Looking at the Swans last night and the quality of their key forwards
Amartey. Very ordinary footballer
McLean. Strong but bog average key forward
McDonald. Competent, but realistically B Grade at best
We match that level of key forward talent.

If we had a quality midfield.....just two players extra of really quality, we could seriously challenge

How many defenders will The Saints pick in the 2024 draft ?

Re: You don't need star key forwards to be grand finalists
With the dominance of Brisbanes defense a gun key forward may have helped.
