At this stage I rate Paddy McCartin as the best key forward. He has a decent build, is a strong contested mark and decent on the lead, and looks to have a very good footy brain. He has a strong presence and is a natural goal kicker and if he tidies up his set shot kicking he could be a focal point up forward. Hugh Goddard is a good athlete, but I am not sure if he will ever be a number one key forward and a focal point, but he definitely has the athletic and skill attributes that you look for in a tall player, I think he would make a great CHB.
Peter Wright is a huge kid and has a massive build. He will be an absolute monster, but the issue is where will he play. I think he is best as a ruckman who spends time forward and is decent round the ground. Durdin I prefer as a backman more so than a forward, but if he develops his forward game he could well be an option early on as a swingman.
