Matthew Leuenberger
2013 Price: $260k
2012 Games: 3
2012 Ave: 70
2011 Games: 22
2011 Ave: 102
Leuenberger only played 3 games in 2012 due to an achilles injury which will mean he will cheap in 2013. Coming of his best season in 2011 Leuenberger played every game and has an impressive 102 point average. If he can recover from his achilles problem and have a strong pre-season, don't be surprised to see him as one of the most popular picks of Supercoach 2013!
2013 Supercoach Point Average Prediction: 90-100

Gawn is one of the tallest players in the league standing at 208 cms. Because it does take young ruckmen a few
seasons to start playing some good footy (and Gawn will be entering his 4th season next year), he might be a rough chance to step up and help Jamar in the ruck. Even though Gawn has only played 4 games in his career he is someone to watch as a bench option at $145k next year!
2013 Supercoach Point Average Prediction: 65-70
Daniel Gorringe
Price: $185k
2012 Games: 1
2012 Ave: 35
2011 Games: 7
2011 Ave: 35
Taken at number 10 in the 2010 draft by the Suns, Gorringe looks like a very promising young ruckman. Gorringe only played 1 game this year after 7 in 2011, but 2013 could be the year Gorringe breaks out and shows the football world why he was a top 10 draft pick. Gorringe averaged 35 Supercoach points in both 2011 and 2012 but hopefully in next season he can increase that to 70 and could be handy on your ruck bench.
2013 Supercoach Point Average Prediction: 65-70
Nathan Vardy
Price: $205k
2012 Games: 1
2012 Ave: 56
2011 Games: 9
2011 Ave: 54
Vardy is one of the best young ruckmen in the competition and after missing most of season 2012 with injury, he is going to be cheap in 2013. With a strong pre season he'll definitely be worth a look. Vardy will be 22 next year, entering his 4th AFL season and, with Geelong's weak ruck division he will be given plenty of games. He is a good chance to average more than 70+ if he has a strong pre season - someone to keep your eye on at $205k!
