Moore, Frampton, Dean and Eyre are on the list. Kreuger will be for a little bit. Howe plays tall as well. We've done well out of our undersized FF in Checkers.

They certainly haven't spent up big but they have had a bit of a crack. You could make an argument that not enough has been done to get top quality talent - god knows I have. But it is hard to do when we keep trading first rounders away for more midfielders and flankers. The issue isn't that we ignore KPs altogether, it's that we don't seem to prioritise them at all and don't position ourselves to get them.

Until we can fix the talls issue effectively, we have to keep casting the net far and wide for them. If we're always in the shallow end of the draft pool, then that's gonna take a lot of casting, or we wind up with NQRs and undersized KPPs.

On the bright side, we may have access to some tall NGA talent in the next 2 years and some of our up and coming F/S's have a bit of height about them. Rogan's kid might be as stringy as his dad but both Rocca's have their lads in the academy now. IIRC, Abba's boy might be more KP than his dad too, but I might be misremembering that.
