What has playing in the ruck in the VFL got to do with being a KPD?
McGovern is not a key defender. The way our defence is structured means that he will occasionally stand an opposition KPF ... but so does Saad, Boyd and Newman. McGovern plays a similar role to Tom Stewart, an intercept defender, and usually picks up a medium forward. McGovern played on Darcy Gardiner, Cam Rayner, Josh Dunkley, etc against Brisbane and not on Daniher and Hipwood. He played on Martin against Richmond, not Lynch or Balta.
