Question for all.
With Balta possibly back next week it will be much needed for us having a strong tall fwd option. Lefau has done a brilliant job so far and continues improving each week. But this has me thinking.....
When our man Lynch returns how are we going to go with Balta, Lynch, Lefau fwd? I'm wondering if we would be better off sending Balta back south to def and have Lynch, Lefau, Bolton and Dusty fwd. That is if Lefau is still having a crack.
Clearly what Yze wants will be what Yze does but was curious what everyones line of thoughts may be?
I want Balta in defense having argued for years he needs to play fwd, go figure.
Thing to remember Balta and Lefau in particular are not your typical key forwards they are quick and agile enough to play as mids maybe. This actually allows you to play a slower power player like Lynch with them.
Don't look at em as KPP'S but agile third talls.
Look at freo tonight Treacy, Amiss and Jackson. Just put dangerous smalls at their feet and bobs your uncle.
Think a young Buddy franklin or a very early Richo just total night mares to match up on and Buddy in particular let the opposition know he was about when it came to tackles.
Both early days were basically tall hff.
I remember the Hawthorn set up very well from 2013 Roughead, Franklin and Gunston with Rioli Puopolo and Bruest at their feet.
Too tall and slow nope.
