I'm actually surprised he's only been given a one year contract. I'd have thought he's performed well enough to get a 2-3 yr contract. Still, I guess it will keep the pressure on him to perform next year. Well done Oleg.
I like the fact that we literally took him while he was training for a spot on Carlscum’s list. A superb get from Hine and Co. I love the way he plays. I fully agree that he should have been given a 2 - 3 year contract.
I term the current Collingwood attack based strategy “Unceasing Waves” like on a stormy and windy day with rough seas. A Perfect Storm

Well, there's no real flight risk, so no need to go overboard.
Often players do well the first year at a new club. Motivation, new environment, etc. Matthew Lloyd says you should judge them on their second year.

I looked it up.
In probability theory and related fields, a stochastic (/stəˈkæstɪk/) or random process is a mathematical object usually defined as a sequence of random variables, where the index of the sequence has the interpretation of time.

Copacetic in fact.
We've all heard that a million monkeys banging on a million typewriters will eventually reproduce the entire works of Shakespeare. Now, thanks to the Internet, we know this is not true.�

While there's nothing random about his own distribution, the reversible-jump Markov chain, set to be unleashed on the big stage, will grant us a superior grasp of posterior distribution, hence enabling our forwards to better judge the flight, fall and bounce of the ball. Oleg has laid off the Monte Carlos for most of the year, but apparently Fly knows Bayes, whom you may recall is a Sydney Swans hall of famer, and they've been running simulations ahead of the game.
The grand final canonical ensemble will be well beyond Brisbane.
