Team Mgmt. 2025 Forward Line

[Call Me Cake]

Perkins and Cox are busts. Reid a slight chance. The sooner we move on from the 2020 cohort the better.

Why is Archie Perkins a bust?

elaborate with common sense and evidence and we can pick holes in the rose coloured distorted view you have of him.

I think I'm the only person in Australia who thinks we should have Wright at FF, May at CHF and Caddy roaming freely between the f50 arc and half-way. Does anyone remember his work up field in the Brisbane game? Combine his field kicking, which is a serious weapon, with his marking ability up the ground. Let May and Wright play the tall forwards.

My model has that option. Caddy can’t be restricted to relying on our midfield to get it down there. Let him roam for the rest of his career. Cameron like

Yeah he’s a pretty prototypical 3rd tall. Issue is so is Langford but they both deserve to play so gonna have some square peg round hole stuff to work out.

My 2c:

Reid: If he can stay injury free has the capacity to be our best defender since Fletcher. We saw it last year, albeit briefly.

Cox: He is running out of time. Still no concrete position. Positive training progression but I worry about game day readiness. I would honestly rotate him out of the goalsquare with 2MP. Looked dangerous kicking 3 against GC there. Unfortunately 1 concussion from retirement IMO.

Perkins: Probably last chance to prove himself next season with us or needs to look elsewhere. Has the tools but second guesses himself all the time. Loses confidence easily. Will be interesting to see how he goes under McGrath. Needs the mental shackles released.
