There can be no doubt Kreuzer is our best ruck option. The lad is champ and like many are saying does his best work by spending most of the game at the coal face pushing opposition midfielders around.
But reality is he won't be making the taps to our next premiership winning midfield. He is vital to our short term survival, but we need a plan B and I doubt it is either Philips or Lobbe

You have heard of De Koning and Mckay right?

The idea posted earlier that jumpers are a tell about a player's intent is rubbish, step in SOS or Hunter!
I did read the whole thread, but I got lost following the worms in your head, I do agree with you that long or short sleeves have nothing to with a players “intent”

The catch 22 is that the only way they get that sort of experience is by displacing Kreuzer - and consensus suggests he does his best work when he's rucking solo for nearly the whole match.

Re: 2018 Rd 9: Post Game Calm: Carlton vs Melbourne - Barbs - 05-22-2018
So our pathway to success is to trade out Kreuzer to save salary cap space and let Casboult take over the ruck until De Koning is ready to carry the load in 2020?

This part time ruck/odd job player started with Jolly and Leigh Brown ...Brown wasnt much of a ruckman but he used to run around cleaning up players and being more of a physical presence rather than providing any ruck stats..
