No JSOS no Carlton. We just lost the heart of the team.
 Who will step up and be the Defib?
2024... Moir of the same to come

We’ll miss Jack but the team has better balance with two ruckmen.
Lobb is a big unit but he is not much chop as a ruckman. De Koning hasn’t been great but he should have Lobb’s measure when Pitto and Darcy have a spell.

Do we think Jack really did injure himself sufficiently to need a week off or was this a case of cold feet as the coaches grappled with the need for a 2nd ruck?

I admit that I was somewhat sceptical when I heard of his "injury". Anyhow, hopefully DK will grab his opportunity.
Reality always wins in the end.

I thought the articles covering his late withdrawal suggested it was a training incident. Could be wrong on that though. But If I'm speculating the reasons given for the swap might be BS, then I guess I shouldn't place much reliance on what was said while announcing it.
