    Welcome Cam Mooney & Matthew Scarlett

    I would imagine Matty Scarlett would have to be, at the very least, a decent mentor. Not many young defenders have stepped into the Cats senior line- up over the course of the past 10 years or so and not developed into pretty good players. You would assume Scarlett, given his standing, would...

    EDFL Division 2 - 2012

    I know he played there as a junior before going to Grammar. Wouldn't be suprised.

    Bigger impact - Lake to Hawthorn or Tippett to Swans

    Seriously? That's it? Well that argument fell about as short as Hawthorn. Yes, because I was waiting with baited breathe for Geelong to get good so I could join an Internet football forum. :rolleyes:

    Bigger impact - Lake to Hawthorn or Tippett to Swans

    That would be a good start. Maybe then you'll start delivering on some of this promise you all keep telling us about.

    Bigger impact - Lake to Hawthorn or Tippett to Swans

    Jealous of what? Another desperado Hawks fan trying to cling to this old chestnut, in an attempt to drown out their own club's epic failures. We've won 3 flags in 6 years, blooded 20 new players and lost 6 premiership players the past two seasons yet remained a finals team and Hawthorn still...

    Bigger impact - Lake to Hawthorn or Tippett to Swans

    Yeah, maybe. Maybe next year, or the year after, but after that? You guys would want to hope you win a flag in the next two years, because the failure that will follow is going to hurt for a while I'd say. :rolleyes:

    Bigger impact - Lake to Hawthorn or Tippett to Swans

    Firstly, Sydney don't tend to recycle 30 year old has been's. They recycle players struggling for opportunities and and with their best football ahead of them. Secondly, one posotive example doesn't make an argument considering you'll find 5 negative examples per one postive.

    100% based on the stone cold evidence provided by the plethora of clubs in the history of this game who have attempted to consistently top up and recycle players to fill bit roles for short term gains, failed, and been left in the duldrums for years after.

    Bigger impact - Lake to Hawthorn or Tippett to Swans

    No offence, but I would expect such a narrow minded view from a supporter of a club so desperate for a flag. Consistently just recruiting for a short term gain as Hawthorn have in an effort to back up from 2008 more often than not fails and even when it doesn't and you do get lucky it leaves you...

    Who cares? They'll be even stronger for what? 1-2 years? Then, unless they drastically alter their recruiting philosophy and/or get lucky with horrible picks, will fall off the radar very quickly.

    Bigger impact - Lake to Hawthorn or Tippett to Swans

    Define "impact". Tippett is a 200cm & 100kg key forward yet to hit his peak. He's 25 and will play for the best part of the next decade. Lake is a 31 year old has been defender, who's body and mind have failed the past two years. Lake may, and I emphasise may, be the one ingredient...

    Traded Confirmed Trade: Lake & Pick 27 to Hawks for Pick 21 & 41

    Good comeback ;) Responses like these are the most pathetic of all. It just screams one of two things, A) "Deep down I agree, but you're an opposition fan speaking out against my club so I'll insult you without saying anything worthwhile so you think I'm not on your side" or B) "I disagree, but...

    Traded Confirmed Trade: Lake & Pick 27 to Hawks for Pick 21 & 41
