On 774 radio this afternoon Bucks was asked what was happening with H said:

Friendly relations, not as acute as described by media, that H deserves to have a rejuvenated career, that in this day & age it is less common for a player over so many career games to be at one club. (In short, if the right deal is struck he's gone).

This was said with the admission that Collingwood basically want Clark & have seen him on 2-3 occasions & are doing their due diligence.
Reports that Clark is already training at Westpac Center

White could make a good 3rd tall. 2 decent talls playing well may well open up the world for him.

I think Clarke would be a good addition. Makes for a whole collection of people running through the forward line and the ruck.
Magpies, please recruit well. Please sort the injury issues. Let us play with a full list.

White would definitely be suited as a third tall if Cloke and Clark were in the same forward line.

I'm strongly in favour of going after Clark if he isn't held back by a debilitating foot injury that he had a few years ago and he's managing his personal issues quite well. He's a huge talent when on song.

Also, thinking outside the box a bit, white could also play wing or midfield. He's quick, has a tank and has skills.

Remember that these days the only time the players are in their positions is when there's a centre bounce, the rest of the time it's a mad free for all.

Must admit, I have given up on White. Hope he proves me wrong but just not a good footballer, IMO. Perhaps CHB where the forward could keep him in the game but really, I think we stuffed up giving him 3 years.

At Sydney White had Tippett, Goodes, Reid et alia to act as a foil.
This year he's pretty much had Cloke only as a tall alternative.
He's not the messiah, but he could be a handy third option if he gets to spend some time with the alternate players and get working together.

Really? Which reports DTM?

Perhaps assessing him as part of the due diligence?
