Yeah, nah. Let's give Ceglar a chance. Played game(s) with our VFL team couple of years back and has a lot of bounce/ versatility for a tall. Apparently did enough in games this year that Shifter had predicted him going mid-draft if we hadn't snaffled him. Who knows with rucks, but Ceglar, BigMac and Keeffe probably enough projects for now?

Not sure on Ryan, and I'd bet on current rookie Tom Hunter in a year or two more than Myles (not equivalent players, but Hunter is a gun).

Now a CHF or at least someone to play third tall coming through would be handy. Just not a lot around, even in the rookie draft. Perhaps Farmer with extension height boost boots will have to do till next year?

Forgot about ceglar he sounds good agree third tall forward would be great and hunter and young and goldsack are good defenders and are young. Tarrant will be handy down both ends
