Don't like that idea. Walker has been sensational down back. We don't want to mess a good thing up. We have been getting over 100points every time we win so it's not like we are lacking in the forward scoring. What we don't want to do is move him up forward, then he could lose his confidence, move him back to defence then he is out of form in the backline. Would rather Andrews go forward if that is the case or debut Wooler. Even though he isn't a key forward but we do have 2 of them in McStay and Big O.With Andrews returning, Fagan should consider playing McStay back and moving Walker forward. Josh Walker been amazing this year and is in career best form. Currently averaging 7.9 marks a game and ranked 7th in the league, only five marks behind Michael Hurley. Given that many of his marks are also contested he has been dominating opponents in the air. I would love to see him as a target in the forward line. Remember Fagan flirted with Andrews up forward in the pre-season on the strength of his marking. Based on form in the marking department Walker is a better option.
If Hipwood is suspended, which I very much doubt, then I would include Andrews up back, move McStay into defence and tell him to spoil everything and go with Walker and Keays up forward.
