The mandated role is small forward = if you haven't got the ball, apply pressure. Don't stand there.....do something!
If he won't do it, then piss off the bludger.
Prof...We need to kick more goals to win games and he was free thats why we got him......Polson is probably the more logical small pressure forward type with Pickett injured(did I say that?
)Fasalo is a marking target mainly who can also crumb/snap the odd goal but its his leading/marking ability that have been his trademark.
I dont think he was recruited as a pressure forward at all and like I said he played FF at Collingwood and at no stage has he played as the small pressure forward role.
Probably why Puopolo has been so good is that he started as a backpocket in the SANFL and brought those defensive aspects with him but learned the forward role on the fly
and can provide both the pressure defensive acts as well as being a very strong mark for his inches when playing forward and reads the play so well.
