    If Hamish Davis is available at 65 would we take him ahead of Cody Anderson?

    Glad that Riley Bice is getting a chance, good luck to him. But since he's going to the Swans that'll be the last of the nice stuff from me.

    News Hawthorn Racism Review - No player name speculation - opposition posters tread very carefully

    I suspect the legals fees are going to be the highest cost. Reported by The Age: The matter ends the Federal Court action which had already cost the Hawks millions in legal fees. The players and their families were paid an undisclosed sum as part of this settlement, which exceeds the earlier...

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn : Tom Barrass!

    Blake’s dad was a midfielder, maybe he’d go alright there

    Rumour 2024 Hypothetical trade and FA Thread

    Retaining a player who has wanted out more than once is not what you want during a rebuild. The pressure is absolutely on them and I expect them to cave before we do.

    Rumour 2024 Hypothetical trade and FA Thread

    When Gunners came to us he had his 'best first year player' award stripped. Can't remember who it was, the award went to someone else.

    Player Watch Welcome to Hawthorn: Jai Serong! Pick 52, 2021 National Draft - traded to Sydney Swans 2025

    His versatility to play forward and back is an advantage and I could see him becoming a third tall in attack. We might be dismissing his chances in defence prematurely though, this year he has developed his game and been able to play on smalls as well as loose in defence. Not sure Barrass is a...

    Player Watch Welcome to Hawthorn: Jai Serong! Pick 52, 2021 National Draft - traded to Sydney Swans 2025

    For me it has been his improvement this year. Part of that has been his fitness, so I'd like to see a full pre-season. If he continues to improve he could be a force. He's not best 22 yet, so keep him if we can as (1) backup in several positions, (2) if he continues to improve he could well be...

    List Mgmt. Hawk's List Management for 2025

    I see your point, if he gets an offer well overs it would be attractive. When we lost Suckers to a similar situation I thought he really only had one choice as he hadn't set himself up post football at that time. I think Harry is different and would be more willing to stay, but within reason...

    List Mgmt. Hawk's List Management for 2025

    I see a bit more in him. His stats at VFL level surpass Breust in his first two years. If we can give him more time he could make a good high half forward or maybe wing. He is well liked at the club. His main concern is that the position he is vying for is well stocked and, just IMHO, one of the...

    Rumour 2024 Hypothetical trade and FA Thread

    Hope we don't give up much for Barrass. Our future first round pick would be the most I reckon he's worth.

    Player Watch Welcome to Hawthorn, Denver Grainger-Barras (delisted 2024)

    There always is, with every player. We've been watching him closely for a while. I doubt he'll get an extension, but if he does I'll be baracking for him like any other player.

    Rumour 2024 Hypothetical trade and FA Thread

    It's a common view. Look at it this way, if a player with a physical injury comes into our club we back the medical team to get them right. It's the same for mental health. We employ the best people who justifiably back themselves.
