6. Dan McStay

McStay joins Collingwood from Brisbane and is a versatile player, having played down back and in the forward line during his time at Brisbane.

McStay cemented himself as a forward in 2019, playing all 24 games and kicking 21 goals.

An influential player in Brisbane's finals series last year, McStay had 23 disposals, six tackles and a goal in their two-point win over Richmond in the elimination final, whilst kicking two goals and taking six marks in a semi-final win over Melbourne.

McStay looked impressive during pre-season games, kicking three goals against Carlton.

The Magpies have been searching for a big key forward for years, and they look set to use McStay as the No.1 target inside 50.
