Nah i don't recon.
Stevens needs time to settle in a game and playing him as an impact bench player just wouldent work.
Watts and Bock in rotations maybe but I would rather either or.

I agree. Stevo needs tome to settle and its either Watts or Bock. Since Bock has been pretty impressive in his last 2 games it might be a while before we see Watts play an AFL game.

I reckon he is close to getting one but ATM Bock deserves to keep his spot.

Thats pretty right, ATM having Watts and Bock would be 1 tall too many in the forawrd line UNLESS they decide to play Bock as a defender.

The AFC have said they would like to target a tall defender in this years draft, so they may experiment at some point with Bock.

Then you have too many tall defenders. I know Hentschel can play small and Bassett can take on a particular type of small BUT McGregor, Hentschel, Bassett and Bock would be too many talls in the backline especially since the likes of Bock and Bassett are not great at ground level.

I wonder if Bocky can develop in Stevo type player. He is having a red hot dip. His kicking needs a bit of work and his skills below his knees are not great but with a bit more muscle and a bit more development and experience he might develop into a very good key forward.

Jury is out on whether Bock would make a better forward or defender, but The club may need to make a tough decision on bassett.
We acknowledge hes not a FB, but where can he play?? BP?

Would believe Mcgregor has more credentials to play a Stevo gamestyle.
