This would allow Charlie to use his mobility to advantage in one-on-one contests instead of having him trying to contest pack marks. With his kicking range, he could still be a goal-kicker by floating into the 50 rather than being stationed there.
Agree with this
In relation to this weeks side, I’d be giving O’Brien, Setterfield and Owies a rest for Dow, Kemp and Motlop.
OBrien runs well and always seems to get to the right spot but struggles to hold body position and is prone errant disposal until little to no pressure - he’s a battler at AFL level and either of Dow or Kemp would be far more effective
Owies is paid to lock the ball in our F50 and kick goals and he couldn’t deliver the latter. You don’t get many chances as a small forward and you need to take them and from the little I’ve seen of Motlop he can bring the pressure, can finish and has a bag of tricks. He’s a beauty.
I’d be looking to get Kemp in the side pronto and whilst Setterfield wasn’t disgraced he still lacks the intensity that we need.
