Players with Permission to Train at Hawthorn:

[Dragz]

On the AFL site I discovered this piece today about who the AFL has given permission to train at the various clubs.

http://www.afl.com.au/Default.aspx?tabid=208&newsId=53845

Here's the ones at the Hawks

James Allen (Box Hill Hawks);
Luke Barker (Box Hills Hawks);
Nathan Batsanis (Port Adelaide rookie);
Brett Collins (Hawthorn rookie);
Joel Coombes (Box Hill Hawks);
Ed Curnow (Geelong Falcons);
Stefan Garrubba (Casey Scorpions);
Sam Gibson (Hawthorn rookie);
Jackson Hall (Gippsland Power);
Adam Iacobucci (Northern Bullants);
Tom Langford (Port Melbourne);
Andrew McQualter (St Kilda);
Lukas Markovic (Box Hill Hawks);
Ryan Normington (Murray Bushrangers);
Hugh Sandilands (Oakleigh Chargers);
Phil Smith (Calder Cannons);
Phil Zarra (Sandringham)

Apologies if this has been posted, but I couldnt find it anywhere

Hugh Sandilands hey? He was someone alot thought would get drafted and didnt make it. I wouldnt be surprised if we picked up Batsanis

 

[chaddles]

Whats McQualter training at the Hawks for??

 

[Philhawk]

Jackson Hall and Sandilands would both be great pickups.

Intersting list -

Before the 2007 Tac Season Ryan Normington was a near certainty for the Top 20. He was one of the best in the last Irish series in Australia along with David Myers.

Callum Urch from the Kangaroos is training at Hawthorn and has been for four weeks, is going well.

 

[Rudi Gilham]

I don't see how we could end up with Callum Urch unfortunately. I believe he's too old for the Rookie draft and we don't have pick in the Pre season draft.

How many spots do you have? I hear that Nathan Batsanis is a big chance of getting a rookie spot at either Hawthorn or the Kangaroos. He's a talented small foward/inside mid. He kicked 4 goals in his SANFL debut last year, but essentially Gray, Krakouer, etc. were more promosing options at the Power in 07

4 picks.

Hope we pick up Batsanis, Hall, Sandilands and Collins.

Batsanis will be a good VFL player, maybe worth a rookie chance as he was a VG player at TAC level and may be more comfortable back in his home state.

Collins has talent to burn but is application and body don't cut it so would be very surprised if we pursued for another year.

I reckon Curnow will be our first pick if available, after that its a raffle but expect Tall backmen to be a priority.

What is the issue with Collins. Looks like he is training ok and over his injury? Same with Gibson. Why would they have him training if he wasn't under serious consideration.

I have heard Collins will be redrafted if he can get throught the next few weeks injury free. Has alot of talent.
