I think we agree more often than we disagree - but I'm more than happy to debate that

In a way, it's a dopey article, but this is what I want from our small forwards - what small forwards I hear you ask...............

305 tackles and 125 goals between Rioli, Puopolo and Breust this season :o
I'd take that from any three of our players, let alone three small forwards. In fact, I'd be satisfied if four of our blokes could rack up those numbers between them.

Yes, they're pretty decent numbers, that's for sure.

This hits the nail on the head.
I never thought I'd say that Jones is a better option than anyone but he's better than Levi, at least he can change direction and has a bit of pace.
But really we'd be better off ditching both of them and playing a smaller front 6 like Footscray did when they didn't have a key forward, it won't win flags but it will win more games than we do now.
Footscray still haven't got what you'd call a power forward but they're in the Grannie this weekend all the same.
I'd run with Charlie Curnow and Silvagni and hope that McKay comes through, let them grow into the job together.

I'd recruit Patrick Kerr and get a player who can lead for the ball properly and kick straight.....
Charlie Curnow is too valuable around the ground IMO to leave as a permanent forward.....could be Kouta version II and we need more players who can run on the ball and get the thing forward....
Casboult, Jones etc cant kick so its a waste of time making them KP forwards......

Yep, it's a pity we can't have a GF&S rule for Patty.
