Why?

They're operating well within the rules. The AFL can get stuffed
I agree and hey if the pricks can pull it off good luck to them but it's not really ideal from a 'competition' standpoint having a team that is obviously a level or 2 above everybody else for years.

No way the Hawks can pay Carlisle the coin he'd get at other clubs. They're just making the Saints cough up.
They can offer him a likely premiership though...

And I really doubt they would give 2 shits about what the Saints are doing with their team, they would be after Carlise to help their own club and dynasty carry on.

I like this about Hawthorn. They have a great recruiting team and a superb list management model. They know exactly where their list is at, who can be jettisoned and what they need,

They value known quantities: that is actual AFL standard footballers and know what use they can put them too. They then make the best offer they can with no bull shit.

I hope they get Carlisle as Alex Pearce has one year left on his contract and you can bet your arse his name is on top of their list for next year. "Alex, how would you like 450k straight up? Freo here's pick 19...Alex wants to Victoria...thanks very much."

Thy have Hodge, Burgoyne and Mitchell coming up. O'Meara and Prestia are on their board

Why not? Is it the AFL's fault St Kilda couldn't organise a shag in a brothel?

Emma Quayle on Weller: There has been rumours around about Lachie Weller but it would take an incredible deal for Fremantle to let him leave.
Would have to be total BS. This was the question. I would never forgive Freo if they did this and delisted Moller in the same year.
Have you heard the rumour about Lachie Weller Freo's first pick last year) involved in the Treloar deal, with Jesse White sent to Freo?

Hawthorn can get stuffed!

But honestly, they aren't doing anything outside the rules. About 7 of their flag team come from other clubs, but most were astute trades stretching over quite a long time. And it's largely because they lost Buddy to FA that they can get Frawley and Carlisle.

There will always be rumours regarding Weller it seems and it could easily be bullshit. However, I hope the club knows how settled he is in WA and whether he has thoughts of requesting a trade. If he is iffy the club should consider offloading him if a good trade can be sorted.

I haven't heard the rumour on Jesse White but he is a spud I call bs. I'm with you on Moller.

That would be up there with the worst trades we've ever done :mad:

Agree, they are leading the Comp in recruiting developed players. It seems to be one per year. Time will tell if they lead the comp in falling in a heap due to no developed players. Clubs will catch on and a natural evolution will take place. Wether that is clubs saying GTFO or poaching Hawks players who knows? Lach72 is correct, midfielders will be on the list next year and really good ones too.

With you 100%.
Hate that Moller went.
And Weller going for anything less than a top 10 pick or equivalent would be rape IMHO.
There is no way on God's green earth that anyone in their right mind values White as a top anything.

This. Not like it'd be the first time that St Kilda stalled on making somebody an offer only for another suitor to come in & sweep them off their feet...

I hate them, but mostly it is jealousy. I wish we could pull these trades off.
