Though we went down the Smedts, Palmer road, I'n not unhappy to have them - they were cheap gets. The deal to snare Marchbank and Pickett is a ripper really. I'm very excited by these two - added to the past two year's list of recruits. Exposure, development, confidence, momentum, injury-free. We need this from the whole list, but those young blokes need this is a big way. Can't wait for the season to start!
Some bigger bodied mids I did want - were Koby Stevens, Jack Steele and Mick Barlow. I was keen on the first two particularly as younger players, then we missed out. It's water under the bridge now, but I'm hoping we get some more size and strength in the midfield at seasons end (ie. GWS's Matt Kennedy and the Dogs Lin Jong). Who knows, maybe Charlie Curnow muscles his way into the midfield in 2017 to help out Crippa!
