From memory Silvagni started a full forward too.
That's where the recruting and development should play a part; we should be able to assess what role a player is best suited to and work his butt off until he can play that role well. Of course, in the Hawthorn model, every player has to know and be able to play the role of any other player.
Silvagni was a ruck rover. Unless you mean SOS; I have a feeling that he played wing and/or halfback. The speccy he took when he did his knee was at halfback if I remember correctly :-\
