When I first heard Collard was given the sars by Freo, I thought he must be an absolute cannon given the talent he's got, the fact he was taken relatively high up in the 'Super Draft' and only lasted a year in the system.
I've changed my mind on my thoughts on taking him though. With a very stable list of players who generally don't get themselves into any trouble, I would have thought the Dons would be a good fit for him. I would certainly think that he fits the criteria of being the best player - if he's still available at 5. With all others being a punt, i think he's worth it. The Tigers will take a ruckman in my view. If they do, Collard will slip to us.

No dramas, stick to SEN if you can.

Stefan Martin (36hitouts against Bellchambers in the Vics vs Allies game) should go to either Melbourne at 3 in PSD or Essendon at 8. Shane Valenti (2 best in the league VFL) should go early in the rookie draft.....both are training with melbourne.....

I rather Bellchambers thanks
Mr Recruiter

If you want another slow ruckman whom can't jump....than go for Bellchambers.....Martin has similiar agility to Paddy Ryder - his agility result of 8.37 under the "Victorian draft prospects results" Thread is basically the best of all the draftees and similiar to Kylie Cheney a small dashing forward (agility 8.39). Kreuzer agility is at 9.01 and is 199cm - Martin is 198cm.

At 198 cm I have severe doubts on his ability as a AFL ruck. There are already doubts on Kreuzer as a pure ruckman and he is taller. I think Bellchambers is the one, as we won't have to use pick 5 on him and at pick 8 we have something to work with!
True. Martin would be a lot better than Kruezer or Bellchambers in the ruck.
Not trying to put you down or anything,
but at the end of the day skills and smarts will always overcome and overtake, sure Martin might be bigger and stronger but Kreuzer is Smarter and more Agile, to me "Martin would be a lot better than Kruezer or Bellchambers in the ruck" is a huge over statement.

You're right, that was way too much of an over statement.
You probably know more about me at footy, and I'm not offended at all , because you made a good statement.
