Ruck Issues - Round 10

Headaches in the Ruck for SuperCoaches this week. Sandilands out for 4 weeks with a toe injury. Mumford a late withdrawal, listed as a knee injury.

Trade out or cover with cheaper players? Both Sandilands & Mumford have been too good this year  to trade. Cover with Zac Smith ($293k, exp rise of $34k this week), or Cam Wood ($279k) if already on your bench.

Max Bailey ($110k), Nathan Vardy ($110k) or Andrew Browne ($161k) look a dud trade, but may be necessary if both primary ruckmen are injured. All have played just 1 game for minor scores.
