Our Ruck Division

[The Shev]

We have one of the best ruck divisions in the league. So how can we utilise it better?

We have 3 good ruckmen in White, Jolly and Jamar.

I'd like to see White play more up forward, and I'd also like to see Jamar get more game time.

Any thoughts on how we could fit them all into our team?

We can't I reckon. Even if Jolly or White were used a permanent forwards, the other would be in the ruck. There'd be no need to bring a Jamar off the bench, as White & Jolly could be swapped if either needs a rest.

I reckon Jamar has a fair way to go yet, to really threaten the big two.

Fully fit, White is the best we've got both Jolly and Jamar still have a bit to go. Maybe White can rest in the forward line rather than on the bench.

This year will tell us how good each of them are.

Jolly will have to have another good season.

White must find his form, and possibly some goals.

Jamar must step up to the plate.

Personally, I think Jolly is the most important of the three.

I like the idea of White resting in a forward pocket. He adds a different style to our forward line, especially if Robbo plays on a flank.

As far as the other 2 are concerned, Jolly had a huge set back during the last preseason when he came down with pnuemonia and had to be hospitalised. A full preseason should see him hit the ground running.

Jamar, we need to remember, is only 19 or 20. This kid may take a few years to fully develop. He's almost 200 cms and 100 kgs so you would have to think it may take some time. I reckon his time will come in 2005.
