Crazy question

[TigerBlood87]

Could we get Cyril?

Hawks are looking like the dynasty is over and a rebuild is on the cards. Them having traded their first draft pick which now belongs to St Kilda it is possible that the Hawks finish near the bottom and don't have a first round draft pick to soften the blow so would like to get back into the draft as early as possible.

Depending on where we finish and what our first draft pick is, could we lure Cyril to his uncle's club for a reunion with Daniel?

I understand Cyril is a Hawks favourite but now that Buddy, Mitchell and Lewis are gone the AFL landscape has changed and anything seems possible.

Cyril is a game breaker and our forward line of smalls is coming along nicely and would be even better with him there.

Should we do it? Would you want us to ask the question? Is our list at a stage where he would be a good pickup? Do we keep our pick for Shcache or another KPF?

Would be a great footy story if he came over and we won a flag. Interested to hear your thoughts.

The romantic in me says yes. Cyril, Dan and Maurice Jr in one team would be pretty amazing. Extra bonus is Cyril in a mentoring role

All depends on price

 

[Groupie_]

no and yes

 

[RobsJourney]

yes and no

 

[Groupie_]

get clarko and hodgey over too

clarko can be our new assistant due to colonwood poaching caracella to replace nuffin nowhere

 

[MR]

yes but maybe

 

[KiwiTiger]

Who's Cyril?

Haere Ra

 

[Ancient Tiger]

Didn't he just recently extend his contract to the end of 2020?

So no.....

 

[Wally Matera]

Zero chance and wouldnt want.

The cost of being romantic is so-richmond like.

Have we not gone past the days of trying to be all emotive on the good-old days? Stuff like that holds us back.

Also, a side point... fishing around at 3-4 time premiership players at hawthorn right now... pass. Some of them dont look like there heart is in it.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Could you imagine Bruce calling our game.

 

[Nostradumbass]

Nah don't want him.

 

[SdKfz 181]

At this stage no, maybe later down the track in the twilight of his career, tempt him over to play with hopefully two of his cousins.

sizzle the squirrel Groupie_

 

[Phar Ace]

28 in July, so could have 3-4 years perhaps. Has had some injuries he now manages very carefully, but it would take a big change in attitude:

Friday, 16 December 2016
Cyril Rioli extends his contract with Hawthorn until the end of 2020.

"I'm very happy where I am, and couldn't see myself being anywhere else," Rioli said.

"There was no hesitation after being offered the extension until 2020. It was a no-brainer for me and I said yes immediately."

[Livonski]

One more hamstring away from a Deledio scenario.
No interest.
We've got our own Rioli. I want him to put Cyril's career in the shade not be diluted by having him in the same team.

 

[tugga]

Wow this is a crazy question.

 

[Nostradumbass]

We'll have another Rioli soon anyway, maybe the best of the lot, including Magic.

 

[tigs2010]

No thanks. Would struggle to get a game with our mosquito fleet. Bolton already can't get a game...

 

[no.11]

We'll have another Rioli soon anyway, maybe the best of the lot, including Magic.

Is he going to be in 2018 draft?

 

[Nostradumbass]

Is he going to be in 2018 draft?

I'm not sure, thereabouts I think. Someone here will know.

will win the brownlow and norm schmidt in his rookie year

no pressure

 

[Groupie_]

Is he going to be in 2018 draft?

2020 draft pretty sure

 

[Bojangles17]

The next recruit we invest in has to be > 5"8 ,. Didn't we just draft Bolton and Stengel as small forwards so with remaining funds rather than re sign Martin and poach schache you think another 5"8 FP would be a good idea ....seriously, it's a no for me

 

[Nostradumbass]

will win the brownlow and norm schmidt in his rookie year

no pressure

Brownlow, rising star and Cosgrove Jenkins. Oh my....

 

[captain cotch 9]

I was liturally thinking the same thing.
IF the hawks do finish down the bottom they will need to off load a star.
Cyril may want to come and play with Dan.
