I'm still keen on Clem Smith for a later pick, with a good preseason he can lose the fat arse, and Cockatoo looked great in the Grand Final curtain raiser (so did Weller). According to astute watchers (Chris ), Cockatoo was highly rated before he got injured, so the recent hype is just returning him to his original level. Is our first round draft pick too high?
I know we may need another tall, but I'm hopeful that we will have two or more long careers from A. Pearce, T. Smith, Apeness, Taberner or Hurley. Last one is a long shot, admittedly. Even so, I'd be happy with someone like Hugh Goddard. Just no more Ruckmen.
At least I mentioned our first draft pick...
