If nothing else, great to fire a missile their way - gloves off as Brad said.

Hawks board already melting, delicious

Next level trolling. Love it.

 

[jannissary]

something something giving him an offer he can't refuse.

going scorched earth is really funny. i enjoy this type of thing. hoping it's consistent.

Welsh going nuclear?

 

[jannissary]

Welsh going nuclear?

if we have money to spend, we should spend it! i don't see anything wrong with paying overs for an uncontracted player.

 

[Wahooti Fandango]

Hawks fans not handling it well on their board. Lels.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

Brilliant from the club. Unsettle the bastards and put pressure on their cap. Weddle would be worth it anyway..excellent player and we have cap space to front load. Doubt it happens though

 

[BuffDog]

Sounds like a little tit for tat with the Hawks. Jokes on them though, after Merrett none of our players are worth chasing ha!

 

[Bunk Moreland]

This would be fun if it was two weeks ago and so could actually have happened

 

[yodellinhank]

He is a downgrade on Dylan Shiel. Hard pass

Maybe we could sell him a cumquat

 

[jannissary]

he's contracted until 2026, would've been more unneeded shit throwing.

 

[yodellinhank]

Rarely misses one.

He's a massive choker, misses when it counts.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

he's contracted until 2026, would've been more unneeded shit throwing.

And Merrett is contracted til 2027

Two weeks ago was the time to be doing this, we have the money and the trade capital to get it done (we might’ve been doing it, I don’t know)

Going public with this now is just trolling. Which is ok, but it’s just trolling.

 

[Lore]

Holy shit I never realised they have an entire thread just dedicated to us over there

It's Hawthorn derangement syndrome in thread form

 

[thepokey]

I never went to the Hawks board the whole Merrett saga but now I'm wishing I looked at it sooner. Their entire board this morning is just:

 

[thepokey]

Next step is we offer Newcombe a contract during a game next year. Send a runner out with it

 

[King Patty]

screwing over hawks salary cap will be rather funny

Hawks have 1.2 million freed up from not adding Merrett next year. should help with weddle contract negotiations

 

[SpeckieMcVeigh]

Absolutely love what we've done with Weddle.

#1 he's a good player so it's actually worth it in a football sense. #2 and I cannot stress this enough, **** Hawthorn. They deserve a taste of their own medicine.

 

[Dons4days]

Is it untenable yet? Or has he gone nuclear?

 

[Westlo]

Go after weddle now and next year put a massive offer in for Day when he hits rfa

 

[Unfazed]

Hawthorn board are a crack up. Saying we're hypocritical for going after Weddle. Obviously the difference between contracted and ooc is too subtle for them to recognise.

contracts exist in a realm where they're important and also non-existent.

 

[SpeckieMcVeigh]

Yeah, surely this is just stirring up Hawthorne a bit.

I like Weddle but at that price I'd still be dreaming of Bailey or someone like that.

21 years old vs 26. Bailey is better now but Weddle fits our timeline way better.

 

[BuffDog]

Geelong have delisted Clohesy who we've expressed interest in. Wonder if we go for him as a DFA?

Do we have enough list spots?

 

[Seagrave_Holmes]

George Stevens also delisted but cats intend to re rookie him
