Bit of a feel good story this one, hope the young bloke can lift to the next level.Is this a misprint?
.He booted 29 goals in 11 games for Wangaratta this year and burst onto the scene with a remarkable bag of 11 in just his third senior game.
11 goals in a game for a tiny bloke? Ovens and Murray is a good standard comp, that's ridiculous.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Going right back to mid 1950.,s we’ve had presence up that way

The great Bob Rose coached successfully till he returned to us

Ben Reid captain/ coaching them to last yr flag

Got a good feeling (for what it’s worth)

^ From the Collingwood profile: "Richards is slightly undersized for a pure midfielder..."

Noble was a mid season pick up.

Look, I certainly hope we do have Boomer MkII, but its highly unlikely he is gonna make it against the hard bodies of the AFL at that size
