indeed......but I would like only 2 tall forwards and a bit less tagging..and I like the idea of Gram on a wing, but that may have to wait till Goose comes back.

IMO its not a question whether we should have 2 â€“ 3 talls forward. It is more a question whether we should have smalls supporting the 2 -3 talls forward. Currently it rarely happens because the smalls are all up field.

3 tall forwards can work... if the bloody delivery is anything above scheiznehaus.

Gram to a wing is something that I've been harping in about for ages. He's a shocking defender.

Great post Barks... you're spot on.

Play:
* one less big forward
*one less tagger
*two more mids

*plus Charlie for Raph.

B: Ferguson Hughton Geary
HB: SFisher Koschitzke Dal Santo
C: Gram Hayes Montagna
HF: Gilbert Goddard CGardiner
F: Schneider Reiwoldt Milne
Foll: MGardiner Ball Armitage

Int: Harvey King XClarke LFisher

3 strong tall lead-up forwards to send it in to Reiwoldt who will be given all of the forward 50. Milne as the alternate target/crumber.

Now this is a team i'd like to see selected,it may go all right,it may not but
it wouldn't hurt to mix it up this much.....

Whilst Kosi won rising star as CHB.....I now longer think he has the mobility or burst speed to counter a number of CHF

would be turned inside out and lacks change of direction speed

Injuries/added natural bulk with age .......now suited as a key forward
or ruckman......

forward line has first call so can gain a break.....

bacline reacting so closing speed so important.

I think that Kosi could only play in defence on selected players....no one too quick or nimble.

How many good key forwards in this era lack change of direction speed?

I hope people dont keep going on about delivery to our forwards.. its up to the forwards to do some bloody work and get the ball -their opponents seem to be able to do this in a one-on-one contest.

Kosi doesn't have the agility to play CHB.

The more agile forwards like Pavlich would teach him a bit of a lesson, particularly at ground level.

what about gehrig to the backline,
he always stuggles against scarlette.
and that leaves the two twin towers up foward.
he played backline when he first came to the saints,
and in the record against the blues in an interveiw he said he enjoyed it.
