Mat Walker is gonna be a better version of Bennell at his best anyway.

Mate I am in no way supporting this. Just reporting a normally good quality source has heard something similar. DOES NOT MEAN IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN.
That must be a really bad calf injury sustained by Bennell that’s now lasted more then 3 years.
*sniff* *sniff*
If Bennell costs us stuff all then i'm all for picking the bloke up. Its low risk, high reward so I really don't see a problem with it.
The dude can definitely play footy when he is on the park & you never know a strong indigenous mentor like Burgoyne in particular could be fantastic for him.
That's to say he is still on it, quite possibly that speculation is incorrectBennell is like cancer. If you don’t get rid of cancer then it spreads and I don’t want that cancer anywhere near our club. There was a time a while back that GWS was getting a bit of a coke head culture and it’s the last thing you want around the playing group to tell you the truth.
It isn’t just the coke but probably more so the big drinking sessions and something like the 10-15 chances he’s had over the years. Some around here need to realise that some players just can’t be fixed... even by Hawthorn.That's to say he is still on it, quite possibly that speculation is incorrect

To be fair i bet if you could jump in a time machine and test Bennell’s pi$$ after that game he probably had some much nose candy prior too it he probably should’ve had 40 and 10If Walker ever had a game as good as Bennell's 30 and 6 I will be very (pleasantly) surprised.
We need a little bit of fantasy; individual brilliance.This little piece is starting to gain some credence in more reputable circles. I am totally dubious but I remember our genuine interest three years ago.
Lachie goes for Hawthorn thoughPeople are turning their noses up over Bennel due to supposed substance abuse but frothing bringing Whitfield to the club. Whitfield is a fantastic player but as loose as they come.
If Bennel cost a packet of chips and IF you could get him right then you’d have an absolute jet that could be a top 10 player in the league. Dangers with it but ridiculously high reward. Would do it personally.
Also, my comment above about Whitfield doesn’t mean I wouldn’t take him haha
About bloody time!Just got told something from a guy I work with whose missus is good friends with Nathan Wilson’s missus. Apparently the Dockers and Hawks are talking (and it was stressed only talking) about H. Bennell.
If you get Bennell on the park (easier said than done) then you have a Ferrari you effectively bought for nothing. Admittedly this Ferrari is filled with cocaine and a variety of other substances but a Ferrari nonetheless.
No more drugs for that man!
He’s been flat chat flying off the field.I might be missing something RE Bennell, what’s his football like in recent times?
2013 pick 1Who's going to be our target when we don't land Whitfield?
And is more than likely not out on the booze every spare second he getsLachie goes for Hawthorn though
Has played some senior footy at a high level over the last 3 years also.
Above the shoulders, below the knees and just below the noseHis problems are a above the shoulders, not sure if that's an area of expertise of our medical team.
Can’t believe people are entertaining the idea of taking on Bennell.
Been a long time since he’s played any good footy even at Peel. His calf injuries are chronic so massive risk. Would be shocked if we were interested.If Bennell costs us stuff all then i'm all for picking the bloke up. Its low risk, high reward so I really don't see a problem with it.
