I think we did wrong by Kerr rucking him, we tried to turn him into another Casboult, when Casboult was a ruck long before he was a forward.
Kerr had never been a ruck as a kid, and I note we've did similar with Jones, but now that Jones is proving a useful KPD we've killed the idea of him rucking. I don't know why that is the case, KPDs are a thousand times easier to find than an effective KPF, and yet we ruck Casboult and we've even tried rucking McKay leaving Jones in D50!
Jones was super-impressive rucking in the VFL before he came into the AFL as a defender, he played ruck in much the same way De Koning plays ruck at the moment.
To me it's just another example of our clubs weird logic.
