Heres a list of the Forwards we have it includes players whose primary role is mid but are proficient forwards. Have named my senior preference first and reserves team second.
KPF Lynch, Armstrong, Faull.
KPF Lefau, Fawcett, Sims.
General Fwd. Mansell, Algar,
General Fwd. Green, Rioli, Peucker
Mid Fwd. Hotton, Lalor, Cumming, Campbell, Taranto.
Mid Fwd. Clarke, Sonsie, Ross.
I have named 10 players who can play forward in the senior section including the kpf's.
Can reduce that by one if Campbell plays on a wing which im adamant about.
Most named are still juniors. Hence i firmly believe no matter what we think of him as a player, Mansell will play as a general forward. He is sort of a good fit for the youngsters atm with his aggression at the man and toughness.
Hotton i think will play primarily as a forward with decent mid time a bit like we did with Bolton.
Algar is the most promising forward we have of the rest, he too may in time end up playing primarily as a mid or even hbf.
That leaves three primary mids Lalor, Cumming and Taranto rotating thru their and the bench with Campbell on a wing.
It only leaves the question are Green Rioli and Ross better options as general forwards or mid/fwd than those named i dont think they are.
The Talls well i think all will get exposure at some time i just went with our best Lynch and the two kids who showed the most last year.
Rather than looking for ways to play seniors im looking at ways to play the kids ie Campbell to a wing and Algar into the 23.A move like this actually addresses things that were not great last year although you could argue Campbell to a wing is like robbing peter to pay paul.
I think Algar and Hotton are highly promising forwards though and it ensures we get games into them while addressing what was a horrible centre line last year that was slow and poorly skilled.
