I'm not so sure on the whole Crozier playing back line of thinking?....I'm a big fan of him playing forward, and I think he's a natural forward. I think he gives us a bit of 'X-factor" down there....he loves to take a hang, and well, we don't have anyone else who wants to do that. I know Mikey and Ballas will have a go, but really we want them crumbing the ball don't we?? I mean, sometimes you see them flying, and you'd hope they'd stay down for the spill.
I think, over his career he was originally touted as a forward type, but was slow to develop /struggled to get involved. Seemed to get lost quite often...still does that a bit now but he's much better at getting involved.. Went down back to learn about the game, and yes, did pretty well there, and, learnt! With that experience behind him, he's a much better forward, and I think prefers it there. Loves to take a speccy, loves a goal.
Not sure Tucker is that player yet, especially overhead. Maybe, we get the best of both worlds ,where ,eventually, these 2 become quite interchangeable forward/back. Both the same size, both quite versatile, but despite last weeks 3 goals, not sure Tuckers a genuine forward just yet. Useful utility, yes, and maybe that's what they have manufactured into Crozier with his stint down back.
