incredible work by tanner, carnell and the boys.

would be a great time to add one more piece, ideally an AM with some creativity, to try to put us over the top and ensure we have the depth to cope with an injury and still contend for cup and shield. doesn’t have to be a world-beater, just someone who can give us a different look than vassilev and rotate effectively with him and quinn.

And maybe a CB rental for depth

I certainly wouldn’t object to that, especially if Glavinovich is unlikely to get back to full speed. However, I could also see Neil Pierre becoming that guy if given the chance. I’m not a pro scout by any means, but I remember when I watched the U2 last year, he and Makhanya seemed roughly equally solid back there.
