Oborne's goal from the pocket in the last quarter was an absolute ball tearer - Daics would have been proud.
> Nick Davis and Brad Oborne both made the All Australian side from the Under 18 Championships. They are both eligible for Collingwood to pick up under the father and son rule. They have also been semi-regulars in Collingwood's reserves.
> I think it is most likely we will pick them up. Channel seven showed a game today(Sunday) between Vic Metro and Western Australia, where Oborne scored 4 goals. He looked classy and a couple of his goals were brilliant.
> Meanwhile Nick Davis has been kicking bags including 6 and 4 for NSW/ACT from a forward flank.
> The 1998 draft could well be the most significant draft for Collingwood since 1988.
