"Masten was actually brought up for trade 12 months or so ago" - Rocket Eade (7m30s)

I feel like I would remember this if it was public knowledge?
Interesting nonetheless...

with lonergan gone cats would be dumb not to offer emac a contract. Emac has been getting better each week and he's still good enough to be the number one stopper (probably needs to get into 2014 shape again tho).

Find the lecras commiting for another season odd. Surely any decision would be made after exit interviews...

 

[avishka5]

we are the biggest idiots to sign lecca up.

we are the biggest idiots to sign lecca up.

People said that and worse about Petrie.

A Hawks Mod in another thread mentioned we have offered Hartung an enticing contract.

3rd round pick or fringe player?

difference is that lecca was cooked half way through 2016 and didn't improve on it. The dish also has heart and endeavour and that takes yu a long way.

Not fussed on hartung being a thrid rounder. he's still youngish and has pace and and endurance which we lack off. He'd be an upgrade on masten.

He's averaging 22 touches a game this year and could flourish under a midfield coach like Mitchell.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

With Gaff on one wing and Hartung on the other we'd be building the toughest midfield in the comp.

If this article is correct then that pisses me off. We can't base our entire list management decision on Kennedys age

isn't perth now a free rag?

don't get so upset its not good for your health

 

[jdisc]

lol fine let lecras play another year off the rookie list

I'm not upset about the article. I'll be upset if that's what the club actually thinks.

It's not what the club thinks, it's what Steven Quartermaine thinks we should do. It's his analysis of the list without any input from the club.

 

[barnabyjones]

Please dont get hartung. Please

 

[Lolbert]

I'm OK with Lecras signing IF he remains depth. Simmo definitely has a hard on for Rioli and Venables, so you'd expect with a full preseason they'll get every chance possible to cement a spot in the pocket.

Petrie was beyond cooked in his last year with the Roos. He was older and worse than LeCras was this year.

It's going to be another stressful trade period, crossing fingers that crazy vozzo doesn't ruin the team

 

[BeornJ]

I don't know Hartung well at all.

What's the issue with him? Thought he was a midfielder with pace.

 

[darksquare]

Ryan plays as a stay at home forward at wafl level a lot of the time and that won't happen at afl level either , he will have to push up the ground and run back to goals

Did you watch the game yesterday? That's highlight #1...

You know the club doesn't think this?

Here's Hartungs totals for 2017


OUTSIDE midfielder with pace. I don't think he's necessarily a bad player at all, but he's not a world beater.

In fact if Gaff left i wouldn't be upset landing Hartung at all, for the right price.

It's not a realistic discussion anyway, some Hawk noob was just throwing a random trade suggestion out there and everyone else mentioning Hartung has just been facetious or daft.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

You know the club doesn't think this?

That the club, which hasn't traded a player against his will this century, isn't actually considering a trade of under contract vice-captain Josh Kennedy?

I think it's a pretty safe assumption.

 

[mattyc75]

He is actually a good player it's just he is behind mcgovern barrass and mackenzie for that role . It's our strongest area on the ground . He is also the best kick out of them all . Beautiful long accurate kick especially on the switch . He doesn't accumulate much of the ball though , contracted until 2019 but if a trade suited him and the club we would let him go . A very well like player

You are doing the hard sell,no way is Schofield a better kick than McGovern, no way

Difference is that lecras has been cooked for two years straight. It's highly unlikely at his age he can recapture form when es been cooked for so long.

No my general take on the article is that the club might choose not to properly rebuild simply due to Kennedy. Result = the next 3 years of us finishing 7-10th followed by a rebuild

I stopped reading after the two words Steven Quartermaine
