Darcy Cameron picked by the Pies as their second ruckman - almost 25 with two career games!

Rowan Marshall at the Saints who only started coming good last year - 35 games and 6 months older.
Preuss at the Dees - 15 career games (2 clubs), 25 yesterday. 1 year older.
Smith at the Lions - almost 25, 11 games.
2nd rucks, the definition of placeholders behind guys like Grundy, Ryder, Martin, Kreuzer, .
Preuss is down the ruck pecking order at the Dees, they've already picked up another kid to supersede him. Preuss might play ruck in the VFL, but that is basically two clubs and two fails, yet not many would suggest Preuss is weaker ruck option than Pittonet.
Smith at the Lions is in 3rd or 4th place in the 1st ruck pecking order.
Marshall needed Ryder to bail him out as a 1st ruck option, yet Marshall cleaned up our own 2nd ruck options and would be rated by most of our fans as well ahead of a guy like Pittonet.
