what about rhett biglands from the crows?i mean we are not gonna get a teams first choice ruck so why not go after him

[Hiya-and-Higher]

Agree with you d'pie...I'd love to see what the reserve players can do before giving them up for new blood.

We have had a charmed life with injuries and that I'm very glad of.

You can forget the one about Nick Stevens.

Collingwood tried to swap him for Scotty Burns at the end of last year and they threw a wad of money at him, but he re-signed a three year deal with Port because he wanted to stay loyal and he saw a big future for the club.

H & H,
I can sympathise with your sentiment, but, personally, I am now inpatient. We have great talent in our young list but we must have success very soon. It has been too long and we should stive for the ultimate glory. It is imperative, given our recent history, that CFC does everything within its power to finish top 4 next year and win finals. That must be the absolute minimum requirement. I understand and even agree with the philosophy of building a sustainable list and playing culture. But the the two are not mutually exclusive.

In order to finish top 4 and win finals we will need to recruit. Our deficiancies must be addressed over summer - no excuses. Our no.1 deficiency (my opinion) is a ruckman. No2. is a CHB or FB of quality.

I will be dissapointed if we get (only) young promising players because we already have them. We must find, chase and secure quality. We have fringe players now that are tradable comodoties whereas in the past if you couldn't get a regular game at CFC you were (correctly) not considered senior material. That is not the case now. We can afford to trade players and, given our youth, draft choices for the RIGHT player.

I've also heard that Rupert and Tyson are going to Port in exchange for Nick Stevens 

I can tell you now that will never happen. For a start Nick Stevens is one of the best midfielders in teh comp...Rubert and Tyson struggle to get a game...why would Port make such a deal? Especially two types of players Port do not need with the likes of Dew, Schofield, Murray, Hollands and Guerra in the side/squad

Nick Stevens loves Adelaide, and he loves Port as well...if he did not love Port Adelaide he would not of signed a three year deal at the end of last season - the perfect time to leave Port one would of thought.

We really really need a ruckman bad. Seeing Alessio getting hit outs almost made me sick

So please lets get a quality euckman
