i forgot rozee, butters, JHF are hanging up the boots this season. thanks for reminding me ye time for another rebuild at alberton, window closed!You deliberately didn’t touch on the fact they have achieved zilch, nothing, nada, * all. You can convince yourself otherwise if you like
My view as well, he is underrated JackI bristled at this suggestion a few months back however, since then we’ve played mostly 1 ruck with Kosi pinch hitting and looked so much better structurally than the 2 rucks. Trouble is, it’s really Kosi or bust for this set up. Rama might step up next year but we need more depth here. Would be open to Jack for that reason.
Death, taxes, and the AFL media all bark and no bite going after trade targets

Sorry you misunderstand. The nonsense is if we kept pick 29, that we would simply let it get eaten up by the McCabe bid, rather than trade it to improve our hand in another way. It’s a more valuable pick than a bid match.It isn’t nonsense.. adding a good best 22 player for a very little cost would have made a lot of sense. The cost was going to be minimal. It is nonsense to suggest otherwise
Because the media for whatever reason link us to every player. I’m not totally sold on the media hates hawthorn view that some people here hold but there’s a lot of smoke around it. Linking us to everyone and we get none or hardly any makes the poor assessments and D+ ratings easier.How do we keep on missing on every player?
The media have linked us to McKay, Eva and Henry because we have actively pursued and met these players. It’s not the media.Because the media for whatever reason link us to every player.

Well i guess where we disagree is the chances of us pulling off either of those trades, i would much prefer either of those pick swaps but pick 1 is a pipe dream. Pick 4 is a chance but will have a lot of competition. At the end of the day as you said pick 29 needs to be used, if it had been used on Henry i don't think that would have been a great cost which was my original point.Sorry you misunderstand.

Your view on Henry is different to mine and I think wrong on several fronts but I never called that view nonsense. To be clear I think you are wrong in defining pick 29 as little cost and that we should spend it on Henry rather than enable trades for pick 1 or 4. Or simply trade for a later pick and something future if those don’t come off.
Yep - Sam has been clear about wanting to bring mature talent in to fill several list needs.The media have linked us to McKay, Eva and Henry because we have actively pursued and met these players. It’s not the media.

As I said a few weeks back, the media know we armed with heaps of cash to spend so we are a very easy target for them to link us with everyone.
Just out of curiosity who was the last BIG name player we had recruited?

We aren't even aware of the player Hawthorn is working on for this trade period. Keep the faith!
We got the best FA only last year.Just out of curiosity who was the last BIG name player we had recruited?
As were other clubs. Many clubs work on many players, It isn't hard to understand.Yes we do, McKay and Henry were 100% two players we were working on.
