What do people reckon, recognising the finals remain ahead, their teams need to get over the trade period and draft?
Collingwood absolutely needs to find a decent centre bounce ruckman. Fraser is a gun player, and his mobility, skills, and ability to go forward are great assets. But he's mediocre at the centre bounce and worse, he makes panic-merchant Guy Richards and pretty average Brien look average in that department. I'm not sure whether there are any quality ruckmen available, or maybe available, but if Sandilands or whoever aren't sewn up watertight, we've got to go after them full throttle. Either that or find some 7 foot tall bloke and tell him his job is to stand in the middle and just tap it down...
After that, a genuinely quick running player would be handy.

So bad its unbelievable. I was so wrong about the Roos, Port, Pies and Hawks. I don't blame myself for thinking Doggies and St Kilda would do well, but I overestimated Melbourne, even if they did have injuries, and I should have known better to think so highly of Freo, who aren't even really a football team, but rather a figment of our imagination.
Got the Coleman right. Brownlow is a possibility although I am very confident Gary Ablett Jnr has that sewn up. Rising Star won't go to Gibbs, and I was wrong about the pre-season cup too.

Key position backman and a skillful outside runner with speed to burn.

Yeah Thomo and Drew Petrie will be good up forward... good to see Petrie finally showing that he can play football.

16>>>>>3hahaha, missing the point tbh
But fwiw, '03 was our last flag, it was quite an enjoyable year tbh. Actually so was the year before it, and the year before that, and '04 wasn't all that bad either.
