One thing that came out of tonight's game was the importance of a ruckman who can deliver the ball to his midfielders. Anyone who thinks that (a) good ruckmen are overrated, or (b) Wood is going to play a role this season has rocks in their head.
Yeah spot on DJ (about part a that is). As well beaten as Wood was by Jacobs, he was more effective than Kruiz. Granted it was Kruiz's first game back after injury, but even last season Kruiz didn't provide a clear advantage in ruck.
