The problem is Sturt is pretty much the only player on our list who hasn't looked horrible, and in fact he looked bloody amazing, in that half forward role. He's only 3 games in, I wouldn't mess with that. We need speed in our forward line most of all imo.
Similarly with Young. He's probably the key to unlocking us being more attacking from half back. He's only 5 games in and looked good there. Again, I wouldn't risk screwing up his development curve.
JL has been pretty clear he wants players to play the role they are most comfortable in. Especially for youngsters, let them settle into one role first.
I think the wing is a much harder role than it is perceived as. You're expected to run all day both ways and then hit forwards on the tit at full tilt every time you deliver i50. I know people are obsessed with speed but all the best wingers have shown it is far more about endurance and making good decisions with ball in hand. I wouldn't over react to what we saw in just one game (against the Dogs) - I thought their wingers ran harder, not necessarily faster (as the stats backup - Acres had the highest distance at speed on the ground but the Dogs had the top 5 distance runners).
Having said all that I am all for drafting a good outside player (preferably with good speed and skills on top of endurance base) with our first pick. Western and Walker both inject a lot of speed but they are unlikely to have the endurance to play wing at AFL level yet. Speed at half back and half forward helps the outside ball movement plenty as well. For 2021, I'd back in Acres, Aish, Cerra and Tucker rotating on the wing - they need to provide a better defensive work rate than yesterday though. I'm on the fence with Bewley - I'd persist another year. Freddy seems a natural winger so I'd expect they might look at him in the mix as well next year (he runs a heap, and at speed but looks lost at half forward).
Western has a huge tank. But he isn’t tall enough as a modern day wingman.
