Yep, and we've been talking about it in here for a while.

Even Hopper is a decent shot.

Once we get a mid with a bit more pace in there eg KMac2, Hotton when he's ready, Harley Reid because he'd been a sick acquisition, we should look to rotate Taz/Hop forward in that Caddy-esque role.

From Barrett's Sliding Doors column:


IF ...
coach Yze attempted to explain away Tim Taranto's last-minute withdrawal against Collingwood in round 20 by saying he "just felt a bit of awareness" in his calf ...

THEN ...
shock, horror, he's not back this week to play Gold Coast. "Awareness". Please.

If.....
Taranto chose Collingwood instead of Richmond

Then.....
He'd be playing finals and would be a premiership player with the pies in his first season.
