Has shown during the seasons that he can be very dangerous from the Midfield and he can Actually Deliver the ball very well to our Forwards.

People say we don't have pace in the Midfield - Well Dick can Fix That Very Happy

Well I doubt he would be a Permant Forward next Season but he should spend time there.

Remember Leon was like Dick when he Started

yeah and it took leon what 8 years to play midfield and 10 to be a star at it?

Dick is more useful and will play better alternating between forward pocket and HFF

Most Likely and Might Push up to the Wings

Would need a massive preseason Dave, endurance wise and also in the gym. Could possibly pinch hit if struggling to get a kick or just to throw up something different but I imagine it'd be very limited.

Dave our midfield is small enough as it is. Brad Dick is the tiniest kid in the AFL. I shudder to think of him going into a pack with Ablett or Chapman.

I want all our midfielders to bulk up.

It will be quite a few years yet until we see young Dick in the Midfield. Remember, this is his first season back after a Knee Reco and he seriously needs to add another 10k in muscle before we even think about the strength and conditioning work he needs.

The kid has massive talent and elite foot skills and is an unbelievably exciting player, but he will need a lot of work put into him. Similar to Leon, the CFC coaching staff will be very patient in how they use him.

In truth, at the moment, the likes of Ablett and Chapman would snap him in half and use him for arm curls.

I know Geelong are the reigning premiers but lets not get too carried away with the idea that midfielders need to be built like brick outhouses. Dick on a wing would get the space to show his class and remember our midfield now have the sevices of Jolly. We are going to win more tap outs than we lose next year.

He's a forward. As is Didak, Davis, Medhurst.

Weve drafted midfielders. Beams, McCarthy, Pendlebury, Wellingham. Put them in the middle.

Dick could be a great wingman / half forward, the bloke who is our next decent midfielder will be Maccaffer.
