Get him and Harry working together, thats development....the goalkicking needs to be Mckay and Kerr leading the way, not Casboult and Wright....
Kerr is the closest player we have had in terms of giving us what Fev gave us on the field.....
Yes, I can see this will be the case long term, I think we will eventually have Charlie doing a role like Lynch does for the Crows.
Players must be played in a way that makes use of their natural strengths, not in roles that they are 50% good at! We seem over obsessed with turning everybody into a utility!
The problem Levi has is that he's not feared, so blokes will just push him around and use him as a step ladder when conditions present. For a 200cm x 100kg player he's a gentle giant!
They won't do that to Kerr in the long run.
McKay has a bit of nastiness about him, but I suspect he'll have to be a victim for a while until he gets fed up with being bullied, and then it'll be on like Donkey Kong!
The thing with Kerr, even when he's not getting stuff his own way he's doing the right things to bring team-mates into the game. For example he'll draw defenders leaving team-mates one on one instead of dragging them to the contest.

We'll have ruptured kidney's and lungs along with spinal injuries and more breaks to rips before too long (owing to the strength and speed of players today impacts to the back are more dangerous than in years gone by).
Levi should be the one putting the fear of god into defenders that chop into his space, not the victim, he runs around players instead of through them!
