Don't need to be the prettiest of players if they're hug and have mongrel?
There is a shed load of more traditional Mumford rucks in and around clubs that are targets.
In recent years they feel out of favour with the clubs prefer to recruit athlete types like Phillips and turn them into rucks in the mould of mobile rucks like Blicavs and Kreuzer. A few of us have talked about them in the Mid Season Draft thread, as the gain maturity and endurance they would be more than useful in a role like a Nankervis.
Commentators like Wilson and Browne have no idea when the state there is a dearth of rucks available, they are just talking about TAC Cup types that aren't in the Grundy or Kreuzer grade. Anyway, we've already De Koning in that range, we need an intimidating monster not another cross country runner.
