Hurley hasn't played forward since the start of last year.

I think you should've added Rioli to Hawthorn's.

Are you only allowing for 4 forwards?

That's usually the only forwards a team has playing. The rest are resting ruckman/midfielders.

Given that Ambrose has played 18 games, all as a forward, since the start of last year I'd say him.

I was going to put him but thought Hurley was a better forward.

I think it varies between teams to be honest.

It's irrelevant. Hurley plays defence now, and is a bloody good one too. If you don't think Ambrose, choose Cooney or Zach Merrett instead.

Jenkins kicked 40 goals last year and you dont even have him in the Adelaide forward line.

I'm not sure about who has the best but we can probably all agree that Brisbane has the worst right now

Nah, Carlton takes home the medal for that IMO. They got 2 guys that are terrible kicks as their 2 KPF. then they got no-one at ground level.I'm not sure about who has the best but we can probably all agree that Brisbane has the worst right now

It's pretty tight I guess but with the result on the weekend maybe I'd tilt towards your opinion

Daniel McStay will be a decent key forward in 2-3 years time in my opinion. I rate him highly.
Josh Green has shown he's got some potential as well but right now just lacks that consistency in his game.
Michael Close showed some promise late last year and looks a likely type.
Jonathan Freeman also has potential but like Close he's still raw and inexperienced and is also injured.
The Lions forward-line might not be good yet, but let's not forget that it's still very young. In about 3-4 years time when players like McStay, Close, Freeman and Paparone have all played around 50-100 games that's when the Lions forward will be very good.

McStay is a better defender than forward IMO. New Michael Hurley.

There is potential there in maybe a few years, but I do agree that McStay might be a better back than forward. Same with Andrews

GWS have the best forward line in the comp.
Hawthorn then daylight.
Why is Essendon's forward line in this poll?
Clearly bottom 4 for mind.
