Witts, McKernan, Sandy and Vardy are all starting rucks worth $310k or less

Leuenberger will be back by Round 4. I wouldn't touch Mckernan. If Leuenberger stays healthy after that Mckernan will only be used sparingly through the year and mainly as a forward. There will be little to no cash generation

Why is no one thinking of Martin?

I currently have Martin and Sandilands with Nankervis in the forward line

How's everyone feeling about the Rucks this close to the season opener?
Boys on the pod keen on Sandiwitts, how's the rest of SCC Community shaping up?!

At moment I have Goldylands, but not confident at all!

I've always preferred set and forget in the rucks. This year I have no confidence that can be done. So, I'm taking the risk on SandiWitts, and hoping I spend the money smart enough elsewhere. Should make for an interesting year!

So you are you taking Toby as FWD line cover? Or looking to a playing Cameron or English?

Nankipoo is my ruck coverage as well as a fair go at a mid-priced forward - hedging the bets here!

I'm also going in with Sandi and Witts, with Nank in the fwrd line.
It's amazing what opens up around the field with those 2 im the Rucks.

Gutsy. I played around with it a bit, think I might use as it as my back up team if team sheets don't go my way.
What's your structure?

I'm sticking with Maxylands. I put Witts on my field for a minute the other day. It was how I'd imagine pimping out the missus to be.... The money was great and all the things you could do with thst extra coin... But it just felt dirty and wrong and I couldn't go through with it.

The boys on the podcast were very big on backing your gut feel if it's a line ball decision. If it doesnt look right or feel right then don't do it.
i have $270k to upgrade a player so maybe Witts to martin/ryder/hickey/sauce
