I agree that they should hold onto the mid-season draft. I think it was a success and it eases a little bit of pressure on injury plagued lists.

But I'm guessing we wont be having one in 2020??

When things are back to normal, I think we should continue with it, especially if they're going to cut list sizes.

Johhny my boy —yes there are little gems waiting to be added to our list

God knows we could do with an experienced 22-25 yr old

Watching the VFL last week, we had an 18 yr old giant of a ruckman, Moyle (I think), who is 205 cms and a big bodied unit. A tad slow, but so have many great ruckmen over the years. Not sure if he is available, but he'd be a good addition, as back up and as a development ruck option.

Mick “Galloping Gasometer “ Nolan was slower than a wet week but rucked them to a flag
The Monk weren’t endowed with pace for a 1990 flag

Players like Grundy and NicNat are rare commodity

Not sure it’s another ruck we want with Lynch /Cameron on our list

Even more rare b a big body forward to assist Checkers

I believe Ned Moyle is a Collingwood "VFL Development List" player. I do not know whether that gives us any special right to him.

That's a good insight into the family bonds and the character of both Noble's. Thanks K.
John Noble has been a really useful pick up for us from the mid-season draft and a tick for Hines and co to identify him.

^ He's been a decent pick up. A good replacement for Sam Murray.

Wasn’t Quainor on our development list before we got him?

He was a part of our Next Gen academy.
