They did not wait for the 15th then,confirmed it this morning that Steene would join us,I think I am happy with this I did not see a need for Oleg Markov.
I read before the trade period that the club had an eye on someone called Oscar Steene and I did want to get a developing ruck or ruckfor at the draft but now understand why we did not, good luck Oscar give it your best effort.

If he is 204cm and 95kg+ he is no midget and it is good to look at life post Cox And Cameron.

Delist him forthwith we cannot have 201cm ruckman, seriously they have been spruiking him at 204 cm for weeks now, he looks at least 4 or 5 cm taller than Begg and looks like at a 1st ruck.

Strangely Begg is listed as 197cm.... so that probably means that he's 201cm which means Steene would be 204....
 
Much wiser choice for needs but also future in selecting Steene over Markov

Also, if we hadn’t selected him and he went back to West Adelaide and played some good footy…he would be snapped up in the MSD of which we wouldn’t have a selection to utilise as it would have stood.

Good luck to him... Probably the end of Begg as a ruckmen.

In order to play ruckman, one must first be able to play in the ruck. It’s a conundrum alright.
 
Begg has been training as a ruck forward, 2nd ruck type player. You can tell his improvement has come on, he is stronger, taking contested marks and performing strongly in the ruck.

Think Oscar will be more your 1st ruck type player.

But I imagine in the VFL, they'll rotate between ruck and forward.

Contested marks at training are way easier then at game level.
Steene looks good 👍

Yeah, definitely. Needs to incorporate it into games; but he does look stronger now, which will help stopping from being pushed under the ball.

But yeah, Steene does look good, just gets to work. He doesn't care if the players are older than him, he'll compete

Looking at the size of his hands and he already has tree stump legs.
I'm thinking he still has a little growing to go.
Kid will be a monster.

I have to admit that the previous experience of graham wright and leppitsch and bolton and fly gives me some confidence that we made a good choice.
