Yep its a much talked about topic but its hard to argue against that....Can't be that hard to argue against it. I've been arguing with 90% of the people on here about it for a couple years.
It will be interesting to see what the selection folk do with the rucks this week.Surely not
It will tell a bit of a story as to how committed they are to the "Two ruck solution"
I know we are all probably sick to death of talking about it but...Daniel Hoyne from Champion Data was on SEN last night talking about the decision to play Pitto. Rattled off the amount of times we have won "turnover game" playing only TDK. Was 60% from memory compared to I think it was 25% when we played both. Also TDK played forward for 30 mins on Saturday and was targeted only once. Further to this, H doesn't get to ruck which affects his game and the team because he impacts when he plays ruck.Yep its a much talked about topic but its hard to argue against that in the modern game its hard to carry two genuine rucks who are of little value elsewhere and the allrounder ruck who can play either KP or somewhere else on the ground has to be the priority and that it was odd vs a pacy team who have troubled us previously who only carry one genuine ruck themselves why Pittonet was selected. It was a MC blunder that didnt help but hindered our efforts...
Hopefully the MC listen to SEN...
Hate to say it, but can't see how we can win this. We struggle with fast-running sides, and GWS have that in buckets.I too cant see how we can beat GWS but guess what, our recent history shows we dont give and we find a way.
The one glint of optimism is Harry and Charlie with no Sam Taylor. But then again, I thought they would kick big bags against Freo and Adelaide for similar reasons......
14 players out, playing the top team which hasn't lost all season, no worries. Carlton by five goals.
