Travis Tuck worth a punt?

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2013-06-11/t ... -thrashing

26 years old big body
190cm
96kg
Will help in midfield good player......drug thing a issue but might be gold above pick 60??

[WellardSaint]

Yes. Proven talent. Hard-bodied and mature. Should re-invent himself at another club because he can make a fresh start. Why not us? Great support for Armo/Jack/NDS.
Can't see a negative.

[Sainternist]

I don't see why not. At this stage we're going to need all the help we can get in the midfield. Someone with a powerful build, agile and a bustling mover to help bust out some centre clearances is required. Tuck could be a go to guy. He sounds like he could be a Mark Ricciuto-type player. Exactly what we need.

[ROLS-LEE]

As a above. For a late pick.

[Hurricane]

As long as he doesnt cost us the world I think that trade would be very good for us

BANG BANG

[saintspremiers]

No. He's another Wilksey. A GOP.

[SuperDuper]

Simply no point getting a 27 year old (by the time he plays for us). the best he can do is help win 1-2 more games in the next 2 years.... Not worth it. We need to plan longer term than that, I am afraid... would rather take a punt with a kid at pick 60

Woudl take him if we were challenging.... I recon he is decent AFL standard for the next 3-4 years..

[Kernal75]

Absolutely. If he's 27 then he will be able to shield some of the new midfield talent we will acquire in the next couple of drafts. We're not challenging but he would help development and fill a gap

[MCG-Unit]

Yes I would take Travis Tuck for a late pick. Subject to a medical and let him do the pre-season with the Saints.

Better suggestion than the other thread, wanting to trade Dal Santo or Montagna for DP 19.....

[robbie muir]

The guy is 32 in December so no way.

We have had enough Richmond rejects over the years (Pattison, Fiora etc all the way back to Billy Barrott)

Use the pick on a young kid

[robbie muir]

Sorry guys my apology , thought we were talking about Shane Tuck

[mightysainters]

u know the guy found in his car sluped over the wheel at berwick station after having a bender

Showed huge potential.

He's killing it at SANFL level. He would be okay for a late pick gamble- we need a few older guys for when Lenny and co move on.
