This thread is not to discuss current Hawthorn players and whether they’re tradeable, who they're linked to or what you think they’re worth.

This thread is about our Trade targets at other clubs that are linked to us via media(not facebook pages).

Reminder, we are also not thinking up trade hypotheticals of how you would get it done in here, or asking what these players we are linked to are worth.
 
Kelly apparently looking to get back to Melbourne.

He might not want to come to us, but surely we at least have a chat......would be great for our midfield on the outside

Kelly is a perfect fit for us because of his versatility and ability with ball in hand, but with his performances this year you'd not be paying overs for him. If we could get another first, pay that and our second for him while keeping Pick 2... that'd be perfect. Money isn't the issue, only picks and his desire to come to us.

Would be as a free agent or nothing for Hawthorn given the salary. You'd have to be a contender to justify giving up more than band 1 compo to the Giants like Geelong with the Cameron trade.

I'd love Kelly and agree that he's a great fit. How much can another club convince him to knock off his 8 year x $8mil option? I reckon the Hawks and Essendon could frontload something like a 6 year x $800k-$900k deal, while North could match anything.

Oh he's a free agent, my bad - I forgot.

The only thing they can't offer, which matters the most, is not being North...

If anything Newcombes inclusion showed us we need more quality mids not less.

If our salary cap is as reported we would be negligent not to ask the question about Kelly.

Averaging a goal a game this year, would compliment our boys nicely.

especially if that mid has a bit of speed and can play on the outside with good skills
 
Lol. So they didn’t use the “all club” angle with Whitfield, coniglio, Greene, et al.
Josh Kelly: oh yeah I’ll stay and you don’t have to pay me the $8m you’ve spent on others”
There are going to have to be a some serious ambassador payments to keep the band together. The GWS cap is shared between 8 or 9 players....

Would be absolutely awesome if we could land Merrett as a FA, Fiorini as trade (2nd or 3rd rounder) + Eramus/Callaghan and Sonsie - could still have a big championships and stamp himself as a clear 3rd pick
