A lack of scoring power is Geelongโ€™s biggest problem according to Garry Lyon.

The Melbourne legend believes the Catsโ€™ off-season hasnโ€™t helped matters.

Geelong lost Daniel Menzel to Sydney, and failed to replace him with a ready-made, out-and-out forward.

โ€œMy enduring concern if Iโ€™m a Geelong supporter is their ability to kick goals outside of Tom Hawkins,โ€ Lyon toldย SEN Breakfast.

According to Lyon, the only viable candidate to assist Hawkins is rising star Esava Ratugolea and that off-season signings Luke Dahlhaus and Gary Rohan wonโ€™t provide the necessary support.

โ€œI donโ€™t think theyโ€™ve addressed it, but I suppose Esava Ratugolea could be one that steps up and provides that sort of support.โ€
