Mind you, this could be an IQ balance:

What with Heater going to GWS our footy club's collective IQ would have been far too high

Paine I think was applying to or was going studying law. THis also affects his uni studies (assuming he was studying). On an individual level, the horse trading must be a huge shock & in some cases could be very disruptive / traumatic.
On SEN this morning, Paul Connors (his manager) had said to him last week it was a 2% chance of him going and he was distraught and now its a 2% chance he won't be going. Paine knows he is 3-4 in the pecking order for a tall forward now that Jesse White is with the club. Therefore a move to Brisbane might be the best for his career as they need some talls forwards there. Connors expects a straight swap with Pat Karnezis.

Ruby is that you

Good luck to the kid

Never great to hear that the kid was supposedly leant on to make the move.

He will get more opportunties in Brisbane but how he copes mentally with the move is another thing.

Pies recently interviewed 20 yr old Fraser Thurlow (mobile KPF/Ruck, 199cm & 100kg) From QLD, who said that of all the teams that have interviewed him, Collingwood's interview was by far the most complete and longest.
This may indicate one off three things
1. We have overly long interviews
2. We are interested in him
3. We are interested in KPF/Rucks in particular

I suspect it is 2 or 3, maybe we were already thinking about life without Paine several weeks ago.

Fraser was BOG in a one of the state games this year and although playing for Labrador, played all his junior football for Southport Sharks, who have produced many good AFL players including Beams, Jesse White, Nick Roo, Tippett and many more.

^ I think you'll find long interviews do not necessarily translate into draft selections.
