Re: AFL Elimination Final 1 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Sydney

I can see a good argument for going in with just one ruck for a game in wild conditions.
It's probably a wait and see, to have a look how bad conditions are...there's a bit of a difference of opinion as to how bad they will be come match time.
You can always make a change like one of the rucks for one of the emergencies if conditions demand.
The one ruck/two ruck argument probably comes down a bit to the opposition.
I reckon we'd struggle against Melbourne if we went in with just one.
I reckon we'd struggle against the Swans with their one ruck and two (or three) ruck/forwards. Unlike Harry, McLean is a competent ruckman and McDonald and Amartey know their way around a ball up.
