    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn: Josh Ward. Extends to 2025!

    This is what I tried to explain a couple of days ago (albeit very poorly) Just doesn’t come across as a natural ball hunter. There is no doubting his high skill level and terrific attitude. I just don’t see him as an in and under midfielder

    Rumour 2024 Hypothetical trade and FA Thread

    That is bat$hit crazy. You have been reading too many David King articles. North got pick 3 for McKay and now their backline is absolutely shite yet you want to trade out our best key forward for a pick in the 20’s ????

    Lol are you serious ? Ive gotten plenty wrong over the years. I was very bullish on Butler early days but looks like I got that one wrong as well. Unlike some others on this forum, I have no issues admitting when I got things wrong.

    Correct - just my gut feel. I just don’t see it. I’ll be the first to put up my hand if I get it wrong and I sincerely hope I am, great kid with a great attitude. Time will tell

    We will see. Just calling it as I see it. He’s not an in and under midfielder. Just like Reeves offers nothing around the ground as a ruckman. Meek has already proven to be a far more effective ruckman in just a few games

    He’s not up to it. If he was, they would have put him in the middle at half time after Nash and Newcombe were getting a bath. They went with HH who actually did a stellar job - big tick Ward will never be an in a A grade in and under midfielder. To be honest I’m not sure what he is. For mine...

    Rumour 2024 Hypothetical trade and FA Thread

    Wouldn’t surprise me at all to see TT and B Smith end up at Geelong. Worse still TT will cost nothing whilst Smith will likely cost them a paltry pick in the low to mid teens - it’s what Geelong do. They planets just always seem to align for them when it comes to bringing in gun players or...

    Autopsy Round 5, 2024 - Suns destroy hopeless Hawks

    Agree - Dont care how GC or the media try and spin it, as soon as Hardwick got the GC gig his first port of call was get Chol out of the side. Our staff were genuinely shocked by how unfit he came to us. Forget about the PCL injury, you can still work hard in the gym which he clearly didn’t do...

    Autopsy Round 5, 2024 - Suns destroy hopeless Hawks

    Important absolutely - Big issue though is that all of Lewis, CJ and Wingard are consistently injured. I would hate to see how many games of footy all three have missed on the last 3 years. Day is a star but has also copped a significant amount of injuries that have stifled his development

    Rumour 2024 Hypothetical trade and FA Thread

    Hard to disagree with this. I was initially bullish on Ward, McDonald and Butler but all three are struggling. Butler can’t play football. Finger twirler has been found out Ward was a pissweek so called “safe option” top ten pick. Not my words the clubs. Nowhere near it. DGB another top ten...

    That is not the issue with Reeves. His biggest issue is that he is basically ineffectual around the ground. Meek has much better agility and his follow up work is really impressive. The other key issue is that the ruck rule change this year has nullified his greatest asset ? Winning tap outs)

    Game Day Round 5, 2024: Suns v Hawks, 7:30pm, People First Stadium

    They will win this. Just want to see consistent four quarters and further development of our younger brigades. C mac needs to step up and hopefully meek continues his good form in the middle

    Harry isn’t quite ready just yet. Let him find his feet and confidence at Box Hill. Finn showed a bit I thought yesterday- keep him in and let him give a hard tag to Anderson

    Autopsy Round 4, 2024 : Hawks get Pied

    Was really pleased to see Ward show seem elite disposal tonight - especially when going forward I thought Chol battled out the game but was totally outclassed by Frampton. Still a massive upgrade on Kozi. Good to see NewCombe back and Dylan Moore seemingly over his glandular fever Hardwick...

    Game Day Round 4, 2024 : Collingwood v Hawthorn, 5:10pm Sunday 7th, Adelaide Oval

    He’s an AFL lap dog on par with the two clowns Maher and Gaze in the afternoon. Stopped listening to all three quite a while back
