Be loathe to drop him for Howard when he becomes available

I think the big revelation that not as many have pointed out, is that he has played really well as a defender, his natural position.
I was only unhappy having him play as a makeshift forward. He is now doing the role we recruited him for. Key defender cover. He is doing it great

Is it a coincidence that the backline looks more complete without Howard .

No, but our backline looks more complete when our midfield and forwards are winning contested balls and piling on pressure.

Cordy is doing what he was recruited to do

The reason he has not played as a defender prior to the last couple of weeks is because Howard has been available

Which tells us what the pecking order is

Cordy played forward to lend some experience and size to a very young forward line - a forward line missing Membrey, King and Hayes

Try Dougal in the ruck. He has a touch of the Crackers Keenan about him.

Can you have Cordy and Howard in the same team?

What does that free Wilkie up to do?

Played forward out of necessity- and was pretty average

Looked a lot better in defence

Can he and Doug play together in the back half - no
He is not better than Battle and Wilkie

It will be interesting to see who Ross goes with when Dougal is available.

If he doesn’t take Cordy’s spot I really don’t see a place for him in the team.

Zanie is doing well because like a good man….

Looks better than Howard at this point...

Why should Howard play!
He can't defend so he's next to useless. Cordy is so much better.

Cordy also has that bit of mongrel that we are missing.

Harsh. He's a very good defender. Limitations are when he's in possession in decision making and execution of disposal.

I think Howard gets pushed a side too easily whereas Cordy, from the limited sample size I've seen, doesn't seem to.

The Hawks are circling for a KPD.

What do you take from them in return for Howard? Their current draft picks are 3, 29, 48.

Pick 48 will do.

Is there someone they could split pick 3 with, and give a lower first rounder to us?
