The Tigers opted for only the one frontline ruckman in Ivan Soldo against the Magpies, in part because of the shortened quarters. This allowed Lynch and fellow forward Jack Riewoldt to spend some time in the ruck, a role Lynch said he had enjoyed.

"I was looking forward to it. It was good to get up the ground. Obviously, down forward you can be starved of opportunities at times and running around in the middle you can get amongst the footy," he said.

"I enjoyed it and I suppose I will have to do a little bit of it with Jack if we are not playing two ruckmen."

We got bigger problems then the ruck tho,but still I cannot understand why we went away from something that we won our flag with.

Id go both chol and the hyphen.
Soldo is too Slow and Nank a fine contributor but we need to move him on.

That's what I'm hoping to see eventually but if Nankervis hadn't have played today we would've lost by ten goals not four and a half .. :shh

I’m not sure why Balta doesn’t get some games into him.

Can pretty much play him anywhere including pinch hitting in the ruck.

I’m not sure why we don’t give him a run of five games and give him some confidence. 

We need to see him play now.

Opposition coaches are now planning how to exploit us playing only one recognised ruck and using fill-ins as 2nd ruck. Ratten today admitted they dropped Ryder for Battle due to it.

That's a coaching issue and it hasn't worked . So
 many options in that ruck role to choose to.
