DJC...it's hard to get a handle on where he sits at the moment in regards to a position. First choice forwards at the minute will be McKay, Charlie and McGovern with McKay pinch hitting in the ruck for either Kreuzer or Phillips. I can't see them taking a punt on him playing permanently in defence but it could be horses for courses if we're up against a team with 3 big forwards or a ruckman that goes forward and kicks goals...we only have Jones and Weitering at the moment and Goddard for depth I'm assuming....any reports on Goddard from the VFL if he's been playing?
I think Meat's role will be back-up ruckman, if there is a vacancy.
Goddard did OK according to the coach:
Hugh Goddard
Stats: 14 disposals, seven marks (four contested)
From the coach: Hugh was really solid in defence, and set us up back there with his leadership and his voice. He was quite strong in the air with a few intercept marks, and his reaction time as a big defender was encouraging. It was a strong game from him.
