Do you like Cox Sauce in the ruck?

[mezzoculo]

Having had McEvoy and Mummy rotate through my R2 spot for the last few weeks, I'm now looking at Sammy Jacobs.
Only problem is that Cox, Jacobs and Giles (current R3) all share the Round 11 bye, leaving the not so Big-O to battle it out alone.
Not good.

To combat this, I am considering starting Rowe as my ninth forward and - all thing being equal - bringing him into the rucks for Round 11. To make the space, I'll trade out uber-cashcow Giles and bring in a forward rookie.

What are people's thoughts? Obviously, it all hinges on Rowe actually playing in Round 11.

Do you really need to have sauce ....

This year, probably not.
Pity too, as it will be this year that he joins the top five DT scoring rucks (due to a combination of form, sole ruckman and great draw). IMO, he'll be fighting it out with Mummy and McEvoy.

Exactly!
As I said, if I had faith that Rowe will be a regular in Carlton's forward line (there's already Waite, Hampson, Kreuzer and possibly T-bird) then I would start him as a forward bench and trade him across in Round 11. Unlikely though.
