Guy taking a grab at the Old Girl. Unfortunately the Old Girl hasn't hosted AFL footy since we drafted him!

Background:
Left footed ruckman who has all the attributes to be a servicable ruckman for the Collingwood Magpies. The only deficiency noted in his game, is his inability to show us his game, for us to note deficiencies. I'm at least 25% sure that he's still on our list, and even more certain that if he is, he will almost play round 1 only to be set back by [Balme]minor soreness[/Balme] of a body part which will require a Wikipedia search.

Strengths:
- Wins hitouts in the ruck
- Good footskills
- Fairly agile for height

Weaknesses:
- Weight
- Back
- Achillies
- Groin
- Knee
- All other body parts

Richards stunning the football world by winning one of Collingwood's ten genuine hitouts of the naughties.

This has worked on other team boards so I just had an idea to get 44 Collingwood Posters to support one player from our list for the year. THen, maybe through the year, each poster can give updates on that player and expectations in the future for the player. That way we can hear up-to-date information on all of the players. We know we will hear all the usual goss from J 26# and LF50 becuase they are champions, but this is an idea so everyone can put in and try their hardest to get information about their particular player.

What you do is sign up, and then pick a random number between one and forty four. I have given them random numbers, and I will have whatever number is left over.

Anyway sign up and see how it goes:

Here's a quick summary of what I've heard about Iles.

Wiz generally does not rate him one bit.

Pros:
- Good Composure, confident.
- Good tank
- Moves well in traffic
- Most people see him as a smart footballer

Cons:
- Another plodder? Average skills, average pace, average size
- Wiz really questions his footy smarts

Has impressed in training and the intra club match playing both in the midfield and the backline. Was in the 28 man squad to face St.Kilda.


If there is a fair number of players not picked up perhaps certain individuals can get another pick ;)
 
Congratulations, your players are:

30. stui magpie - Shane O'Bree
18. guess_who - Rhyce Shaw
20. Stakerz - Simon Prestigiacomo

Yay, Cheesy. I'll have to work to convince everyone that his ability to get the ball isn't ruined by the perception of his average disposal.:D
