He's 20, same age as Worpel... A B&F winner.

b/f winner at a rubbish club according to the afl ladder

you are correct they are from the same draft. a good observation

Middle of the road teams have a pretty good record of beating Richmond in finals then

Richmond has won two flags and lost one final in the last 3 years

Rubbish or middle of the road? Get your story straight.

Still the only team in AFL history to be knocked out of the finals by the 9th placed team.

fair play to carlton but they had nothing to lose after playing finals coming 9th - the drug cheats stuffed Richmond around that year

rubbish/run of the mill whatever term you want. hawks only won a few more games that carlton. their b/f should be taken with a grain of salt imo

2 best player in the 2017 draft now behind Kelly.

This is where the Hawks ranked this year
1st in contested marks
1st in intercept marks
3rd in points conceded
7th in percentage

Yeah “rubbish”

Troll harder. :$
 
Just switching to the hard rebuild tack.
We see saints now trading away some of the great hopes from the last rebuild, while mcevoy is a mainstay of our team

No knock on the saints. They’ve been unlucky. Just saying that strategy carries no guarantees either

st kilda is hardly the greatest benchmark to use
 
Of you would. You would probably pick Prestia over Mitchell such is you’re stupidity.

premiership season best and fairest winner over a hawthorn accumulator?

prestia for me yeah

prestia 'was ranked' (whatever that means) #1 player in the league since mid season iirc, btw...

but then again im stupid s0 what would i know :)
 
Not true,

Taranto 2019 Best and Fairest.
Worpel 2019 Best and Fairest.

Taranto 9 Brownlow Votes
Worpel 10 Brownlow Votes

Player: Taranto - Worpel

Height: 187 - 185
Weight: 87 - 85
Age: 21 - 20

Disposals: 27 - 26
Contested: 11 - 12
Clearances: 5 - 6
Tackles: 6 - 5

They even celebrate a goal the same way.

This is terribly overrating Worpel.
If given the choice between the 2 no one is taking Worpel over Taranto right now. He might get there eventually but that's speculation and Taranto still has improvement too.

No one is picking Worpel over Taranto, Hawks would make that trade tomorrow.

Almost as if hawks fans overrated worps due to a lack of young talent on the list? Ignoring the elite end of the draft all these years.
 
worpel plays well in the snow

Doubled Taranto's clearances in our first game against GWS too without any snow. Although he was just warming up then and Taranto got two more possessions, and they managed to kick 38 that day. Based on the current trend, we'll probably keep them goalless for the entire game next time we play them.
