5+1 priority picks in 12 months says what?
See, I actually know and own up to our 5 odd picks in the 20’s.l over the last 2 years.
Whereas you seem to pretend to yourself and others that hawthorn didn’t tank for 2 top 3 priority picks.
You obviously know it happened but seem to think if you pretend it didn’t happen, others will believe it too.
It’s kind of weird.

Realistically Lance Franklin was the gift.
They named Roughhead as the priority pick so Franklin was the gift

Before priority picks were given out we had pick 2 and pick 4. Who do you think we were taking with those two picks?
I wonder if North end up with picks 1 and 2 if zurhaar leaves?

Is he rated highly?
Stop trying to deflect and mix up free agency compo with hawthorn trading out senior players and tanking to accumulate high end priority picks across multiple seasons.

How did the hawks get so many picks during 2004 and 2005?
Was it all trades?

He probably is by the wider public because his best games are fantastic. Lot of variance between best and worst.

Yes. I’ve said for years I don’t rate him as highly as many others seem to.
Right now it seems they have every intention to keep him. But I think that may change if they have another poor year and a good pick becomes available.
True. Oh well, it's done now. And whilst we might not agree with the decision, we should acknowledge that lots of quality melts have come from it.

In what way was Croad not Hawthorns choice?

That was wrong. It was only mcpharlin who demanded out.

Definitely wasn't Croads choice, the hawks shipped him off.
And promised to get him back in two years.
thinking that North's previous administration were capable of putting together any sort of plan, let alone the one you believe, is laughable.

Is he including the pick I think was 43 we used to draft Tucker from Freo as a " priority pick".
Good grief there is no helping some people. The Hawks did much better via having " priority picks" than we have done via draft assistance.
But gee I hope we get a couple of beauties with those picks. We will never hear the end of it.
And I welcome their anger, the Hawks wanted Duursma but took the midget. Hence their bitterness , of course that was the gift you get for losing a top quality player like Magoo.
On point I'd suggest if Cam leaves it will be another pick after our first which will be bottom four I feel .
That though impacts on us as our 2024 draft assistance picks get pushed back a spot
Apparently has dropped a heap of weight. Will be interesting to see if he plays midfield this year.
Tore us apart at stages of the round 2 game last year playing in the middle.

His press comments about wanting to play finals make it pretty clear that he is gone to a decent club if North are crap again this year.

He will stay at North because North are the best team in the AFL (my opinion only - no hate comments)
No hate from me, I have been told to be extra nice to delusional people

Don't like these ultimatums from players. Maybe if he turned up in optimal shape at the start of every year and was a consistent performer I'd have a bit more sympathy for him wanting to play finals.
To me he's been symptomatic of why we haven't been a good side. ie Not fit enough,low footy IQ and too inconsistent in performance.
Got the makings of an excellent player but the reasons he isn't yet are to some extent of his own making
