I actually agree with you completely on this and I’d argue it’s the strongest reason to keep Camma.I’ll argue with anyone on this board about how we have pretty much failed Max since we drafted him.
He was plonked in the forward 50 with absolutely no support, he’s been our lone key fwd since the day he was drafted. Membrey isn’t a key forward, we could have honestly done with a Ben Brown who was available and credit to Melbourne for filling that hole.
Six years later and we still haven’t addressed our lack of key forward experience, we seriously need to target some assistance there as much as we do sorting out our midfield issues.
It’s Max or bust almost. That’s not fair on him.
We win, it’s all ok, we lose, Max needs to be better.
Oscar Allen had the luxury of coming through the ranks with Kennedy and Darling. Naughton and JUH have each other as a chop out, then they can rotate Darcy/English/Lobb through to stretch defences as they did last night.
Hawkins/Cameron, Hipwood/Daniher, Curnow/Mckay, Hogan/Cadman, Walker/Fogarty, Dixon/Marshall.
Laugh at Casboult all you like but I reckon Ben King would have loved him taking one of the tall defenders.
Max has been on his lonesome since he started here, double if not triple teamed. Get his ******* brother through that door or let’s just have this same conversation for the next 5 seasons.
