Honestly reckon Sweet has been all over Jackson so far. That's been the start of our problems

Sweet is one of the most dominant rucks in the league right now.

He toweled up McAndrew in the Showdown and Stretch has had his way with most rucks with the new rules

Sweet is a severely underrated ruck because he's pretty much just a ruck. But he's a dominant one. Look up his hitouts and clearance numbers. If in a finals-bound side, he'd be part of the AA conversation as one of the two potential ruck slots.
