Our club doesn't get it but it is clear you don't have to win the ruck to get things moving in your preferred direction. You can lose the ruck contest in such a manner that your opponent starts hitting the ball where you want it to go, all the time thinking they are winning!
It sure is LP.
What I have noticed since Kreuzer's return is that, while he may not win all ruck contests, most of his hitouts go to our advantage and rarely result in opposition clearances. Our failing is that we don't take full advantage of our good ruck and clearance work.
