I dunno if he had 'it' as a coach for you guys, but was he disliked by the fanbase? It seemed like he had the players onside, and just really needed the cattle to execute his success more than anything. Odd timing and really feel for you all heading into the draft with this happening. Maybe Yze...

Thanks so much for the insight. Really appreciate it. I'm sure come the week of the draft my excitement will pick up, but you're right that everything just feels a bit vanilla at the moment.

Am I wrong in being a bit uninspired at what's available at the Dees first pick this year? Is there anything quality wise that we would really want? I'm feeling okay with us when flipping this year's first for next year if possible, nothing screams out at me at the moment. Maybe I'm just...

Great deal if he stays injury free. Seems like we'll pay 700 and Pies 300, which is about right considering pick. Dunno how Max and Grundy will work, but keen to see how it plays out if we get that 5 player bench next season.

Make it two.

Unless north are offered overs, can't see him going anywhere. Would love for us to have a look but honestly think North will just say thanks but no thanks unless a giant offer comes in.

Well, that's the end of that

Agreed. Seems like a really strange one unless max is more banged up than the club lets on

Would happily throw a third at him or grab him as a DFA end of next year.

Don't mind it for the Eagles. He's fast and breaks lines. Was the reason we finished top two and when given the chance in the right position can absolutely be a serviceable player. Won't be a star but should be an upgrade, and is incredibly fit and some of that Burgess knowledge and fitness...

Sounds about what I've heard in the Luke Jackson thread. I wish you guys the best when you trade in Sam Taylor, Charlie Curnow and Petracca for Dunkley.

Paywalled article Alastair Clarkson, Chris Fagan and Mark Evans were accused by a fellow Hawthorn coach of running the football department like the “Russian Mafia’’, the club’s review of its handling of Indigenous players reveals. Two pregnant partners of players lost their unborn children...

We wanted him and ended up drafting rivers. If he needs to go to fit Dunkley I'd hope we asking the question.

Depending on what hawks pay salary wise could range from 30-50. Who needs an inside mid desperately? Could North take him on and move him into a coaching role post career, pay a higher pick and very little $$? Just hard to see how he has improved his value at all since last year at all.

Dunno how we'd be able to get him across - unless the pies see him as surplus to their needs. All depends on what we get for Jackson I suppose? We can't afford to pay his full contract, will probably get some average first rounder picks for Jackson. Not sure what we'd have that Pies would...
