As the 2022 season approaches, we take a look at the best performing ruckmen throughout the 2021 season to try and gauge which of these talls sits on top of the rankings going into the new season.
Here is our top 10 list of the best ruckmen in the league for this upcoming season.
2. Brodie Grundy
An elite player both on the ball and as a ruck, Grundy was one of Collingwood's standout players in what was otherwise a fairly disappointing season for the Pies.
Despite Collingwood's struggles, Grundy maintained his place among the top echelon of ruckmen from previous seasons, cementing himself as one of the best talls in the league without question.
Grundy leads the league's big men in average disposals per game (19.1), handballs per game (9.9) and hit-outs per game (32.4), proving just how good his on-ball skills are for a player of his stature.
