Luke Parker has some interesting insights on the ruck situation, per SEN interview: Audioboom / Luke Parker on SEN Breakfast
Pretty much what I've been saying, in that the team looks to break even on the ruck contests and plays it more defensively.
No one wants to see players get injured, but it's almost a certainty that we will be without a genuine ruckman some time this year. Then we will be forced to implement a 'ruckman-light' policy, maybe going with an Aliir-Towers combo. Once we discover how well this works, there may be no going back.
