If like most teams these days you play 2 inside forwards, sometimes three.
And by SOD averages they scored 2.5 scores each per game, on average, thats 6 or 7 scores from your inside line, per game.
That would win you the square root of zero hurling matches. You wouldnt even beat a Christy Ring cup team.
If you have an inside forward scoring only 2.5 points a game, then, he is a passenger. Other players are having to shoulder the burden of racking up the scores, effectively carrying that forward.
Any effective, good inside forward, you want a minimum average of 4 or 5 points a game (via goals, or points, doesnt matter once they are racking up the scores).
AND winning frees, assisting other scores is also a given requirement playing inside forward, not a bonus.
