    Rumour 2024 Hypothetical trade and FA Thread

    Well done guys. Whatever you paid for him he'll pay you back handsomely.

    Rumour 2024 Hypothetical trade and FA Thread

    To clarify that was my suggestion based on how highly I value Mackenzie and my post was prefaced with the fact that Hawthorn would not offer Mackenzie for trade. That's a far cry from being convinced that you'll trade a first and Mackenize for Barrass. Heck I'd take a straight swap and that...

    Rumour 2024 Hypothetical trade and FA Thread

    I cannot express how much I agree with this sentiment. Let Reid go elsewhere for nothing rather than trade with Geelong. Regarding Barrass whatever you pay for him (and I'm not here to argue that point) you'll be getting one exceptional player. My brother is currently gutted as Barrass was his...

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn : Pick 7, Cam MacKenzie, extends to 2026!

    Well he was better than both of them at the Dragons in 2022. Sure, they both excelled last year, but there are many many threads littered on this site which has early crows about one player being better than the other, and usually these early-crow threads are 3-5 years into a career (not simply...

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn : Pick 7, Cam MacKenzie, extends to 2026!

    Kid looked good today. A couple of wayward kicks but otherwise regularly involved, neat disposal and backed himself to get around would-be tacklers. I will continue to say that he's the pick of the draft.

    Ultimate Glory 2023 Trade speculation and Shinbeggars discussion

    Most Eagles fans on here would be pretty despondent if we traded down just to select Curtin. That would be one way to indicate that our list manager has no idea about the deficiencies on our list and that our rebuild is dependent on WA talent (of which there is hardly any next year). Not sure...

    Ultimate Glory 2023 Trade speculation and Shinbeggars discussion

    We were massive on him last year and the thought was he would've been taken with our first selection (above Ginbey) had he still been on the board. So a lot of work was put into analysing him in 2022 by our list management.

    Ultimate Glory 2023 Trade speculation and Shinbeggars discussion

    Pardon the intrusion and tell me to get lost if I'm not welcome to contribute here but this is the first deal proposed that would make me genuinely satisfied to miss out on Reid. Due to my work with the Pioneers this year I have some investment in where those selected end up (albeit that Reid...

    Yeah, a team that is happy to gamble on their player being a bust will likely take him. I don't think Essendon, yourselves, us or St Kilda can afford to take that risk (at least with our first selection).

    There's something going on with Hewett that is being chalked up to "rumours" that appears to be affecting his perceived range. It's almost as if nobody came to his 21st birthday party or something. But the word is that there are severe character issues, which I can't comment on, but he does...

    To clarify, my top 10 is going to be based on my particular rankings (and will not be popular compared to the actual "experts"). Also I haven't watched many of the players as close as I have Mackenzie. Due to watching Metro and the Dragons, however, I have seen a fair bit of Ashcroft, Hotton...

    Or Gold Coast could do us both a favour and take Ginbey.

    We didn't trade down the draft order only to trade up again. I don't think the West Coast recruiters feel as attached to the Mackenzie selection as I do.

    To lure us to take him before you? Truth be told, I hope somebody does take him before us. He could turn out to be a fantastic selection but his body of work as a midfielder is limited and we (like you) need a sure thing to plug and play into our midfield. Also an elite disposer is preferred.

    If you are happy to take a risk then Phillipou is your man. Kid has the highest ceiling in the draft IMO (obviously I'm not unique in that perspective). But you'd have to be satisfied that he would put in the hard yards over the next couple of years to get the highest level of development. And...

    Thanks, the advantage of the draft in 2022 (as say 10 years ago when I was involved) is that all the resources are actually available online. Now, it's not the same as being at the game live, but it is the next best thing. So you don't have to rely simply on other "experts" opinions. If you have...

    Hi Jazzfan , just thought I'd repost my thoughts from the West Coast draft thread on why I rate Mackenzie so high on here, due to Hawthorn having a very good chance of selecting him. So see below eight arbitrary categories that I have created for considering a midfielder draftee that I analysed...

    Duggan will be our best mid in a couple of years. We'd be foolish to trade him. A bird in the hand, as they say.

    If you beat us in the midfield (which you should massively) then this won't be a problem. But Gibson vs Naitanui in the goal square is far from ideal.
