Traded Brad Hill [traded with future 3rd to St Kilda for Acres, #10, #58, future 2nd and 4th]

[M Malice]

Contracted to end of 2021 but it is being widely reported that he will request a trade back to the Hawks. I'm sure other clubs will be making a play for him as well, considering his age, skill set and current contract length this guy would be worth a lot at the trade table.

One top 6-7 draft pick and one later first rounder get it done?

Freo didn’t want a bar of it last year but the push is there.

That plus Hill strongly denied it.

Hawthorn won’t wanna pay what we will ask. Contracted & value gone up.

I love Hill but you think he is worth a top 6 pick and another first rounder???

 

[Hawk_francais]

Come Bradley

one first rounder, certainly not higher than 10.

For us I would be very tempted, we are in desperate need of an A grade outside runner, one of the few holes on our list looking to 2020 and beyond.

Fair enough mate, i rate him very highly but if that is the asking price we would probably have to pass. Not in a position to give up that sort of currency for a player of his type.

Our Fages and Hodgey may be able to convince him that life and footy is sweet in Brisbane.

It'd be odd to leave a team on the rise for one that looks like being a perpetual cellar dweller in the foreseeable future.

 

[XhazzafootyX]

Why did he leave hawks in the first place?

 

[PoopingHindi]

i like the idea of having him back at Hawthorn.
i don't like the idea of players repeatedly swapping clubs on a whim.

Come home Brad, you will be welcomed back with open arms. Freo can take our second round pick, that's what they paid the Hawks to acquire him.

That’s not how the trade period works.

 

[moistie]

To play with his brother and be close to his family and friends. Now his brother may be leaving Freo and the pull of friends may not be as strong as it once was.

We were perfectly reasonable in our trade dealings with Freo. If he wants to leave then why stand in his way? At least Freo get something in return rather than a disgruntled player who will walk for nothing at the end of his contract.

Yeah kinda like when he left us in the first place to go to Fremantle.

I agree with the sentiment but he is an improved player and they would rightfully ask for more than what they received. Would kinda hope they would not play hardball over him considering we were very reasonable in dealing him to them for reasons outside of football.

SHill isn’t on his way out, merely GC interested. Gonna have to be a huge offer to get him to go to that rabble with us on the rise.

You were reasonable, probably too much so. But he was out of contract also. He has 2 years to run here and has lifted his game. Wouldn’t be a cheap return.

Stephen could come to us, only a short trip away from the Gold Coast, Brad could come as part of a package deal.

He still had another year on his contract at Hawthorn when we let him go.

Pretty sure he had a year left on his contract when traded.

Interesting, but won’t matter

SHill to you guys would make more sense if he was gonna move, which I doubt. You guys are in contention. After hill going through a rebuild at freo can’t imagine he wants to go to another.
He won’t be leaving though - unless as I said, it was a huge offer. Doubt Brisbane are that desperate to throw that much money at hill given his injuries lately

 

[Burtman]

With Stephen being a ufa I wouldn’t be against us trying to bring both over. We would have a team of wingers but I’m sure we could shuffle them around, and could possibly lose smith at the end of the year
