Did we recruit him to be a ruck for us or a tall forward?
If we want him to be a ruck I think we are better off letting him go and play for the Bullants for a while and let him continue his education in that craft. He is certainly not in out best 2 ruckmen atm. It would be stupid to play him out of position just to have him in the team.
If our long term purpose for him is as a tall forward then MAYBE we will have room for him in our starting 22. But he is competing for a spot with Edwards, Hartlett, Fisher(when fit) and resting ruckmen. I certainly do not see him as a walk up start to our BEST 22 atm. Just because is is a No 1 draft pick doesn't mean he has to play from rnd 1.
He still needs to earn his position in the team.

Kruezer is ready.
He should play straight away. Rotate thru bench and forward doing some ruck duties.

He hasn't looked out of place, and has even won some boundary throw ins against Sandilands and Brogan.
Needs to play seniors to pick up the pace of the game, which he started to do in the second half vs Hawks. Won't get this in the ants.
Won't ruck but will play forward.......and may well be groomed as a CHF depending on other rucks and forwards development.
