Mid table and above North for 1-2 more years, mid table and below North after that.
I get there is heightened sensitivity about my opinion & you want to deflect the discussion, but if you want to discuss North, make a thread.
I think we're just trying to understand why you're so content with North's situation, and so pessimistic about Hawthorn's. Especially given we've been getting relatively early picks for 3 years now (including this year), have as many kids in the 22 and under squad as North, won a number of games against the top 8, versus North's zero, and have an age profile that allows our kids to supplement our senior players instead of needing to be short term replacements for them, which is where North's age profile sits.
