Former supporters…

[crazywildhorse]

….now players.

they seem to point it out now. I don’t know how it has been in the past, but there are a lot of players on the list that grew up supporting us. I wonder if there is a level of tactic involved here. Bleeding brown and gold and all.

I have it as:
Moore
Scrimshaw
Ginnivan
Ward
MacKenzie
Maginness (the nuffie himself)

They are all about 8 when we played our recent 4 Grand Finals a significant age to start supporting a winning team.

The threepeat I am sure helped. I wonder how following a team through that kind of success and childhood 'supportership' helps them play in the end. In a way, you could be looking at half of our players in the next premiership team being former supporters.

 

[Slainte]

If we pick up McCabe and Dear in the draft there will be another two.

Seems a lot more Hawthorn supporters coming through the system in the last few years. Wonder why??

Should be targeting all 4 of them especially the 2 pillars

If we can land 1/2 would be perfect

Larkey signed until 2029. Taylor not FA till 2026. Sheezel is still in nappies.

Sadly Smith is the only realistic one.

That 2008 to 2015 core was genuinely one of the more exciting football teams of all time. Would of picked up a lot of converts.

You can add Lachie Whitfield to that list.

While it's a nice idea thinking just being Hawthorn supporters growing up would be a big enough pull it's never as simple as that. Without having the stats I'd imagine the majority of AFL players past and present have quite happily played for other teams and never really seriously entertained the idea of changing to their "former" club for various reasons.

Wouldn’t have a clue

 

[Nathan Detroit]

Might have a look at the thread title. Made me think it would be about folks who no longer support the club, and I didn't see how that was possible.

Yeah pretty sure they are current supporters
