Mmm, I'm not so sure about that. We weren't light on for Marty Hore types, in fact we were flush with them; Langdon, Goldsack, Howe, Crisp, Appleby etc are all around Hore's height and play in a similar manner. We needed a genuine tall shutdown defender.
Mid-season trading would've made it really interesting last year. Imagine acquiring Roughead mid way through last year? That's a premiership right there.

Maybe we can still get him this year. Would Hawthorn be prepared to release him?
Bulldogs already have a pick after Liam Picken retired. But if they didnt, the Tom Boyd retirement would have pushed us back another spot. I dunno, maybe I'm being silly?
