Yes both can ruck, just not very well. Cripps takes more forward 50 ruck contests than Harry (not that I really want to see Cripps in ruck contests).
More importantly, who takes the opposition's key forwards when Jones is in the ruck? And who becomes our forward focus when Harry is rucking? Both Jones and McKay are such vital cogs in our goal to goal line that we can't afford to use them elsewhere.
McDonald doesn't have much idea of ruckwork and gives away far too much size to most of the second string rucks. Casboult is at least competitive against genuine ruckmen.
Depending on match ups, I reckon that we will play two of Pittonet, Casboult and De Koning in most games.
