If we lose both Baker and Edwards down back we lose that player who can run through a pack, cleanly grab a ball and deal it off with ease.He’s played a variety of different roles since arriving and I reckon arrived as a small forward.
You’d think if he played as a small forward now he’d be better at it than he was 18-24 months ago as a result of being in the system and improved endurance.
Reckon he’s worth a look at in that position is very good by foot and reads the play so well
Also our other small forwards are absolutely stinking it up can’t just continue with blind faith assuming they’ll eventually turn the corner
Baker plays a damn important role in contested defence and people don't see it as much as they should.
