True, both Kreuzer and Hampson have some ability forward. Kreuzer with the right coaching I think could be very dangerous as a forward, needs to be taught where to run, and played more at CHF rather than out of the goal square. Also needs to learn to take marks over his head with his arms forward, not directly above his head. Looks to my very untrained eye that it's a remnant of junior footy, where he was tall enough to just stick his hands straight up and mark it overhead. Can't do that in the AFL, too easy to get a punch in from behind.
The issue with Warnock is that he's shown no signs of being able to be dangerous forward, or even around the ground for that matter.
This in spades. It also renders him susceptible to a soft nudge with the hip and he's under the footy by an inch or two. Opposition backs do it to him all the time. When he runs at it and takes the footy in front of his face (which he very occasionally has done) he is actually a strong mark.
