Veteran Pie Eyes ‘Real Opportunity’ in Ruck Move
A seasoned Collingwood player is gearing up for a potential career shift, spotting a “real opportunity” in a switch to the ruck.
The veteran, whose experience and leadership have been invaluable to the Pies, is keen to take on the challenge in a bid to strengthen the club’s midfield presence. With Collingwood always looking for an edge in the contest, this move could be a game-changer.
“I reckon there’s a real opportunity there,” the player said. “It’s a role that’s evolved a lot, and I think I can add something different to it.”
Collingwood’s coaching staff have been working closely with him, refining his ruck craft and positioning. While the transition won’t be without its challenges, his physicality and footy smarts could make him a key asset in stoppages.
The Magpies have built a reputation for adaptability, and this move underscores their commitment to keeping a dynamic and unpredictable game plan. Fans will be eager to see how this switch plays out in the upcoming rounds.
Could this be the fresh spark the Pies need in their bid for another crack at the flag? Time will tell, but one thing’s for sure—Collingwood isn’t afraid to shake things up.
