Who plays 2nd key forward next to Charlie?
If Young is playing on Cox, when Cox is forward, TDK is in the ruck and Charlie is by himself up forward.
Playing Pitto allows TDK to play forward and give charlie a chopout.
You'd almost play both Young and Pitto as well as TDK and Charlie.
But if i was going to play just one of Young and Pitto, it'd be Pitto because that helps our forward line.
Think of it this way. If Charlie is our sole key forward, what would you do if you were Collingwood? Double/triple team him?!
Who will kick our goals otherwise??
To help drive that point home lets look at our top goal kickers for 2023.
1. Charlie - 61
2. McKay - 26 - injured
3. Owies - 17 - injured
4. Motlop - 16 - injured last week
5. Silvagni - 14 - injured
6. Durdin - 10 - injured
7. Cerra - 8 - Didn't play last week coming back from injury
8. Cottrell - 6
=9. Martin - 5 - Didn't play last week coming back from injury
=9. Cripps - 5 - Didn't play last week coming back from injury
=9. Docherty - 5
Thats our top 12 goalkickers for the year, 5 are not playing and 3 are a test.
We need TDK to play forward.
Thus, we need Pitto to play ruck.
Young vs Cox is another debate.
