Kyle Langford is leading Essendon's goalkicking with Jake Stringer not far behind, playing a third tall forward role and exploiting matchups. It is not common for the full forward and centre half forward to not be even close to leading a team's attack, and today Nate Caddy comes in to replace Todd Goldstein to add further height in the Bomber front six. The classic knock against such structures is that you need a balance of smaller crumbers lest the opposition half backs have a field day on the rebound. Langford might have to concentrate more on ground pressure than leading today.
