An enthusiastic Gary Dempsey is very happy with our rucks.

Story from the CFC website.

Great news!! Our ruck division has been a weak point
4 a number of years.
With a new young fresh looking midfield coming on well (according to reports) we may be on track for some better centre clearance
rates thus both our forward and backline should improve accordingly.
GEE THIS GAME IS SO SIMPLE!!!!!!

I can only hope it is true. In the past couple of seasons we have won only once or twice when French was not available. If our youngsters can hold their own, it will help French play longer as well.
We really need our young rucks to step up.

All this hope in the preseason!!! I read all this positive news and it just starts my motor up...I do a couple of laps of my flat and throw my little sherrin at my BF.

As long as we are steadily on the up.

..don't everybody start doin' cartwheels.. ..Barney's been doin' an ace job, and he's gonna get some good support from mcClaren (hopefully).. ..but i don't put too much stock in Deluca as a rucker, and i'd rather Bryan be running forward with that monster kick of his.. ..but if mcClaren can provide some solid support to Barney then we'll be ok.. ..but our midfield and backline's still under-done i think..
