The Brander talk can stop, was chatted with Tuesday, informed Wednesday that we're going with someone else. I have no idea who. Hawthorn also not going with him either. Potentially has a year in the VFL.

Nice piece of insider info, just passed on what you know, didn’t make anything up to fill the gap of “who” and verified this morning with Lewis Young nominating

L.Young was Pick 49
L.Jones was traded to Carlton for Pick 46
West Coast have 52 after FA comp has pushed them back.

SPS for pick 52
52 to Dogs for L.Young

Effectively is SPS for L.Young and Frees up our pick 25 to go after a slider instead of a KPD which I think gives us a bigger potential for success.

No, just no

Sooooo. Hanrahan.
Any insights?
Can't say I watch the Hawks much.

Tidy player, but never really thought he was anything particularly special.

Think he's a bit of an Owies-type small forward. Not super quick or skillful, but a fairly disciplined player who can maybe apply a bit of pressure and bob up for a goal here or there.

Honey, Owies and Durdin are our somewhat dedicated smaller forwards. Fisher and Cunners have been used there but maybe could be release up the ground a bit more instead.

Hanrahan would seem to be a depth/rotation option, but I'd prefer to have Durdin getting games in 2022.
 
Hawks board seems to not really rate his contribution but highlight his heavy numbers in the VFL playing midfield. He seems to play HFF or FP when selected. I don’t know if we would chase him as a mid or forward. Seems he was linked to Geelong and GC in June/July and Hawks fans seem to think his high numbers in the back end of the year probably were good performances knowing he might be shopped around

Do we know if he's got some wheels and runs both ways?

We all know our weaknesses.
 
Everyone wants to be at Carlton because they don't listen to the media and know we're nearly there.

Do we rate Lewis Young? Will he be best 22?

On SM-N986B using BigFooty.com mobile app

I dont see him as best 22...handy depth. Might become best 22 when Jones retires.

He's not ahead of jones, weitering or plowman.

And he's not ahead of mckay, Charlie, jsos up forward. Probably behind a fit McGovern.

Even as first back up McDonald would be in the mix based on his limited exposed form.

Honestly surprised he chose us...I hope we aren't paying a lot for a depth player.

Lewis Young hey. How many games did he play for the Dogs this season ? I am struggling to recall him on the field.

Sounds to me like the club failed to develop its youth. Funny how they were showing signs under Bolton when playing their preferred positions and getting games, and then essentially got tossed aside under Teague, expected to improve with no official games to play in for a lot of that time.

We’ll end up losing a lot of that talent for pennies, but it’s not an indictment on their talent, rather the clubs ability to maximize it. Development has been a big issue for the club for a long time now.
How much development our young players lose through injury .
fish ankle
Dow knee 2020 ruined
Kemp knee back ankle
Phelp groins
Stocker ( took a season off)
SPS didn't complete a pre season in his first 3 inhibited by soft tissue awareness.
setterefield ACL then this year groins
Mackay back groin
Curnow knee
Cunningham you name it
jSOS shoulder and knee
Carroll
Durdin
TDK back knee
Kennedy ankle
That's a terrible looking list
