    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn: Aidan Schubert

    My issue with the ZM chase is we were really reliant on winning a premiership with him in Year one or two or it completely sells us down the river.. We literally have no tradable assets left to balance our list.. To me he is a classic FA move. Costs you nothing and the club he’s moving from...

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn: Aidan Schubert

    This point is completely glossed over. We should never have made such an offer..It’s happened a few times where we’ve been saved from ourselves with player acquisition.. There is a world where you balance your list between bringing in good talent, improve your list to compete and continue to...

    2026 Trade/Free agent targets for HFC

    This thread is like a MAFS recap right now… Are there any players without marital problems available?? FWIW I’d take Neale for nothing before giving up three first rounders for ZM any day of the week..

    Speculation Ryley Sanders

    Not for a player at the level of Butters..You are going to have to get creative if you want to get Butters.. Looks like, picks wise, Dogs could offer a late teens pick and a mid-late 20s future pick. That’s next to useless even for points. Dogs will have to lose a player to get it done and maybe...

    Preview Round 1, 2026: Essendon v Hawthorn, 13 March 2026, 7.40pm @ MCG

    When we’re playing at our best we are also very hard to score against, which comes from being well organised behind the ball.. That, along with the lack of intensity was the most glaring thing in our GWS loss.. For me, it was Sic and Weddle that were the main culprits… We need to get back to...

    Unofficial Preview 2025 Hawk's Hypothetical Trade Discussion...now with added DFA spitballing!

    Lewis managed 37 goals in just 15 games in 2022.. At his best and if he puts a full season together he absolutely has 50 goals in him. Allen’s form in last last year or two at West Coast were abysmal. He was dropped as captain and spent some time in the ruck and down back because he was...

    Unofficial Preview 2025 Hawk's Hypothetical Trade Discussion...now with added DFA spitballing!

    I think you need to look at where Trac might be in 5 years.. Would you offer him 5 years on more than $1M per year based of his last 2-3 years.. If you don’t include his awesome first up perforce for GC his form for the most part hasn’t been warranting the contact he was asking for.. Humphrey...

    Unofficial Preview 2025 Hawk's Hypothetical Trade Discussion...now with added DFA spitballing!

    The stats or the eye test don’t definitively support your statement… Oscar Allen has played 20 + more games and has only kicked 18 more goals. If Lewis can get his body right he’s a better player than Allen in my view. He’s got the talent he just needs a good run at it and if he did, plenty of...

    Unofficial Preview 2025 Hawk's Hypothetical Trade Discussion...now with added DFA spitballing!

    You mustn’t have been following the calibre of players netting band one compensation.. Oscar Allen, Ben McKay, Sam Draper (post ACL)… Lewis in an open market is every chance to get band open compo.. At which stage AFL abolishes band one compo out of spite..

    News Hawthorn in the media 2026

    Good question. Assume given he was still guilty of a charge, we foot the bill..mind you we’d not have challenged if the original penalty was a fine..

    Alex Condon (Future Cat B Candidate?)

    He opted out last year. He wasn’t likely to get called in the first round and makes sense financially to stay at college for another year which he did. This years first round is absurdly good in the NBA so Condon may stay on at College again, though that’s not certain, maybe he tries his luck...

    Australian basketball.

    I’d start with Proctor if he can get a bit more consistent with his shooting.. Think he’s going to be a very good NBA player and isn’t afraid to shoot the ball…

    Australian basketball.

    There was a report that he was seen in the locker room without a limp after the game so hopefully it’s not serious.. Get voting to get him an All Star game.. I think he deserves it. Chicago are a ruder-less ship without him on court..

    No Oppo Supporters General AFL discussion and other club’s news - Part 10

    Seriously, you’re comparing competing in MMA and a state of origin match.. The clubs sign off on their players competing in these games.. The players are also paid to compete in these games.. The players aren’t sneaking out to compete without the clubs authorising it..

    No Oppo Supporters General AFL discussion and other club’s news - Part 10

    My opinion, state of origin if set up correctly can be the way players can test themselves against the best and play with their best peers. In AFL the greatest individual award (aside from Brownlow) is All Australian selection and that doesn’t lead to anything more as there is no one to compete...
