Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn: Ollie Greeves
Clubs baulked based on concern he couldn’t physically transition his game to AFL where his large size will not separate him and where his fitness is lacking. He has good skills though so the challenge is his to prove those doubters wrong -
Player Watch 2025 AFL Draft Thread (Welcome to our new Central Districts overlords!)
I would support trading out for F1s if a club we are happy to death ride knocks either in advance or on draft night. Having 3-4 first rounders to play with next years trade period might be what we need to bring in the premiership pieces. -

I don’t know the depth of his personal issues which would be determinative with due diligence, but Hollands is the one on talent I’d like us to really look at. I liked him in that stinker 2020 covid draft, and remember him tearing us up in one game for the Suns. Can run and uses the ball really... -

The only offer Essendon made for Merrett was 15 minutes before the deadline and it was for every single draft pick Hawthorn was permitted to trade within the trading and drafting rules. Every single pick. Such an insecure and immature failing of an organisation. Hawthorn did nothing wrong in... -

Get Bruhn back too so their midfield depth improves While what happened with Essendon was not Hawthorn’s fault, there’s no escaping that the trade period was a massive failure. Our list and even draft hand weakened while Lions and Suns significantly strengthened. Swans too, who I expect will... -

We downgraded some picks and trades some players out though. Yeah, it’s a bad outcome, no pretending otherwise. Brisbane, Gold Coast and Swans all improved. -
Peptides! The *Essendrug Dopers: come smell the bull****! -PART 2
They are the equivalent of the three times bankrupt bloke on his third divorce, who chooses to pay every cent he owns to lawyers and end up bankrupt and homeless again, rather than just splitting the assets. Because he hates his ex and thinks he’s a man if she doesn’t get $1. An insecure and... -

He had no interest in playing for Essendon -
Unofficial Preview 2025 Hawk's Hypothetical Trade Discussion...now with added DFA spitballing!
This is what happens when you try to negotiate with an insecure, immature and incompetent opponent. They would rather kamikaze than allow another party to get what they want to. They are an absolute disaster of a club, and have learnt nothing from 25 years of failure, repeating the same... -

Effectively gave pick 9 and CJ for pick 10 and 22. That's decent. What we do with the 10 and 22 and how much we pay for others remains to be seen. -

Who cares what media says the value is, that has nothing to do with what our club decides. Pick 42 for CJ? I'd rather keep him as depth but that's not out of ballpark, if some other later pick swap improvements go with it. -

Not with #5. Crimmins family involved in requesting it. -

Gwen, and Peter's kids are involved in these decisions. Just trust them with his legacy. Love Wizard in the #5. -

If that's what Florent is worth, happily do that trade for Serong and a pick slide. He's handy -

The delusion in that is that those players have no interest in going there
