Common knowledge...
The most concrete thing I can find to support that is a Reddit post claiming GWS offered pick 4 and 6 for him. Not saying you're lying, but definitely not commonly enough known for it to appear anywhere official from a brief web search.

EDIT: I found a Facebook 'trade rumours' page that claimed that GWS offered pick 4 for him.

Actually it was 4 and 6, sorry I'm a bit tired.

Sorry fellas.

Hilarious stuff but I can guarantee Clarko would not trade any of Poppy, Breust or Rioli for Betts.

Want proof.

The Giants offered picks 2 and 5 for Breust and we said no. Cameron knows exactly how good he is.

Anyone think Betts could claim that offer is off their rockers ...
Betts is the best small forward in 2016. If you wouldn't swap poppy for him then your the one off his rocker.

Anyway, back on topic.

Goldstein still 1st ruck imo. Missing a gane does him no harm.

Tippett closing the gap though.

I'm sorry but if GWS actually offered that clarkson would have driven Bruest to the airport himself. You're full of shit unless you can provide a decent link to that offer. If it's common knowledge as you say a reputable organization would have reported on it

Breust, Puopolo and Rioli are all better than Betts.

It's their selfless teamwork and sharing that masks this to stats readers.

Betts is a goal hog who rarely tackles and is not in their league.
If they are all better and you throw in Gunston I'd expect hawthorn to be better than the 9th placed attack you are this year.

Can't believe people fell for H2F's obvious wind-up.

Anyway, Naitanui's and JJK's claims for AA took a big hit today. Shuey not as much. Goldstein still #1 imo even with the missed game.

Ok this will never happen, but the AA is to be pick as if it's going to play a game right and most AA side will have 2 ruckman, could you make a case for having Roughead and Campbell as the rucking duo in the AA side?

Don't get me wrong I'm sure it'll come down to goldy Gawn and nicnat, but if it's a side to be picked as if it's playing, then those two as a rucking combo...... Nah could never happen.

On a side note as I was thinking about this at the game, if both Campbell and Roughead started clunking a few more marks and kicking those goals, how dangerous would they be with that midfield ?

How many beers did you have today during the game?

So the conclusion is if Campbell and Roughead were good players they would make AA?

Yeah, strangely Goldy looks stronger for AA with NN not playing too well, even though he didn't play at all.
