It worked somewhat because it was unexpected. It doesn't now. Clubs are ready for it, and it does nothing to help Jack's play.
Last year in round 1 Pittonet had a good battle with Nankervis for most of the game which allowed a fresh TDK to smash him in the final term.
Its time to end this Silvagni in the ruck nonsense. It doesn't work and our results in the 2nd half of last year show this.
We need Pitto back, but is he fit enough yet? Do we try one of the kids, or would be be less effective than Jack?
I don't know, but I really want to see Pitto play like he did early last year. It is take some weeks to have him find real form, I'll live with it (and won't like it), but we need a bull ruckman on the ground.
Live Long and Prosper!
