    Re: Round 10 Team

    Could Gilbee stay as a permanent forward, leave him there and let him get used to the role.
    If he can get enough of the ball he could become dangerous at either kicking for goal or passing to others.

    Or is this another Gia and two in the forward line is too much.

      I think he struggles outside of the forward role so I am with you. Sadly, I also think your two too many concerns are also correct.

      Our forward lines crap at the moment. I would love to see us give more defensive forward/hard working types a role there. For a long time I have wanted to see Picken there.

        Possibly because they are also poor performers. Just seems when we have a bad game it is always a kid that gets dropped. Even though others have played worse and played poorly for a longer time.

          That isn't kicking efficiency, it's the Hit Rate which incorporates degree of difficulty and other such nonsense.

            With the way Dahlhaus and DJ played yesterday, this should be an easy fix.

              Add in Higgins and we have 3 small forwards who while having good footy skills aren't known for their defensive attributes which is an area in which we are lacking.
