If one more person say Charlie Curnow is a midfielder i'll lose my sh1t. He moves like a forward, marks and kicks like a forward and has never played midfield in his footy career. He was going to play midfield in his last season at U18's but got injured.Well put Raydan. I said before the draft I wanted to see speed and speed we got, as well as a few talls to boot. I'm happy.
We got another tall forward this year and will get another one next season Ben Silvagni. Surely that's enough for now.
We need mids who have speed and can kick and that's what we got.
Look at the last 4 premiers, their forward lines may have some height up there but the damage is done with small flankers, and their midfield collectively on had Bontempelli a the big mid although Roughead did swing through there for Hawthorn.
I don't know how many of you looked at the draft but there wasn't much on offer for big forwards or big bodied mids. Brodie was about the only class one and there are very big questions over his ability to play two way football. SPS and Fisher are known for their defensive run
