Geelong coach Chris Scott has admitted the Cats forward set up is still a work in progress.

Speaking on Fox Sports On the Couch, Scott said that he still hasn’t settled on how the forward line will look at the business end of the season.

“We’re not set on what our forward structure will look like in a couple of months,” Scott said.

Some have questioned the Cats premiership credentials given the team lacks a traditional dominant key forward, but Scott did not see that as an issue.

“I don’t think Geelong has ever relied heavily on one or two key forwards to kick the bulk of the goals,” he said.

“The way we play doesn’t make it easy for our tall forwards but I think it is a sustainable game style.” James Podsiadly, Cameron Mooney, Tom Hawkins, Brad Ottens and youngster Nathan Vardy have all played as tall forwards so far in 2011, with Podsiadly the leading goal kicker from the group with 14.

While Hawkins has come in for some criticism, Scott maintains he will be a key player for the club in the long term.

“We would like Tom Hawkins to play better, but we have a lot of faith in him in the long term and we will continue to support him.”

Over the past five seasons as an elite team, Mooney’s 67 goals in 2007 are the most be any of the club’s big forwards. Podsiadly booted 49 in 2010 to lead the key forwards, with Steve Johnson heading the goal kicking with 63.
