    We have two genuine first rucks ready for AFL duties - English & Sweet. Lobb's more forward, Darcy developing, and Josh Bruce is barely passable as a second ruck.

    I really think we're thin in the ruck department and English always misses games.
    You're not wrong about GC, but they had four injuries in one position! No team can cover that.

    I think most clubs would have two 'match-ready' AFL rucks', plus makeshift or developing options.

    Adelaide - ROB and Strachan
    Brisbane - McInerney and Fort
    Carlton - Pittonet and TDK
    Collingwood - Cameron and Cox
    Essendon - Draper and Phillips
    Freo - Darcy and Jackson
    Cats - Stanley and Ceglar plus Blicavs
    ....
    I'm sure I could go on. I just don't see the point in adding someone to the list who we don't think is any good, and wouldn't get a game ahead of Bruce/Darcy/a midfielder rucking.
