    I wonder what his skills will be like.

    Generally basketballer's are fairly skilled so hopefully he is a good set shot and possibly play in the forward line with Hoges.

    Anybody who is about 1.93 metres and can run sub 2.80 seconds for 20 metres is seriously fast.

    He would have decent peripheral vision, fitness, and adherence to strict instruction to play at a high level of Bball, but that's about all you can read into it as far as how he adapts to footy.

    Most bball players I have come across that move into footy are all over the talent spectrum but they all really buy into the structures - makes sense to them coming from bball.

    18, 19, 20, 21?

    We just need to pick up Lovett and all of a sudden it's 1995 again.

    It's the day for it. We're just now getting in touch with Marty McFly to get his signature for next season, last season, and 1987.

    I'm still amazed by the Geelong recruitment of Mark Blicavs in similar fashion and how much he evolved.

    Would love for Smith to become our Blicavs.

    So, what are the rules for a Category B Rookie? Does he need to be upgraded like any other rookie if he is to play? For the purpose of playing list numbers, does he take one of the rookie spots? How many years can he stay on the list as a Category B Rookie?

    Seems like a good time to revisit:

    Genuine surprise and excitement over this announcement.

    Hats off to the club for playing their cards so close to their chest this trade period.

    Wow!

    I love the romance of the preseasons' endless possibilities.

    The drums are sounding and it feels great.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
