Has had an injury interrupted year, getting limited opportunities in his preferred midfield role
Bombers have space in salary cap to potentially pay off part of his final contracted year
What would he be worth trading for to teams lacking midfield depth?
Background to this story is true: Liam Shiels was playing one of his first games at Hawthorn as a young and up and coming player. They were playing Adelaide at Adelaide. Shiels placed his belongings in a locker and went to warm up. Returning from the warm up he was confronted with a scene...
Will he cop anything?
Also, WTF is North doing? Letting a bloke back on the field and then taking him off for a concussion test. This mixed with the Cunnington fiasco last week, does not look good.

...do you think is a better player?
I asked my brother who is a Doggies supporter "what do you think of Dion Prestia's season?" and he said he reminds me of Dylan Shiel sort of on that level and it got me thinking these guys are awfully similar in numbers even height and build that short stocky...
Simple question
At Round 7 based on what we've seen onfield it's pretty easy to put them in order: Shiel, Lynch, Wingard and sorry is the other guy even at his new club these days?
But what order will these guys be in at the end of the season?
Who will end up being the best recruit for their...
Of course the big story in the off season was Dylan Shiel leaving. This will be highlighted when we see him line up against us in a few weeks for the bombers. So how much do we actually lose and how can we cover that loss?
Lets dig a little into the stats
- Shiel averaged 25.9 disposals last...

As has been explained by Hawthorn supporters, Hawthorn was Dylan Shiel's chosen club and he was left devastated when Hawthorn rejected him and he was forced to go to Essendon instead.
Does Hawthorn regret not bolstering their midfield stocks with Shiel I wonder?
Thought I'd throw this one out here. Heard recently they're basically the same player except Shiel cost Essendon the farm while North got Tyson cheap.
Who would Bigfooty take for the 2019 season?
Welcome to Essendon, Dylan.
Very, very happy about this!

Jesus I thought Norf were desperate.... Shiel's an A grade mid, but they're throwing Dusty money at him and matchwinner he ain't. Better value than offering Hannefairy a 1 year deal on base salary perhaps, but...
An AFL insider has just told me that SOS and Shiel have a gentleman's agreement, SOS has told Shiel he will do "whatever it takes" to win his services, if that means pick 1 so be it, ( which will go to the crows ) but SOS wants 'something else in return'. Shiel is just pretending to shop around...
...stars' of Hawthorn's golden era. One forgotten man who has quietly gone about his business putting together an incredibly solid career is Liam Shiels. May surprise some, but is due to play his 200th game next season barring injury. Has averaged 20 disposals and 6 tackles a game over his 182...
Hi All,
I got the below message the other day, but when I go on to claim the tickets I am told that it is unavailable, has anyone been able to claim theirs with this promo? I can't find any expiry date on the offer and I have tried contacting the club via Facebook, Twitter and on the phone to...
