Unless there is an issue with one of the rucks, O'Keefe is just there for show.
In the unlikely event that he does play it just reinforces the fact that the coaching group are committed to two rucks.
So that then begs the question....
If a coaching group that contains a Brownlow medallist and triple premiership mid-fielder with over 150 games of senior coaching, and years as an assistant at a moderately successful Port...and our best ruckman this century think that there are times when the two ruck option should be used.
and
knowing the strengths and weaknesses, and fitness levels of both our ruckman far better than any of us.
Why are they on a different page to those questioning the two ruck set-up?
They're either as stubborn as mules, or they have a 'cunning' plan that depends on time for Pittonet and TDK to work together and develop a combination.
In all the games both have played probably less half have been together.
In the end they'll either work it out or abandon it.
I really like your perspective, Principal LODS. Could very well be the case. And HOK definitely has something/the goods as a ruckman. Raw as heck but his 2nd and 3rd efforts are there for all to see. Agree his is probably named as an emergency as encouragement.
Just watched the final qtr of the Croweaters game... coulda, shoulda won by about 4-5 goals but there was an element of cockiness/lairising which let the Croweaters in. Arrogantly, perhaps, I suspect this was a game we lost more than the opposition won.

Just for something different, talk on BF is that Zac Williams will be a late out with soreness. May as well just name a fucken VFL side at this rate.

IF accurate, a tough job just got much tougher.
On the bright side we can replace him with a debutant ruckman ?

If that happens, i reckon i'll have to buy a new laptop as this one will become a feature in the nearest wall. :o
