback..

..in regards to rucking, he had 32 hitouts vs hawks, at 41% adv.. ..that's huge, and more than either cox or nicnat had.... ..in regards to marking, 2013 averages he's better than average, and is ahead of NicNat [though not as flashy].. ..Cox is very good, but he racks up good marking numbers more'so when playing 2nd ruck to Nicnat..

..Krooz has a very balanced and all-round game.. ..NicNat and Cox are a rare ruck combo that works well together week in, week out.. ..very few ruck combo's are as consistently good as cox and nicnat.. ..Krooz has Casboult as his back-up, a developing KPF and not a pure ruck, plus Bolt has to play a proper KPF role up fwd when not rucking, so he's carrying a big workload.. ..Cox wasnt as good earlier in the year when rucking mostly alone..
