You're not giving the problem full consideration.
Given Ed was already a slower flanker, how many more slow flankers can we carry? Would you prefer we move someone with pace to a flank like Fisher, who also happens to be our 2nd best inside ball winner at the moment!
I accept you want Kennedy in, but the re-shuffle is not trivial given we are already top heavy with five relatively slow talls playing, in and around a relatively slow midfield which has Kreuzer and Cripps?
Don't just tell us what you want, tell us how you will make it work?
Well indeed, heard of a word called rotation LP?
Winning the ball - you know, getting your hands on it is far more important than whether you run the 20m in 2.9 or 3.2 seconds (I note Kennedy did it in 3.13 at the Combine back when - you call that slow! :
)lob seldom touches the ball nor even gets close to the ball 98% of the game....yet gets picked!
Balance you say? Kennedy plays inside and outside. LOB does neither presently.
Finals, then 4 in a row!
