Not sure how Pruess expected it to work with Gawn.....unless he thought ruck combos like Lycett/Vardy and Grundy/Cox were going to be the next fad after both played in the GF.
Its interesting how Collingwood are going with 3 ruckman in the senior team....
I don’t think it matters how many ruckmen you play provided they can (a) at least neutralise the opposition rucks and (b) be effective in another role. Kreuzer excepted (in terms of ruckwork and around the ground presence), ours aren’t particularly good at either, although Casboult gave a fairly good impression of second ruck/key forward (apart from his poster) on Saturday.
