    If I may just revive the Fan Club briefly ...

    Well done Daniel. You just about won it by yourself in the last quarter. Well deserved.

    Happy Birthday to The Mase

    Yep, looks like an FJD alias to me. Damn newbies.

    Well, children, the time has come

    As most of you will be aware, this username has reached its use-by date. The Fan Club has been disbanded, due to lack of adulation targets. As such, this will be my last post under the famed 'Danny Chook Fan Club' moniker. Unlike soft no-hopers such as Santos, I will not switch back to this...

    Grand Final snub.....

    It'd be a pity if Schwarz fell out of his car and got run over by the one behind. The car might get damaged.

    Hawks want a ruckman for Chick or NO DEAL!

    This I read quite often. He's not on the same page as Luke Darcy, Matthew Primus, Jeff White or Steven King. He was out-polled by Troy Simmonds in the Brownlow. He's yet to manage more than 20 games in a single year (only one season has he managed more than 75% of the games). In six years he's...

    Hawks want a ruckman for Chick or NO DEAL!

    What exactly has Gardiner done/achieved in his career?

    Hawks want a ruckman for Chick or NO DEAL!

    The third was just starting out. Close to the first, at least on a par with the second (and in my view, clearly better). Their performances, good as they were, do not stack up to what we lost. Therefore, negative trade.

    Hawks want a ruckman for Chick or NO DEAL!

    Jarman was near enough to the best player in the league in 1995/6. Barnard was around the best 22. At the time, we received a draft pick and a 30 year old, broken down hack full forward. Is that adequate compensation?

    Bigfooty confession game!

    ... and of Rohan, interestingly enough.

    Hawks want a ruckman for Chick or NO DEAL!

    Allan essentially walked out. Salmon - gone. Chick - gone. versus Jarman - two flags versus Wellman and Barnard - two flags.

    Everitt a Hawk, Gardiner a Saint and Blues to be stripped of draft picks

    Why fill up the list with a no-hoper like Embley or Williams? We've got plenty of height at Box Hill. Instead of 'nothing', space is left open for a player who might actually bring something other than utter unco-ordination to the club. As for losing Gehrig, I'll see you a Robran and raise...

    Hawks want a ruckman for Chick or NO DEAL!

    Since so disgracefully and selfishly using that leverage (to enforce legally binding, court-tested contracts. The nerve of Hawthorn!), the following players have been allowed to 'go home': Matthew Robran Ben Allan Darren Jarman Luke McPharlin and now Chick. The club is making every effort...

    Everitt a Hawk, Gardiner a Saint and Blues to be stripped of draft picks

    So, in short, take a choice of talentless hacks and a pick in a poor draft for a top 5 player in the club, or get nothing. That's the options you're offering? Into the draft you go, son.

    Hawks want a ruckman for Chick or NO DEAL!

    Logical? It's logical to be dictated to by a player and by an opposition club? It's logical to accept a pick in a poor draft and a no-hoper for a 150 game Club Champion and leading goalkicker? It's logical to project yourself as a soft touch around the league?

    Everitt a Hawk, Gardiner a Saint and Blues to be stripped of draft picks

    Tell me, what's a reasonable trade for a club's leading goalkicker, best and fairest winner and 150 game player?

    Hawks want a ruckman for Chick or NO DEAL!

    Yeah, we're the villians in this situation. Dastardly Hawthorn, dragging these poor kids across the Nullabor, paying over the odds to keep them and then crying poor when they go home and leave the club with no compensation. Should be ashamed of themselves. The Hawks 'should' do the right...

    Hawks want a ruckman for Chick or NO DEAL!

    Harding was a much different situation. He was a contracted Hawthorn player, and was seeking to breach that contract. The same with Gary Buckenara. The only similarity between the 1987 problems and this one is that Hawthorn once again face losing players interstate for nothing. If we were...

    Champions League

    Matchweek 2 Group A Borussia Dortmund 2 - 1 Auxerre Koller 6, Amoroso 78. Mwaruwaru 83. Comfortable win for the home side, who attacked from the outset and scored after six minutes through Jan Koller. Auxerre only attacked sporadically and it was no surprise that Dortmund went two ahead...

    AFL draft and salary cap

    It's a good theory. But in practice, are those clubs any worse off than others in player retentions stakes? I'll back my club to go player-for-player against anyone over the last ten years in the 'quality player lost back to home state' stakes.

    Hawks want a ruckman for Chick or NO DEAL!

    Hey! Hey! HEY! Leave 'The Factor' alone. He was alright in the games he played this year. He's even decided that body contact isn't necessarily a bad thing. Champion? No. Serviceable ruckman? Perhaps.
