Which of those players will be an automatic starting forward pocket next season?
That line of thinking is flawed. Not only is it a fact that Harvey is a better forward then the two you mention but he is also a much better midfielder.
If Butler retires then Nelson is an automatic replacement. Partington is in direct competition with the midfield group and on the basis of this season where he has not played any senior games it is fair to assume he may not be ready next season also.
It is about list quality and thus competition breeds success.
