After watching highlights from Folau yesterday and hearing interviews afterwards I think it is pretty obvious that with time in the forward line Izzy could quite easily become a key position player ie. a Jonathan Brown type CHF. Izzy is 6'4 and his vertical leap is quite impressive, also he is relatively quick so I feel the position would suit him well. He already has a developed body and with more practice in the position and changing of his marking style he could become one of the best in the league.
He also showed he can slot them from 40 out as well as being accurate with the kick (4 goals 1 behind). With time he will be able to slot them from 50/60 and would become a serious threat for defenses, the only thing he will probably have to work on his kicking from angles. With GWS reported to be struggling to attract big names to sign for the club regardless of money being offered I'd say it is a fairly safe bet they won't get a big forward for the 2012 season.
With Izzy contracted to GWS until the end of the 2014 season he is certainly a part of the long term plans and for a man who is only 22 years old the potential for him is massive. My point is I feel that Izzy is best suited to playing in the forward line and I feel GWS is best suited to keep him there for the time being.
