From an outsiders view your list has too many defenders and not enough forwards (assuming amiss wont be ready to play afl next year as most year 1 kpps arent).
yes we are well aware. remains the case even after delisting 4 defenders this year

Yeah, this is a sobering thought, the problem with drafting for "best available" basically every time is the extreme list imbalance. Ridiculous how much we invested in the defenceyes we are well aware. remains the case even after delisting 4 defenders this year
Why? a swap of future 1sts between two bottom 10 teams would be borderline worthless, regardless of what we supporters think Hawks are doing next year. Dont think the Hawks would bother suggesting a trade like thatWould surely have involved our first coming back the other way though
If you turned down hawthorn future 1st and 23 for Johnson then you are foolish, that offer is worth more than any of Erasmus, Johnson or Amiss.
If it helps, I heard the same rumour this morning (other mods can confirm as I told them) and it didn’t involve a F1 going back. Maybe that part is being left out but if not, I agree that we should have taken that deal, that’s an insane dealIf you turned down hawthorn future 1st and 23 for Johnson then you are foolish, that offer is worth more than any of Erasmus, Johnson or Amiss.
There must’ve been a future 1st going back, but didn’t you already your future 2nd?
Agree , if he was that good why did he not go in the top 5?If it helps, I heard the same rumour this morning (other mods can confirm as I told them) and it didn’t involve a F1 going back.

Sure but 23 and our future first is an insane offer and if we offered it to Freo you would assume we had offered it to every club before that as well. Someone would have jumped at that.Why? a swap of future 1sts between two bottom 10 teams would be borderline worthless, regardless of what we supporters think Hawks are doing next year.

It's funny that everyone assumes every single player wants to remain in their home state.listened to a podcast with him earlier on in the year and when asked about moving interstate he also seemed to prefer it to staying home
In the first state game, he seem to struggle for distance on one shot on goal. Next time he passed it off.Some on different boards had a knock on Amiss for his kicking distance. I am fascinated to see him kick for goal outside 40m, as I thought it couldn't be true that some were questioning him at that distance.

You make a great point.Fyfe's shoulder really is a nightmare for the fella.
You seem to have a shitload of defenders?
Chapman, Logue, Pearce, Hamling, Cox, Ryan, Young, Wilson, Aish, Clark, Walker (11)
Not sure how they all get in?
I suppose Clark can move on to a wing.
Wilson has gone from 'star recruit' to 'list clogger' fairly quickly.
Agree, I struggle to believe firstly a team would offer that and secondly a team would turn it down. You are essentially turning down a top 10 possibly top 5 pick and a butler/sonsie for Johnson.Sure but 23 and our future first is an insane offer and if we offered it to Freo you would assume we had offered it to every club before that as well.

No way is the reported offer the full trade because that is ridiculous overs.

I’ve got no doubt you rate Johnson highly although not high enough to select him with 1 of your 2 topMaybe we don't rate Butler/Sonsie. Maybe we think adding Johnson to a future midfield core of Brayshaw/Serong/Erasmus is too good an opportunity to ignore, and we'd rather get a year of Johnson now than hope we can get another player of his type and quality next year with that future first.
As for Hawthorn it would depend on where they see their list and its prospects under Mitchell.
I’ve got no doubt you rate Johnson highly although not high enough to select him with 1 of your 2 top
10 picks.
Maybe you don’t rate butler or sonsie however I’m sure you could have selected a very good player at pick 23 and another gun with an extra top 10 pick next year.
I think he’d want to turn out to be an absolute gun to turn down what you have.That doesn't necessarily tell you how highly we rated Johnson; just that we rated Amiss and Erasmus higher. Also worth noting that Amiss was possibly a needs-based pick rather than case of picking the best available.
Or we could take a Sandgroper who we rated as being significantly better than the other players available in the second round, fills a need for us (a classy midfielder to replace Cerra or Mundy,) is complementary to the other two players we took and we'd be chasing anyway if Hawthorn drafted.
On the day I'd probably have leaned towards trading in Hawthorn's future first but there's a really strong argument for taking Johnson as well.
No.Still think Brodie has the potential to be the next Patrick Cripps/JPK, and he could easily be the best of your recruits in 2021, is he in your best 22 next year?
