Totally disagree with this view. As Liz pointed out, if B2 went down we'd be in all sorts of trouble.

I was surprised when Allison suggested they were looking at a key forward, as I would have thought a full back should be the priority. Maybe the order should be 1) midfield, 2) defence, 3) forward line.

They probably feel that our defense has done OK despite LRT and Barry missing parts of the season and that we have adequate backup in Brennan and Grundy.

I really hope we target a gun midfielder (pacey and skillful) in our exchange for Jolly - don't really want the uncertainty of even a top 10 pick.

If the R22 Hawthorn game was anything to go by, our forward line looks to be OK even if Hall or MOL were to retire in a year or two. However, the coaching staff undoudtedly believe we need a true power forward rather than using ROK or Davis to fill the gap.
