If Dunn could take a contested mark he could be anything but sadly he can't and will never make a KPP untill he develops the skill. It's a pity because we desperately need a FF and CHF and he would have been ideal, so will probably end up being a tall flanker.
tim, there were certain posters on this site (who have been very quiet on the topic lately) who claimed that they had the inside information on the club's so called 'long term' plan for the kid, which has just been proven to be absolute codswollop. There were also remarks made about him being 'mentally weak' as well, which is also crap.
If you listen to the mob here they said he wasn't being played because he wasn't 'mentally right', and there was a 'long term' plan - what a crock of [censored]. Another wasted year playing the same tired old players, and it took our coach to leave for it to change.
McEvoy is a good ruckman, I just think that Kruezer is a little more versatile. Ebert does look pretty good.
The other Selwood brother had a good game today as well, could be a chance for our priority pick if he slips through.
He again did well, 36 touches and a goal, played very well.
Not a top 3 pick though imo.

If he was such a good player then why did Collignwood delist him and no other club pick him up for nothing in the psd?
You say that TJ doesn't go for the hard ball, well by the end of his career, Woewodin's reputation was worse than TJ's.
Woewodin didn't perform at Collingwood and if he was still a good player then he'd still be playing.
Oh, and we were paying 50k btw. He turned into a soft front runner who'd lift his head when he heard footsteps, and the fact that you think that he is currently better than TJ makes it obvious that you don't knwo what you're talking about.
No it wasn't. Woewodin was my favourite player at the time but even I realised it ended up being a great move. Bruce is tradeable because he currently has value, in fact I think he is one of our few players who are overrated outside of the club.
I'd keep Neitz and McDonald, look to trade White and delist (or trade if any offers) the rest. Also get some offers for Bruce, but only trade him if it's a great deal.
Wasn't a bad first up game, not great either. He's shown that he can find space in a crowded forwardline and he works hard the other way, contrary to some beliefs on this site.
He could be a very good player, I just hope he gets more games this year.
