The best we've played all year is when we've been looking beyond Fev to other options. The whole secret to beating Carltobn used to be blocking off Fevola for an easy rebound. We strethc teams' defences now.
I am happy to see Fev stay FF and play foil to our other marking forwards. Fev will still have his big days and his quiet days but his work off the ball is very handy for us when he does it.
Keep him at FF but with a contested marking option like Fisher, Bryan, Deluca, Setanta or whoever close to the goalsquare.
but thats my point... if he leads further up the ground, that keeps the opposition guessing.... because he can also drop back closer to goals.
LIKE BARRY HALL........ but, does he have the motor for it?
I mean, you don't see Hall taking hangers... you just need to work hard and keep leading. When Fev's switched on he does that anyway.
Next year we need to rotate players around in the forward line. Would like to see Fevola played in other positions. Setanta and Deluca might also be options in the pocket and CHF at times. Bryan will also be an option.
We are really lacking key defenders now. Not sure if Fisher, Waite or someone else can be turned in a tall defender. Need to target someone in the draft. The midfield which looked the problem is showing much better signs but our defence is till a huge problem.
I think we need to get a Spangher, Lucy or Mills with our second and third round picks if available.
