Matthew Leuenberger as ruck bench

[PowerBug]

So with the disaster that is Tom Bellchambers, I was thinking of rolling him out of my side and running without ruck cover through the byes (not that it matters then). But after that a R3 would be required, and I look at Matthew Leuenberger who sits under $300k, and has a huge BE now because his scoring is down. But does it look like he is cemented in the best 22 as a fwd? Could he be a good bench cover incase one of the premo rucks miss a week? I think if you have Stefan Martin then he is a great choice, but many don't and roll with something like Goldstein and Naitanui. Is he worth it in this case?

Waste of a trade, he and Bellchambers will give you similar output

His scoring has been shocking so wouldn't give him a look.
If you wanted short term cover, Keegan Brooksby has been getting games and is at least rookie priced. Otherwise Kreuzer, who is just as injury prone as Leuenberger will at least get a decent go in the ruck.

I have Bellchambers as well, and will just wait until Ryder comes back, then look to bring him in. Until then Bellchambers can warm the bench, although based on what happened last night I can't see how he gets a game next week assuming Giles is fit.

bellchambers very likely to be dropped this week id think

Bellchambers to Brooksby or Wright would be better I think. GCS will want to get games into them (especially Wright as a high pick) and they will provide similar output. As it is you might lean towards keeping TBC because he's not worth much at the moment
