Reminds of that bit from Eddie Murphy stand up (think it was Raw) where his mum makes him a homemade Big Mac
Are you a graphic designer?
I'm not sure you are doing this right.Calm down...
I agree we have weaknesses, and hope we can improve across a number of areas, but you can't fix your entire list overnight; every team has different gaps at varying times.
- We have McEvoy who is one of the best ruckmen in the competition (but played out of position - will this happen again next year? don't know)
- Gunston is not confirmed as leaving yet, and achieved similar output to all the notable key forwards
- We still have Breust and Wingard as small forwards, Breust is one of the best in the competition (behind maybe Cameron now)
- If quarters return to full length next season Scully is also a servicable outside mid, and Day may step into the role also (I also haven't seen anything officially saying Smith is leaving)
Glass half full way to look at it.. Our gaps are massive so much that I donāt believe we can compete again next season:Calm down...

Glass half full way to look at it.. Our gaps are massive so much that I donāt believe we can compete again next season:
- McEvoy canāt ruck full time anymore, thatās the reason heās played out of position - bodyās cooked, we donāt have a ruck
- Gunston and Bruest are mid sized forwards in my view- lack the attributes of proper tall or small forwards that we are crying out for
- Scully looks cooked in my view. Iām not willing to blame his poor form this season on the shorter quarters. Wingard is more of a mid/forward
- Our key position stocks are woeful
This pretty much.

Good astute recruitment.
Welcome.
Funny paradox that we'd love to offer a very late pick to make it a trade and thus keep any Smith compensation pick... And Adelaide would be wise to refuse such, to hope AFL house were instead generous with a robust compo pick to them. Gill's quite likely to give them something more than decent given how trash they are.
It's likely to be quite a funny reverse negotiation:
HAWKS: We'll give you pick 73 for him
ADEL: No, have him for free
HAWKS: No, we don't want him for free, how about we give you pick 52 then?
what makes you say we retired him?? Could Chip had made the decision himself? Maybe the Hawks might have expected him to go around again...... donāt know either way unless I have missed something.
Welcome Kyle to the Hawks and hope like Hendo you give a couple of years of good service
Hawthorn has a very aggressive medical assessment don't they? i.e. they'll tell you exactly when your body is done in the Hawthorn system.Well, just based on Chip saying he would consider a Birchall type deal to me suggests he thinks he can still play on.
Big Boy will struggle to play ruck from now on in. He has lost whatever jumping ability he ever had (still good contested mark though and an absolute warrior).This pretty much.

Crows supporters will be saying good riddance. Perineal whipping boy
Very good character reference on Kyle. Very much loved by the Crows coaches as a leader on the track gives everything. Players loved him too does everything on the track and sets a great example. They are sad to see him move on.

Good to hear.
Great for our culture.......
Wow. Would love to hear how you equate the decisions for Hodge et al to leave, to Hartigan being recruited (if it happens).So, we get rid of Hodge, Brich and Chip, only to bring in a 29yr old because he trains well and has a good character?
Our club has slipped a long way with some horrible decisions over the past few years. This is one of those dumb decisions if we are that poor in personal that we need a "good trainer with a good character" at 29yrs of age to fix the slide while booting legends.
Maybe we need other changes at the club rather then a 29yr old "great fella". Just a thought
You didn't think this through very well did you dude.So, we get rid of Hodge, Brich and Chip, only to bring in a 29yr old because he trains well and has a good character?

You make out like we sacked a bunch of Club Champs to make space for Hartigan.
Unfortunately, I'm not surprised that you'd not make a link between good characters leaving & an apparent good character arriving.
Who said that?Seriously, if we a grabbing 29yr olds to set the example to Mitchel, JOM, Wingard etc etc etc
HahaAnd I'm not surprised at all that you are unable to see that the other posters are essentially saying that we are recruiting this bloke because he has a good training ethos.
Seriously, if we a grabbing 29yr olds to set the example to Mitchel, JOM, Wingard etc etc etc then we are in a deep deep deep hole as a club, but you can make what I wrote suit yourself, as you did. Enjoy your personal problem. I find it amusing.
Who said that?
How boring.Haha
So you think we grabbed him cos he's a good bloke, not because he's free & we don't have a Full Back?
And you think that other posters are of the same mindset?
And now I have a personal problem for calling you out on one of the week's stupidest posts?
Get off the crack!
That's just it. Nobody has said anything of the sort.
I've heard that the insane find sane, logical conversation boring.How boring.
