Position Ruck Discussion

I am actually hoping he gets dropped so the decision is made for me.
With Sloane unlikely and a few rookies likely to vanish I might have more issues.
Queries on Grundy as well.
Jacobs - > Pittonet seems logical but then if Pittonet doesn't work in the next few rounds it will take another 2 trades to fix again , seems I will be just going sideways.

Sauce did look bad, like real bad, it was almost like he was told to just put an appearance in the ruck and then keep out the way, he offered nothing, almost disinterested.
Goldy looked competitive and invested. Reckon a Goldy / Gawn combo might also do ok this year, at least on initial appearances. So tempted to just bring them in and trade out Jacobs and Naismith, but it's just the bubble boy rookies stopping me, money vs points (have Pitt@ R3).

I think Pitto will be pretty safe.
TDK is a much lighter frame than Pitto, I can't see them throwing him in as a sole ruck, particularly coming off an injury niggle.
This was exactly what Pitto was recruited for, be readily available to backup Kreuzer when injured for a year or two before taking ownership of the number 1 ruck post.

Really interesting article, including stats and video on Gawn v Grundy

Might be able to go :-
Sloane - > Pittonet (R3)
Jacobs - > Gawn
and then hopefully it is set and forget Rucks
May not have enough bench players generating $$$ but will worry about that later
Still think you need to get your rookies right early though so definitely considering Sturt if named.
Bring on the team sheets
