Jack Darling 2012/13 is what I'd hope for in 2017. 53 goals in the absence of Kennedy then back to 42 the following year. Consistently getting 40ish goals is good, but that's really his level whether a 1st, 2nd, 3rd or otherwise forward.
2 x 4, 1 x 3, 10 x 2, 1 x 1, 2 x 0 goals this year. Been 47 games since a bag of 5, which he's done 6 times in 144 games.
Kennedy went out for 5 games and Darling went 0, 2, 0, 3, 4. You'd love to see him stand up and say 'I'm the man, now' and kick a big bag but he just doesn't. Unfortunately in terms of impact he's more Josh Hill than Josh Kennedy.
