I'm pretty confident Sam Reid just won't work in the ruck. Reckon you'll have to bring in Fitzy or someone next week
Goldstein smashed it in the ruck ftr, won 27 and lost 15. McIntosh/Daw split theirs pretty evenly and Reid was beaten 7-14 or something. Was a considerable swing in the play when Reid played ruck.
for some reason in fffx the 'home team' always has a spread of hitouts and the away team only gets the bloke in the ruck getting them. I've come to the conclusion (as it doesn't add up any other way, Goldy and Reid lost like 24 taps between them it explicitly says in the summary I've got here) that those hitouts that aren't credited to the 1st or 2nd rucks are more just bugs. I don't actually think they contested the ruck at all; if it was it was as a third man and for some reason it didn't record the other teams ruck as losing the tap.
CPL MVP: 5 - Jay Schulz: 8.1 from 22 touches and 13 marks 4 - Clint Jones: Shadowed Swallow all day and only let him get 11 touches 3 - Eric MacKenzie: Smashed Black. 2 - Sam Mitchell: Was very good all day 1 - Mark LeCras: Took advantage of a mismatch and dominated the half forward area all day.
aaaaaaaand Duffield was injured Harps. No excuse for this one as your name was next to. Oh, and so was Davis. You've already been warned for it too.
