Good debate about our ruck setup bei g had by commentators. Identifying that an average ruck is very much overrated.
Question remains what does our coaching staff value.
Tdk is the constant tease. Looks good grabbing it out of the ruck but stuffs the kick and creates a shot on goal. But if he can get it done....??
Pittonet is your meat and potatoes guy who grinds all game and adds more ruck craft and our mids benefit from that. But does he do enough around the ground??
Harry is an adequate 2nd ruck and means we 100% shouldn't play 2 others. So who do we choose?
Like last year, I suspect tdk will be first choice.
Hopefully unlike.last year he takes the next step and keeps it.....but he needs to improve his ruck craft and minimise opposition rucks influence.....clearly gawn is a bridge too far but we can't hold that against him. As long as it's not the same against the average rucks.
Pitto being injured/underdone probably makes it an easy decision early, but I don't envy the MCs job.
