    Nathan Brown

    What a perfect scalp if we can land this one. Definitely a massive inclusion to help assist in taking contested marks. What do you guys think of the chances of him coming to the kennel?

    OMG!! I thought you were talking about Judas (the other NB) there for a minute.
    Would be a good pick up for us to play at CHB if Williams never gets to where we need him to get to.

    Since we're living in hypothetical land, if he were to come to the dogs and we did have a fully fit Williams, would we contemplate playing Williams forward? I do recall a few years ago a club official stating that eventually Wililams could become a centre half forward. Is this realistic also taking into account Hall will most likely take the best tall defender.

    Gee I saw the title of your thread and almost gave you both barrels!

    I'm not sure about NB, doesn't look to have as good disposal or be as mobile as his twin. But he is brave and big. What do we give up for him?

    A hypothetical possibility. Tom still has a lot of development and proving to do. At this stage in his progress I often sit there extremely nervous when he either has the ball or is near to a contest in the backline. For me this anxiety would be amplified come finals time IF we make it and not addressed. So for me a yes simply on possibility.

    I don't remember that much of seeing him play to make a judgement, but I'd rather Jesse White or Simon Black. Or alternatively just keep Everitt and stay the hell out of it.

    (sorry couldn't come up with any more colour names for the life of me)

    Not 100% sold on this idea just yet.

    Not sure if any of these are available, but they fit the colour name criteria

    - Leigh Brown

    This N Brown would be a great pick up. I remember his first few games - didn't he play on J Brown, Pavlich and Lloyd in his first 3??? Welcome to the big time!!

    Very similar to Skinny.

    Take 1 pick apart in the draft, both started off very well but but both spent most of 2009 playing VFL.

    Brown is an old school, one-dimensional full back and the worst club for him to be at is Collingwood. Prest is the best old school, 1D full back in the league and there is probably only room for one of that type in a decent 22.

    Not sure what we would do if we got him and Tom Williams somehow stayed fit for a couple of weeks in a row.
