Assuming we draft a half back to replace Rioli and maybe move Short up the ground, they won't be ready for a year or so.

What about putting Mansell back to half back. He looked good at times there but had a bit of the Steve Morris bull at a gate attitude. He has matured a long way since then.

He is quick, physical, a good kick and a very hard runner. I can't see any other reasonable prospects on our list bar Smith, who may be a player but probably not just yet.

Our half forward line is going to be full.
I’m not sure I’d classify Mansell as a good kick, the penetration isn’t there like Rioli and Short. I couldn’t see him being the go to man in the back half.
Certainly has the hardness and running capacity and Probably as good as anyone on our list to play on the quick small forwards.
I’m hoping Smith comes on next year, but he’s not in the same class as Rioli or Short re kicking.
Probably trying to get the ball into Browns hands as much as possible in the back half ( assuming he plays there)
