JLT Round 1 - Blues v Hird's Old Crew (this Thursday, Princes Park)

[Tragic]

Yes, I’m just not sure where we’ll hide/rest the one who is not on the ball  :-\

I guess they will spend time on the bench as well as giving Harry an occasional spell.  I wonder if we’ll see the “resting ruckmen” playing on each other as in the olden days.

I reckon you must be right.  If you only rotate ruckmen between each other and Harry and Charlie and Gov, then at any one time there will always be one of those 5 players on the bench, and when the 2nd ruckman is on the ground, he'll be replacing one of the tall forwards.  If you did that the structure would always remain the same.  The only problem I see with that is we want those 3 tall forwards playing together as a unit as often as possible, so you'd think the ruckman would take longer spells on the bench, otherwise there really isn't anywhere else to hide them.
