I factor trades into list management, it isn't just drafting.
Theyve been great at trading for needs no doubt, weve also paid a hell of a fair price.

Maybe they will surprise me and do it again, we certainly havent missed with any trades lately.

I’ll drive both to the airport myself if we can get hold of a quality key forward. Jackson leaving hurts in the long term but while our window’s open we just need someone who can give Gawn a chop out. I’ve loved Gus’ year but we aren’t exactly skint for HBFs. If they choose to fo that shits on them.
Problem is there is no good quality forwards available this year.

In my ideal world I would have loved Ben King. But he's signed a new 5 year deal at GC and they're finally on the up.

From a realistic point of view I'm a huge wrap for Nick Larkey. He's a contested marking beast, but also has a bit of mongrel which i love about a key forward. I believe he comes out of contract next year but we'd be mad to not at least ask the question right about now with how shit Norf Lol are.

I also still think we lack another quality midfielder that can really add a whole different element to our midfield mix. They'll never touch Degoey with a 10 foot pole but his style and talent is exactly what we lack/need.

Larkey is a great call and definitely worth a huge look. I'd be up for throwing North the bulk of what we get for Jacksom tbh.

Amartey from the Swans isn't as good but is a nice hybrid KPF/ruck and might not cost much.

Ricciardi at GWS might be worth a crack too and wouldn't cost the earth.

That isn't really true, when clubs change coaches anyone could become available depending on the direction they want to go in.

Port is exactly the type of club who could realise their premiership window is closed and sell off some of their older players for picks. Thats why ive been saying we should enquire about Dixon

No one thought we'd actually trade Hogan before the season ended as a different type of example. A lot can change in the next 3 or 4 months.

Yeah this is why a part of me is hoping we are quietly into someone's ear like Nick Larkey.

The Charlie Dixon one is certainly something I'd entertain and a player i hadn't even thought of..

Bring him in on a 2 year deal alongside a developing key forward through the draft and give him a leadership role to work alongside Van Rooyen and another youngster to help them develop and shoulder the load while they can learn off him.

Have always admired Dixon from afar purely because he's a good player and a nutcase at times. His aggression and leadership up forward is something we've probably lacked since David Neitz.
 
I wonder if the Hawks are still open to trading Gunston and/or Breust. We dont need a long term KPF right now, we need to maximise our flag chances in the next 3 years cause itll be gone after that

Agree. No point projecting past 2-3 years anyway as you never know what can happen. No one expected us to win a flag after 2019/2020, you can see why the Geelong call of trying to extend the window is probably correct.

Gunston is a free agent.

Wouldn't surprise if Jacob Koschitzke is discussed as a trade. Alternatively, Sam Frost spent some time up forward and looked pretty good.

The funny thing with Gunston is we were rumoured to be keen on him last year but people on here were like 'he wouldn't even make our starting 22'. Go forward a year and he'd be our number 1 key forward. I would be keen on Gunston again.

We really need to go best available at the draft though I think. assuming we get 2 first rounders for Jackson I don't want to reach for a guy just because he's a key forward otherwise we end up picking up a guy like McCartin over a petracca.

Curious to see an example of a post from here claiming that ‘he wouldn’t even make our starting 22’
 
Jackson has told the club he won't renew his contract with the club over the weekend.

Can we make him play at Casey for the rest of the season please?
