Meek played 3 games this season in place of Lobb, partnering Darcy in the ruck. The loss vs the Saints, win vs Brisbane and win vs GWS. In those 3 games, they combined for 2 goals up forward and a total of 15 marks, far from a winning combination.
Just watching those games, it was clear the strategy wasn't working particularly well and that Meek was far from a natural forward. He wasn't horrible but you'd expect more from a 24yo tall forward. Meek is a ruckman though and it shouldn't be his job to kick 40 goals a season. Problem is, Darcy is the same age and a far better ruckman so Meek will only get games if Darcy is out or we're incredibly desperate forward.
