Rumour Yarran to Hawthorn

[TheExtractorFactor]

Have been told by a reliable source that we made a play for him last year that was rejected but that won't be the case this time around. The Hawthorn coaching staff rate him very highly and he is clearly disinterested and on the outer at the Blues.

I don't have a friend who knows someone who is mates with a person who works for the club lie.

But my gut feeling is that Yarran will be a Hawk next year.

 

[HTPunter]

Very different player to Suckling, but could slot into the back half/wing and be used in a similar way (as in driving the ball forward, except using his pace/short kicking rather than long kicking game like Suckling). Suckling meant to be on the way out. Thoughts?

Can replace Burgoyne.

 

[Ian Dunross]

Burgoyne one of the best utilities of the modern era.

Yarran does not fill his boots.

Would still be a good get though.

 

[Matilda05]

Can replace Burgoyne.

And I thought only the * players took drugs...

should come cheap, what would he be worth? considering has been dropped twice this season for disciplinary reasons.

Will Burgoyne play forever will he??

 

[EGYPTIAN HORSE]

Sounds feasible only if Suckling doesn't re-sign.

So only a better player can replace another? Maybe they can get Fyfe??

No, he's probably got one good season left, I just don't rate yarran that highly... ability yes, endeavour no. I feel he goes missing far to often.

 

[Ian Dunross]

Burgoyne & Yarran aren't similar players.

They're indigenous & have good kicking skills.

That's pretty much it.

Terrible comparison.

This is so true.
One can play almost any position on the park at a high level and the other is still battling to settle and give consistent performance in one position.
I would prefer the Hawks had no interest in Yarran.

It's actually the very definition of racist to compare the two.

 

[Ian Dunross]

It's actually hard to compare Burgoyne to any player. Hodge or Goddard I suppose are utility types. Burgoyne is a better one on one player, a more dangerous forward & a better shut down defender.

My favourite non Saint.

Yarran is Jaspar Pittard, but less reliable.

 

[andrew coombs]

I'd be surprised if Hawthorn were not interested in Yarran. He is highly talented and clearly not interested in staying at Carlton. He ticks a lot of boxes in the well trod Hawthorn pathway of getting in players from other clubs who can improve the team. I would love to get him over.

So what are Carlton getting in return?

They have similar defensive efforts...I guess.

So what are Carlton getting in return?

A 137point loss in round 23 - we'll let you show signs of improvement

 

[Warsaw Winder]

So what are Carlton getting in return?

Maybe worth a mid second round, about 26-30... Hawthorn will probably have picks 17or18, then probably 35 to 40 depending free agency compensation picks and such. Maybe hawthorns second rounder and a swap of third round picks. A pick in the 30s doesn't seem fair value though. Given that there are now future picks in play (although both of the next two drafts are considered a bit soft,) maybe both of hawthorns next two second rounders?

[Hawkinspired]

Suckling will go, and Howe/Litherland will take his spot. Don't need Yarran.

 

[TBoyleSuperstar]

Hope not

As he's still contracted we won't be giving him away. Plus i heard he was keen to go to SA.

I believe Suckling will go. Yarran would be a very nice replacement, who I think would improve under better leadership.

Play with his old mate Eddie Betts?

Get out of the Melbourne AFL fish bowl.

Crows use the Dangerfield compo pick to get him.

Makes a bit of sense.
