Also around the ground includes stoppages in our D50, I think Port scored a couple of their goals from stoppages inside 50 as a result of Ryder being dominant.
Fans on this forum complained for years about us running with two rucks, yet we hear crickets when two rucks do a job on us like Port's did at the weekend, and for the second week running opposition rucks have been in the BoG!
Phillips isn't Kreuzer to start with.
Both opposition rucks dominated around the ground. Tell me, what are ours going to do there. They won't be touching it much. Means two blokes on the ground barely getting a kick. That's why 2 rucks fails us every time. Think about it. If we pick 2 rucks it's something like Kreuzer and De Koning.
How would we pick 2 rucks in rounds 1 and 2 anyway when we already have Charlie, Harry and McGovern in the side. Who goes out?...lol.
