There can be no doubt Kreuzer is our best ruck option. The lad is champ and like many are saying does his best work by spending most of the game at the coal face pushing opposition midfielders around.
But reality is he won't be making the taps to our next premiership winning midfield. He is vital to our short term survival, but we need a plan B and I doubt it is either Philips or Lobbe
Just to show you dont need Polly Farmer or Big Nic to win a flag, here are the last 10 Premiership Ruckmen:
2017 Toby Nankervis
2016 Jordan Roughead Tom Boyd
2015 Ben McEvoy
2014 Ben McEvoy David Hale
2013 Max Bailey David Hale
2012 Mike Pyke Shane Mumford
