Who the Wiggles gave up because they knew his knees were futterly ucked.

Still one of the most exciting footballers I've seen who didn't manage a career.

Minimum of 3 senior list changes.

I reckon this deal is happening: the signs point to us dealing Witts, to do that we must sign another ruck. Unlike other ruck chasing teams (Dogs, Dons) we've only been linked to one player - Kreuzer.

Two possibilities: either he's clearly our first choice and we'll only look at other options if we really have to, or we're very confident of signing him.

That Witts was on the outer towards the end of the season suggests we already had something lined up or at least close to.

I thought the rule is that you need to have three live picks in the draft?

^ I believe it is too, but think that can include upgraded rookies and father sons

I don't think Collingwood has an "Open Daw" policy with recruits....

I'm sure Majak could force his way in.

When one Dawes shuts, another Daw's open.

he or she don't think Collingwood get an Open Daw policy with recruits?

Pretty sure I shouldn't laugh at that, but I did.
