Sunday's Herald Sun reported that someone had 1K on Oliver @ $21. Has to be someone from here..

I mean't that I believe his style of play will be more inside grunt and physically hurting opponents like we saw in Ricciuto, than the tear away pace from a stoppage or forward of the play we see from Dangerfield. He has poise which is rare for someone so physical. Ricciuto is one of my all time no Melbourne players and I think Clayton's 'style' may be similar, or, more comparable than Dangerfield.

Whilst I understand Oliver's skill sets being compared to Dangerfield, I think he may evolve into something more like Mark Ricciuto...with a little more poise. Can you imagine?? I genuinely feel we have the makings of the midfield we've been waiting for; Oliver Brayshaw Petracca Viney Tyson Salem VDB Yes we've been down this road before, but this is different. They're each clean / polished / ferocious / unrelenting / driven / thrive on the contest / love body contact - and THAT is something we haven't had. They're coming through together and will be driving the momentum shift, all with a reasonable target to kick to and an emerging mobile tap ruckman. I can smell it.

I would still argue (bucket in hand) that Casboult is a average at best kick, particularly for a key forward. However, a player with his marking ability and size would definitely be of great value.......if his kicking was deemed adequate.

One can take a contested mark but can't kick, the other is a beautiful kick but can't take a contested mark. Personally, I would vomit and be very surprised if we drafted / traded in a player who was poor by foot.

I like your thinking, but he didn't play over 100 games for his son to qualify.
