Big Fish ?...Hawthorn trade news and targets thread(not for trade hypotheticals)

[Rioli magic]

I particularly like that after trading Birchall, he gets to remain in our best 22: with alchemy like that we will become invincible!

No, that's a gun junior Birchall we pick in the National Draft with the Bulldogs 3rd pick we get for Henderson - shrewd.

Ah Wrighty, always one step ahead!

Ahead of anyone else, I'd like to see Ryan Burton tied up in a very long-term deal.

How much cap space will we have for next year to spend?

Really Unsociable Hawk?

 

[The Jet From Poowong]

Raise your hand and go to the naughty corner if you were one of the people advocating that Hawthorn trade for the ex Geelong spud that McEvoy annihilated on Sunday.

 

[Roughies Boys]

Really Unsociable Hawk?

Yeah would we have enough to put an offer on Fyfe, then back it up with a offer in Tom Lynch the year after

Has it crossed your mind that no one on this forum knows? Best you can expect are educated guesses unless you know Graeme Wright.

I thought Unsociable Hawk was GW ?

Seeing as we don't have a cba yet even Wrighty would be guessing if he gave you with a number right now

I mean it would be a pretty good guess, I'm guessing

 

[Roughies Boys]

In a ideal world we would recruit Fyfe, Lever, Kreuzer, Whitfield & Lynch over the next couple of years.

Man. Your avatar. Fyfe looks bloody ripping in a Hawks guernsey.

Dan rioli, dusty, and steven may also.

Though I don't think Fyfe will leave Fremantle he'd be an absolutely massive get and if ever there was a player that might come close to replacing Hodgey he would be it. Leader on the field, very high standards and demands high standards of those around him. Age bracket good. Massive price tag. But Fyfe, O'Meara and Mitchell has quite the ring to it doesn't it?

I'm really happy we've been linked (however loosely) to Lever because the kid will be a jet. Young, good size and reads the play well. Handy Gibbo replacement for the future. Wouldn't be too expensive price wise, but you wonder what Adelaide would want for him. Hopefully a Gunston deal

 

[Roughies Boys]

VandoHawk you'd want some outside mid class if Hartung & Willsmore fall through?

 

[Gralin]

Honest question.
Does anyone see a leader like Hodge out there, anywhere in the league?

There aren't that many players to go for. Kelly is probably the best one, attracting Godfather offers from North, so that's a no go. Whitfield may be available but he's contracted and there's only been one vague report of him being unhappy at GWS. Would probably also cost us a first rounder that we don't have - don't think the club would be too enthused about trading another future first rounder unless it's for an absolute elite player. Probably better off going to the draft rather than trading for outside run. More pressing needs.

Easier to draft a mid than it is a Key Forward or Defender type. We have two African Development players in our academy that we could draft, 1 is a wingman & the other a ruck. Then father sons which on is a small forward in Brereton & James Langford seems like he's another midfielder.
