Kyle Hartigan: Looks to be a solid Fullback ....

BlackHawk23 · 3 Nov 2009, 17:43

Go to school with the big fella, looks to be a solid Fullback, had a minor injury which droped his value in the draft ( he told me was told top 30). Hawthorn have spoken to him number of times, and so as essendon and Geelong.

i have had a kick with the fella and he can jump..

would be an great prospect down back and even could try him as a 3rd ruckmen in times when really needed.

Whats your views?

The afl draft selector is absoloute rubbish.

Anyone that thinks Kyle Hartigan will slip to pick 39 is dreaming. The guy was touted a top ten pick & if you want to go by the fantasy draft system that your link refers to, notice the other players that are listed.

Hawthorn's top ranked draftees as picked by users:
No Player Pos. DOB Club St.
1 kyle hartigan » Def 07-Nov-1991 Western Jets VIC
2 broc mccauley » Ruck 20-Dec-1986 Southport QLD
3 sean tighe » Def 09-Jan-1991 Western Jets VIC
4 alexander stopp » Def 18-Mar-1990 - SA
5 max gawn » Ruck 28-Dec-1991 Sandringham VIC
6 angus kurtze » Ruck 27-Jan-1986 Sturt SA
7 daniel talia » Def 02-Oct-1991 Calder VIC
8 shaun tapp » Def 19-Dec-1988 Aspley QLD
9 nathan vardy » Ruck 25-Jun-1991 Gippsland VIC
10 tom scully » Mid 15-May-1991 Dandenong VIC

Majority of these players are touted as top 10 picks. Scully, Talia, Tapp, Stopp, Vardy & Hartigan. Not sure about the rest but I'm sure they aren't too far off top 10 or 20.

In such a shallow draft i highly doubt that a little injury is going to deter a club in picking this hartigan up. If he slips down the pecking order as you suggest, he will not be available by pick 20 let alone 39.

It would be fantastic if it happened. But it won't happen.

Thanks for info Blackhawk, lets hope what he has been told, assumably by club recruting staff that he is available at our pick.
Is he related to Brent Hartigan that played a dozen games or so for Richmond and played his junior footy at Westmeadows?

BlackHawk23 · 3 Nov 2009, 19:54

ill find out for ya brad

maybe, because my school is around that area, not sure what club he plays for only know western ill go back to ya

Why don't you tell Kyle to sustain a minor injury so the hawks can pick him up with 39. Just make sure you let Pelchen know that it's a scam so he doesn't pick up another Thorp

You might be on to something there Pumpa.
Blackhawk just mention to young Kyle to pull up a touch can you please?

If he is from Westmeadows, it wont be long before he gets injured in a bar brawl at the Old Broady or smashes his trail bike riding through the paddocks anyway

Or seeing I am the BYW champion dimi pumpanopoulous, maybe I can just go down give him a few sharpshooters & then he can just fake the seriousness of the injury and push himself around in a wheel chair. Then Hawthorn comes thru with pick 69 & its dinner for two mater. Kyle just strolls into the club piece of piss if you ask me mater.

Dont stress too much mate, just curious.
I'm from the area also so it would be nice to hear that the Hawks had picked up a player from mine, and yours, neck of the woods.
