Yes. We played him everywhere except. Even tried to make a full back out of him.

I used to bore the people I go to the footy with AND the people we say near AND you forumites with my "Stanley is a ruckman" rants.

Was please to see him contest, spread and use the ball well.

Will get better with an extended run in the ruck.

Maybe the club realised this but we already got Hickey and Billy, hence the trade.

Yes a win-win for the players and clubs involved. We won't be disappointed in Goddard.

Will continue to enjoy Stanley's progress and found myself barracking for him last night.

I thinking playing him in the ruck is his true position. He looks like the protype ruck rover.
