Charlie and Marchbank back this week.
2 rucks has always had the dual impact of losing one runner which hamstrings the team and Kreuzer's form immediately goes right to sh$t.
Phillips has to be dropped - as much as I like him. Great to have strong backup options though.
O'Shea has to go. Graham will probably be dropped and Sammo looks like he needs a rest.
Kennedy looks tentative to me. Not 100% confident in his body.

Wonder if Rowe or Jones will go forward to take the 2nd ruck role. Jones did that so well in the VFL last year before his promotion. Either would have the effect of shrinking our defence. Jones would be better has he and Weitering play similarly. Like you said, 2 rucks hamstrings us and means we pick one less runner for no reason. Kreuzer plays alot better with the continuity on the ball as does Casboult when he gets a run on the ball.
I'm wondering about Kennedy's fitness. just 69% game time last week.

Word I have is Daniher is out.
Probably a bad thing for us because nobody has wasted more footy and burnt more team-mates recently than Daniher!

Some back room rumors suggest it's closer to Pisum Cordis!

It's a crap of an injury... and hard to get over.
Made even crappier by the fact that it will now be the "injury ravaged Dons" >

Nothing to do with me, in this case it's the media who are the ones deserving the credit, they knew about this well before it was publicly announced!
Personally, I'd doubt he gets up from Planta Fasciitis in just three weeks, so it will be a surprise!
