Vossy wouldn't have Cuners in the team if wasn't working his butt off but he does give the impression that he's cruising.

But after the game his first comment when asked about rucking was his shins are sore, and sore shins are a pre-cursor to a knee(PCL) and even a minor PCL will smash acceleration.
Like Cripps use him in the F50 at throw ins and ball ups, but the centre square stuff send chills down my spine, the benefit is so small and the risk is so high!
We will divide up ruck duties across the season, there will be weeks when pace isn't the priority issue, and it was clearly the issue last finals and last night, we even mentioned it in the pre-game thread that some of the selections can be explained by a need for pace. Other weeks we'll want size or strength around stoppages or a ruck option that floats a kick behind or into D50 which Pitto does far better than others.
So it mostly depends more on opposition strengths and weaknesses, more than our own, as we now have depth we can leverage. We won't become formulaic, because if we do we are predictable and that is the worst thing an AFL team can be.
Nothing helps a key forward more than having a run on the ball occasionally. Nothing like getting away from multiple defenders and getting your hands on the ball running about on your own. Needs to wear pads around the shins if rucking. Daniher does a great job as 2nd ruck for Brisbane. If you can have an extra runner going round that's a bonus. Better than having someone with fewer touches that can just win a few tap outs.

Neale has a separate set of rules, and our boys get pinged a lot for stuff others get away with.

I think last nights game was good from an umpiring perspective. The bold bit is utter nonsense.

When Saad was pinged, if it's the event I recall, the umpire was guessing. Why, because the umpire who made the call was directly behind the players and couldn't see which player dragged the ball back.
Re: AFL Rd 0 2024 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs Brisbane - LoveNavy - 03-09-2024
Watching the replay and see Neale's dog acts that others have referenced.
- dumping Saad outside of play was aggressive and unnecessary
- held Kennedy in a chicken wing to stop his influence, then pushed him into Crippa's lega. Simply dirty deeds..
- his "what about me" gesturing to umps was most unbecoming
Respect dwindling for mine
- q2 pulling the ball back in under a Crippa tackle ignored by a nearby umpire!!!
Sheesh
