We do not need to recruit a ruck
Our brilliant list management team have mcbean and chol as our rucks, trouble is our development team has not been told about it and our selectors dont even know they are on our playing list.
As to their potential ruck ability they must be good or else our list managent team wouldn't have selected them :lol :lol :lol

At some point in time, the thinking from the powers that be within the club deviated from reality in believing our ruck stocks will ship shape. Or maybe they never understood what it takes.

Seriously, there has to be a lot of people within the club that are either stupid, arrogant, clueless or don't GAF. There is no other explanation.

Either way, the fact that thelse sorts of traits were welcomed into (and then retained) within an elite professional environment is a disgrace

i have asked myself this many times but they have to be all of the above. There is no other explanation for it.

You'd think that our assistant coach Lade (best mate to the senior coach) would know what to look for in a quality ruckman.

He's either;

- stupid, dopey former premiership ruckman.

- has no clue what he's doing but is deeply greatful to his best mate Damien & the RFC for giving him a cushy highly paid full time job that has no accountability or expectations.

- he assumed that Blair & Francis were actually doing their jobs and was as surprised as the rest of us that we still don't have any decent rucks to work with.

- he didn't know there was a recruiting department at Richmond and he thought Blair was from the newly formed *Rainbow-Union-of-Dedicated-Ethusiasts (RUDE) that like to watch the players get changed after working up a sweat & he thought Francis was just a former player that just couldnt let go.

*formerly DUDE (Dedicated-Union-of-Dick-Enthusiasts)

Mason Cox in 1st afl game looked better than anything we have that resembles a ruckman.
