2 ruckmen out, the other a no show at training. This could get really ugly.
Pitto's only real problem is that he cannot stay on the park. This would have been a good time to blood Mirkov, but he's out until next year. Young and Silvagni try, but they aren't rucks.
We can't take a trick on the injury front.

That we are.

Fortunately for me, I have our family salami making day on Sunday so can't go or watch on TV. I can't say I'm unhappy about that.

If we're lucky we will have one ruck versus Ned Reeve whomakes Pitto look undersized, if not we'll have SoJ and Young!
If our Mids aren't completely dominant and efficient we are completely screwed!

Well, with no rucks at all, it will settle the argument as to whether rucks are important.

Not really. We're not going up against Darcy or Gawn here.

They will have a ruckman.
There's a chance we won't.

Collingwood had no rucks for a while and showed you can still be competitive if you get inventive ...
