I clicked on that link but it doesn't say anything in regards Hawks linked to Hartley.UPDATE: Hawks set to swoop on delisted Dons defender
Hawthorn looks set to swoop on Essendon defender Michael Hartley after he departed the Bombers this weekwww.afl.com.au
AFL.com.au are linking us to Hartley with a 2-year deal reportedly on the table
Were is this update, the link says nothing about Hawthorn on my end. Seems to just be the original article.
Hartley would be a good pickup, 198cm, can lock down an opponent, does a lot of 1%ers, is a decent kick and is a fun bloke that'll be good to have around the club. Really should have played more games for us this year.
Doesn’t make sense for Hartley to choose the Hawks if he is looking for opportunity .... Frawley, Frost and if Big Boy is going to spend some time down back.
Well thank god McEvoy isn't playing fullback then. But you're right, seems weird to move from VFL Bombers to Box Hill, pretty sure we've just offered him a better contract. Or maybe we're saying there is a position available and Frost is no lock, want it come and get it.
Hartley a bit underwhelming but adds depth so all good.. Frost and Hartley decent enough stop gaps but we really do need an elite tall defender, hoping Kosi can be that.
On a side note. Don't read into the ruck thing.
Our VFL team had exactly one ruckman by the end of the season/finals. Hartley and Jok were thrown in their due to height and athletic ability.
He was pretty bad in there.
Good to know, I was reading the dons website where he had to play VFL finals in all of defence, forward and ruck positions in those games.
So how do we pick Hartley up ? In the draft or do we just sign him before then ???
