    Opinion Pick 6* – who do you want?

    We hold him till his 25 contract unless the draft capital Adelaide offer unlocks a replacement key forward. Pragmatic. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    strategy then would be Free Agency to replace Gawn and May as we’d still be an attractive finals team in flag window with trade in also an option. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Footy in Queensland

    Queensland does seem to be providing a disproportionate number of talls. Which kinda makes sense. AFL and Basketball are attractive options for talls. Rugger you’re sentenced to life in the scrum. League doesn’t seem to have too many positions. Soccer really limited to goalie. Sent from my...

    Traded Shane McAdam [Traded to Melbourne for F2]

    Petty is worth more to Dees on the park in 2024 and 2025 as we push for a flag than any deal Crows offer unless provides enough draft assets be used by Dees to unlock a quality replacement key forward. Which is not going to happen. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Recommitted Harrison Petty [OOC 2025]

    We’re in the premiership window. Petty’s value to us is greater playing forward in games in 2024 and 2025 for us than any trade deal offered by the Crows unless the picks Crows offer unlock a quality tall key forward in this trade period to replace him. Which is not going to happen. Yep, he may...

    It’s not in JUH’s interests to sign now when he can hope to show further improvement after another preseason and test the market which is why he hasn’t signed. If he said he wanted to extend the Bullies would have done it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    So who plays key forward in 2024 with JVR as we push for Nm 14? Unless Petty is replaced this trade period with a plug and play quality key forward our chances of winning 14 in 2024 are lower than if he is in the team. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Max as Nm 1 key forward is not a great option. Max as Nm 2 or 3 key forward playing off Petty and Tommy Mac or JVO poses some questions to opposing defences. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Club Focus Hawthorn 2021 - Lynch, Ward, Butler, MacDonald, Serong

    Sam's still looking at his midfield and not seeing a Bontempelli, Martin, Petracca, Oliver type. The beast mode types. The Hodge. Or the Lewis. And he knows picking at 7 means picking after these sort of players are selected. And that a 2022 Hawks team with veterans TMitchell, O'Meara, Wingard...

    Club Focus Hawthorn 2021 - Lynch, Ward, Butler, MacDonald, Serong

    Addressing the list building plan is significant pressure in itself. You can see the urgency. Clarko squandered draft and trade capital on O'Meara (Traded in end 2016. 28 yo in 2022: never the elite Judd like player he was Suns pre injury) and Wingard (Traded in end 2018. 29 in 2022: now 6...

    Recommitted Clayton Oliver [re-signed until 2030]

    No. Treloar has talent but he is not at Oliver's level. And his recent injury injury record goes to availability going forward. You'll need to sacrifice one of your elite talents or unlock one from a third party.

    Recommitted Clayton Oliver [re-signed until 2030]

    For Clayton Oliver? Tim Membrey and a pick in the late teens? Jack Steele or Brad Hill may be closer. If Blues want a 23 year old contracted All Australian in Oliver they'll have to unlock access to a player of similar stature. Hard to see how they would that without having to sacrifice one of...

    Frost has the height and physique to be a key defender. However his bodywork, positioning and spoiling is subpar which limits his effectiveness one on one against a key forward. It is a salary cap sport so we have to be careful as to how much of cap we allocate to one part of ground or...

    Hogan wants to go. History says we’ll get more value this year than next year when he is out of contract. Some around these parts underestimate May’s talents.
