Given the uncertainty surrounding Coxy, do I place Lobbe as emergency cover in the rucks?

Obviously this would mean that either my def, mids, or forwards would go without E cover...

Is Coxy safe ? If not, than what line do I gamble on and have no emergency cover?

Pendlebury late withdrawel (i'll be at work before final teams) and Sylvia are also concerning.

I have the same issue and have settled on the backs, as I have not heard any rumors about the key back premiums (Gibbs, Goddard, Enright (a usual suspect who has just had his week off), Heppell, Suckling, Broughton, Fisher, Adockc etc). 

There is always the risk of a smokey late withdrawal to get you, but given the reported issues with the ruckman (and some mids and forwards as you mentioned) I think it is a calculated gamble to avoid a catastrophic result.

Yeah I've got Lobbe as cover. I have an emergency in all except DEF. I think I should be pretty sweet there.
