AFL Rd 6 2022 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Fremantle

[Thryleon]

I agree that we have to play two rucks against Freo but is De Koning up to contesting against Darcy and Lobb?

If McDonald's good to go, I'd prefer to see his strength, experience and maturity put to the test.  Alternatively, McDonald could slot back in as KPD and Young could have the back up ruck duties.  I know Young is inexperienced but he seems more comfortable in a test of strength than De Koning.

If we do bring in a second ruck, who goes out?

They both get blown over by a stiff breeze imho.  Young not up to it competitively and needs to run and jump at it ala De Koning.
