Why can’t we just play players to there strengths and positions they know/excel in?
imo, there’s two many times where trying to ram a square peg into a round hole.
And I feel like vossy is strangling the the team in how he wants them to play.
Release the shackles and allow line breaking players to line break ect ect
Mate we don't have any line breakers. We play to this lists strengths which is stoppage, contested ball and contested marking.

Everyone around here seems to think we have the Daicos brothers and prime Isaac Smith running around but it's Vossy telling them to play another way. Reality is we just have a lod of slow, poor by foot players on our team.

Cameron got cats a flag …huge addition

We absolutely reamed crows getting 2 1sts for Bryce

key question is what is Houston worth to us?

I’m sure he is a very good player but I don’t think we get a huge bang for buck upgrading the position he plays.

I’d be spending that sort of draft capital on a burst mid or a small forward.

A B grade KPD should get the job done.

Haynes a bit unnecessary imo.

Cameron was the best player in the comp when they got him. Put that alongside getting Danger a few years earlier, when he was the best player in the comp, 1 flag was par for the cats

Don’t we? I’m not so sure. We have a number of players with good leg speed. IMO it’s more how we use them and how we play that is the issue.

From the day Voss arrived he was all about contested ball. It’s always been his philosophy no matter what the list

Wouldnt mind Austin inquiring about Wade Derksen from GWS.. Keen to return to vic, VFL Team of the Year as a 197cm KPD, Averaging 19.5 disposals, 8.0 intercepts, 5.1 spoils. Also, in 2023 he kicked 35 goals from 18 games playing FF. Would be cheap too šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļøšŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

Also Jai Serong, 193cm KPD Averaging 20.8 disposals, 7.2 marks, 6.8 rebound 50s & will be stuck behind Frost, Sicily, Barrass, Battle, Blanck in that Hawks team in 2025.

Two cheap options that would be an upgrade on Sam Durdin, ability, age and durability wise.

Serong would be a solid acquisition. No chance he gets into their round 1 side next year, so he could be looking elsewhere

Add DGB. An inquiry has been made

Would not shock me at all if Serong goes to the Eagles as "steak knives" in the Barass deal. Not close to getting a game in Hawthorn's backline, and that's before they add Barass and Battle. Eagles need young KPD's and he gets playing time and lives closer to his brother.

I have no insider info but makes sense to me.

I get what your saying and agree with where slow and poor by foot.
But I still believe to a certain degree vossy could have released the shackles a little more, moved the the magnets and created more run than what we had.

Was a massive fan of DGB his draft year but has just done nothing. Hawthorn supporting mate of mine reckons he's rubbish. Maybe we think we can turn him around but Hawks development has a pretty good track record.
Haven’t his issues largely been injury related?
 
Who is DGB and can he run through the middle?
Denver Grainger-Barras, formerly an early pick by the Hawks.
Probably more of a third tall stylistically, there are some concerns regarding attitude & fitness.
Already down the pecking order at the Hawks & given the pursuit of Battle & Barrass, it should give a fair indication of how he's rated.
Would be surprised if we picked him up.

Yep. Obvious in how quick Voss is to drop Hewett and Kennedy or demote to sub. Knows we need more pace but don't have much to play with.

Hurts that a lot of our more dynamic players have missed the majority of the season. Martin, Cuners, Doc, Cottrell, Fogarty, Cerra. Walsh and Motlop significantly down on form and fitness.

This has to change and my belief is that this is not the way to 'play' a season. You can't be smash and bash for an entire season without copping our sort of injuries. GWS seem to have it right that you play this style in September, if you have to. My theory is that psychologically our soft-tissues are caused by this but I'm just an amateur.

Get the Trac I say and all non-core 6 are off the table. If they can get Houston, get him. Is Motlop desirable to Port?

We can off-load some of the HB's we've accumulated.

St. Kilda seem to be in the market for whoever they can get.

Keep Owies because he's the best of a bad bunch. At least Fogarty defends.
