Imo, WCE forward line >>> Cats' forward lineForward lines are similar
Can't forget that last year Kennedy was the best forward in the comp, kicking 80 goals. Add in Darling, Lecras, Cripps and Hill, and you have close to the best forward line in the league.
Nic Nat has been in ripping form so far his season, and he is one of the best ruckmen in the game. Lycett has also been more than servicable.Ruck duels are similar
On our end, we have Smith and Stanley, who have been good, but definitely not up to nic nat/Lycett standard. Smith's best work has been done around the ground, however in the ruck, he's been average. In many of our games this year, we've had fewer hitouts that our opponent. In fact Smith averages just 15 hitouts a game and Stanley averages 18. Both of their numbers COMBINED doesnt beat Naitanui's average of 36.
