So now in the past hour Twitter is throwing out hints about O'Meara to Sydney (Robbo) and Tippet to Suns (Adam 'Warnie' Child).

Not sure what I think about it, but it would be great for lols when the Hawks go into melt...
Would have as much credit as Titch to the Saints. Would take it with a grain of salt.

Oh yeah I don't rate him but he is quick. They've basically lost their outside game this trade period which is the one thing they'll need the most, even more so than contested ball
We need toe and I would trade Hiscox (I would even delisted him) in a heartbeat.

Hartung can't football.

Think there was potential with Hartung and I agree speed can't be your only priority. But Hawthorn are waaay slower than us. They will struggle for ball movement next year imo

They still have Smith (better outside run then we have) and to be honest unless he had dramatic improvement (not out of the realm if possibility) Hartung wouldn't be best 22 at the Hawks.

Using him to get O'Meara is smart.

Would be happy with this and soften the blow of losing Mitchell.

Probably reading way too much into it, but in hindsight Harley doing the media rounds this morning was at pains to stress that we had Pick 14 so, in his words, 'other clubs know where we stand' and in the next sentence when asked about Tippett, made sure everybody knew he 'was running 3rd in our B&F when he got injured' rather than just saying 'Kurt is contracted and a required player' blah blah...

Harley is a gun. Reckon he's been a great pick up for us.

if GC really was keen on pick 14 then i wouldnt be surprised if they started talking to us about JOM once it was clear we had that pick. posibility we trade Tippett & 14 for JOM and a second pick maybe?
We don't have that pick but an in principle arrangement with the Hawks.

No paperwork has gone through to AFL HQ so who says the Hawks wouldn't go **** you and pull out if we undermined their trade target?

We can't trade a pick we don't officially have.

starting to dream about JOM. Probably be too good to be true... however if you write your own and script and read between the lines-

Club needs run and skill, ship off the only mid we havnt got locked away= mitchell

Tabled offer to nankervis

Reid already has an extension despite a year to run and not playing for 12 months.

gc wanted 14-we (just about official) have it.

Tippett to gc for jom- clears cap space and gets rid of tom, and reid assumes tippetts spot.

We now have an eliye 2 way mid.

Again unlikely and i fully expect JOM to sign with the hawks in the coming days, but it sure is fun to dream
