Ottens

[Wrenny]

Seriously guys he is a brilliant ruckman but i always see him hitting it down the throat of an opposition player.

A good point made today was saying that since we are dominating in teh ruck and they are dominating midfield they should knock the ball forward.

Thoughts?

yeah but who was he gunna knock it fwd 2? when they were all flooding the backline under danny's orders.

but i dont think i have ever seen ottens or any richmond ruckman since mark lee and a young david cloke who can thump it fwd 15 meters.

And the decision not to haver a specalist ruck coach only ensures his talents are further wasted.

I agree,although no one was winning the ball at ground level.
He looks like a player that has no idea what role he is meant to be playing,go forward after the bounce or drop back as loose player in defence.
Cogs and Ottens just look lost at the moment?.Maybe it,s the fact we have no game plan.
