He's got a bit of a Raging Bull thing going, but he needs to just pull it back a little bit. Other than that gun, do want. Would probably cost a pick around 20 I reckon.

I for one would love Zak Jones. Aggressive, competitor, speed, ball use of half back, one you want in the trenches when it gets real tuff. Nathan has been a star in a very ordinary side over a period of time and I think Zak will end up having better career so make ofvthat what you will.
Make it happen !!
Terrible by foot ? A little harsh I think. Agree in taking Sav's position and also turning him into a mid would be a bonus. Spot on there Rors.
My mates & I play drinking games when we watch Swans games.... Pick a player out of Kennedy, Jones, Hanners & Aliir - every time a kick misses a target or is a critical turnover, you drink...
Most times we're all smashed halfway through the 1st quarter

Our issue in the middle is we don't have minimum 3 elite mids when it's crunch time.
Against the cats we really only have Steven with the capability to 'lift' in that last quarter at the centre clearances. Cats had Selwood, Dangerfield
Watching freo against north in the last quarter when they lifted it was Fyfe, Mundy, Neale.
Bombers have Watson, Merrett, Heppel.
Pies have Treloar, Pendlebury, Adams, Sidebottom
Tigers have Cotchin, Martin, Prestia
Swans have Kennedy, Parker, Hanneberry
Evelyn the Lions have Zorko, beams, rockliff
You get the idea.
Unless we can see some of out other mids entering the elite category in 1-2 seasons it really emphasises the need to attract 2 of Kelly, Fyfe, Martin, Rockliff etc..
We have the draft picks, we have the salary cap space. We need to land some elite mids to take us into the top 4.

Yes , contested ball winners. Steven and Armitage are OK at it.
Ross is getting better but still miles away.
GWS have Ward, Shiel, Kelly, Greene, Smith, Scully, Johnson.....
And then have waiting in the wings: Hopper, Kennedy, Taranto, Setterfield, Perryman
Injured: Coniglio Deledio Griffen
Life is NOT fair
Can he play midfield

Hopefully every Victorian club picks the eyes out of that midfield group over the next 2-3 years .
What's the go with Jack Trengove, will he be permanently slow?
Perhaps
Found Jonathon Brown's opinion interesting on On The Couch last night regarding Collingwood's rebuild. He was surprised and bemused that the Pies didn't start their rebuild with their spine as thats 'what all the good teams do'.
Does show that you can have Champion Data's number one ranked midfield but if you lack real quality at both ends of the ground, more often than not you're going to struggle.
Keeps my faith strong that we have attacked this rebuild absolutely the correct way. Starting strong at both ends with young KPP's whilst developing a really strong, workman like midfield learning the game in a way that will hold strong in finals football. And we are in a position now we're almost certain to add at least 3 more elite midfield talents this off season.

Good post. It's all going to plan pretty well as far as I'm concerned. Just need to nail the next couple of draft and FA periods and we'll be right up there.
My gut says that we won't know until they make an announcement.
Then again, my gut is full of scotch and coke.
Correct.
Jones is a goer but is not what we need. He really isn't.
We need elite midfielders. 3-4 of them.

Not quite, mate. Dees gave up draft picks No. 3 and 14 (Scully compensation selection) for Hogan, Barry and pick 20. A reasonable trade.
But the Scully deal netted them both a first-round and a mid-first round draft pick as compensation.
Outrageous!

I know for a fact that my mates play it with Gilbert, Geary, Stuv & Acres if we're playingPossibly find that Swans fans do the same when watching us every time we miss a goal

The reason we picked billings was because we saw him becoming a midfielder after 3 years. It's even in there draft meetings they held. They thought he had the potential to play midfield and he hasn't proven the scope yet. Petracca takes a s*** on billings
Well that just seems unhygienic
To each their own...
