I think Krooz is a so-so ruckman who needs quality support and Phillips will provide that.
They have done everything possible to make sure Levi goes nowhere near the ruck, even preferring Rowe sometimes.
He's been alright on his own in the tap dept for years and on his own he is very good around the ground. Happily sacrifice a few tap outs for that. Casboult was rucking against Collingwood, had a great game, best ever for the club, and Port, although lasted 5 min in that. He hasn't rucked due to his injury but surely that's ok now. Balance is definitely way better with one ruck whoever it is. Like I said, opens a position for a different type of player rather than a slow ruckman who mightn't do much. Worst comes to it I'd sacrifice a little in the ruck anyway for better balance around the ground. Much more important to me. Do I want a ruckman resting in the goalsquare or another key forward. Easy answer.
