It's important to look at the group as a collective and when you look at each player you can certainly find reasons why they won't make it.
Roughead and Franklin formed the Hawks key forward combo, but the original answer to who would kick their goals was Dowler, Thorp, Roughead and Franklin.
While some of them won't reach the expectations we set I think they will turn out ok. As a collective group.
I don't understand why McKay as a left footer cant improve his kicking? In two parts he can improve his accuracy by simply marking closer to goal with deeper inside 50's from the midfield and 2nd he always looks spent, sucking in deep breaths so improved endurance would also help with his set shot routine.
McGovern is an accurate kick, but given what he has offered so far he may not be with us long term.
As for Harry, have a look at his run up with a set shot. It's all so casual and he is swinging the ball left to right and depending where it is on the drop is the direction it goes. Against Collingwood and again last night he had deliberate shots for goal from deep inside the right forward pocket, favouring his left foot.
He went with kicking across his body and both kicks went straight across the ground from where he was kicking, landing in the opposite pocket. In recent weeks from the same position another shot went out of bounds.
Maybe Newnes can show him how simple a run up can be.
