To be perfectly honest, I still have no idea. Has all the attributes to be a good forward but doesn't seem settled down there.
He has shown signs in defense but has yet to nail it down.
I'm sure as he develops it will become alot clearer. For the moment I'm happy for him develop in the forward line.
Exactly this.
With Riewoldt, Astbury, Griffiths, Post and to a lesser extent Vickery we have quite a few long term KPF options. As it stands now though, only Riewoldt is a certainty to make it (on this years form he already has "made it").
You can't have a forward line that tall, which means between those four, if they are all to be in the best 22 then atleast one of them has to go back into defence or play through the middle. Griffiths at 200cm might also pinch hit in the ruck at some stage in his career but probably only in emergancies, and I like the look of him forward. Astbury looks good as a KPF but supposedly is able to play both ends.
CHB, FB, 3rd tall defender are still not secure for the future. McGuane is probably safe as atleast one of those options and at this stage is the best defender we have. Thursfield could also play FB/ third tall, Moore probably isn't a long term option for a key post, but has been good as a second/third tall giving some rebound.
Post will probably play where we need him most, but has plenty of time as he's a big boy and will take time to fully physically develop, he's still only 19 or 20 I think.
