On this years form Ebert isn't a lock most weeks (and no I'm not saying trade him for some other posters). I'd still have him in the side. I don't think Broadbent been consistent enough to be a lock either.
If we are going with best side, rather than what Ken will do I'd drop Lobbe for S. Gray, leaving Ryder as the main ruck. Trengove, Westhoff, Dixon can pinch hit. I'd only bring in Lobbe against sides that have two genuine quality rucks. And I'd assume the sub rule is gone. And if Schulz goes I'd be tempted most weeks to play Butcher alongside Dixon (if still on the list), in place of one of Jonas or Broadbent. Jonas, Broadbent, Pittard, Impey, Krakouer and Hartlett of HB. If we get Dixon as a tall target we don't need to go with a side overloaded such much with small defenders.
