Forward line looks dangerous on paper now, hopefully translates to reality. Just need a small pressure forward I reckon. Easy enough to get.

Now to the midfield.
We need players getting the ball to them is the problem. We are getting smashed on the spread we need hard runners on this list this week.

It's clear the club is aware of this...hence going so hard for Shiel and setterfield.

Can't win them all...its with setterfield, McGovern, Lloyd and russell it's still been a very good off season for a two win team.

I wasn't sure at first about landing him but I have since changed my mind after hearing him talk about working with Charlie and Harry and Carlton success. I hope he has a great career with us!

We seriously now have what could be the greatest 3-tall forward line of all time! This is our Roughy/Franklin/Gunston equivalent. If they reach potential, I think they can even outdo those three. Geez the Hawks had a great line-up then when you think of Cyril and Breust as their crumbers. We're building something just as special. So friggin pumped with McGov. Already booked my Rd 1 flghts!

McGovern actually 66% part of the Gibbs deal now. Add that to O'Brien, Kennedy, DeKoning and Schumacher. Thanks Bryce.

Will be a really good get, I think we can add versatility to his game. See him as a forward who can impact in the midfield as either a high half forward or onball stints. Another bow to our forward line anyway.

Did he win 1 or 2 games after the final siren this year? Either way good to have a forward with sheed-like ice in the veins.

Bit of meltdown over on another board which is always a good sign.

Very excited to have Mitch.

He is a walking mismatch.

You beat him in the air? Sure, but now the ball has hit the ground and Mitch is nimble and quick af, tackles aggressively and knows where the goals are.
YES now I'm excited. More of this chat please.
