    While I love watching young players develop in the NEAFL and build their craft, its equally satisfying to see them doing it on the big stage as well. He is calm, composed and classy, and its always been clear as day that his decision making is very, very good. Has all the attributes to become an elite player very quickly. Our young brigade shows that our future is very, very bright indeed!
    Future's so bright, gotta wear shades!

    Because we used the Tom Mitchell pick, and then traded up, to land Ollie.
    C'mon Chels!

    I was confused by what Ludwig said, which was �Ollie has bolted past falling star Tom Mitchell. We really picked Hawthorn's pockets on this one�

    I wouldn�t say that was true yet.

    I�m guessing that there is some element of tongue in cheek.

    Maybe if we were pitting Ollie against Tom in a one on one sprint you could say that 'Ollie has bolted past falling star Tom Mitchell' as Markweos said.

    True

    As far as game style goes moving forward, Ollie seems more like the bloke we always needed over 2.5m*-per-possession-gained-Mitchell.

    * - slight exaggeration included above.
    C'mon Chels!
