Bolger is probably the guy who rucks the most, at 195 cm. Alex Aurrechio, from America, has done some and also plays down back. I don't know if he is ready yet, but he has a fair bit of athleticism.
I was looking at the NB's list and there was nobody above 200 cm. The Development Squad do sometimes use one of Northern's rucks on promotion, but usually survive on smaller types.
I do know that the NB's were in discussions with some taller types in the preseason, but I have no idea how serious they were. From the outcome, I'd say they were not serious at all.
Live Long and Prosper!
