Traded Jonathon Patton [traded to Hawthorn for Future 4th]

[Scotland]

So if I’m reading these threads right, Hawthorn will get Coniglio, Patton, Bonar and Whitfield next year. That’s an impressive haul.

And Brad Hill.

A real shame that we will never get to see the best of Patton, I remember his debut game which was super impressive - not for possessions or goals but for positioning, physical presence and crashing packs. Another poster commented "so that is what a number 1 pick KPF looks like".

All without giving up a first round pick, because they’ve traded those away for like 4 straight years and the rule is two years so at some point they have keep one.

Hawthorn can trade out a player(s) for a first round pick in return.

Easy.

They can? Who?

It may well be a salary dump for the Giants, but I'm sure we'll be re-negotiating his contract in some shape or form.

Besides, we may well end up losing all of Roughy, Burger, Birchall, Puopolo & Schoenmakers. So it's not like the salary-cap is going to be burdensome for us.

I think you missed my point.

You’ll see come trade time. Get ready for some big surprises.

I really can't see anyone you are willing to let go getting a 1st rounder.

Especially the amount the Hawks need for all these supposed definate incoming players.

I don't think we will be trading anyone out for a 1st rounder... players gotta be willing to go, ruins cultures trading players out.

Back on topic, Patto will be salary relief for you guys to sign Cogs & Taranto early

Bulldog will make a play as well after Boyd retirement.

they'd be abit behind the 8 ball then. Hawks been talking about this since early last year. Also ours Medico's is another reason why Patto is coming, also MCG is home.

Well he is under contract if I am GWS I trade it to who gave a better draft pick or wait a year and get combo pick. Talking is nothing compare to BF talking.

it not about a bid though, it's about salary relief. Patton has a say too.

Look. I'm not a Hawks fan, but surely Hawks needs to go to the draft and pick up kids instead of players who are on there 3rd knee reco? Isn't it time to draft in kids.... Just my idea...

Yeah probably but Patton is a low risk/high reward prospect. He wouldn't cost a lot to trade for and if he can get fit again could be a 30-40 goal a year key forward that can create a target. We are desperate for that. Can go to the draft and still look to bring in solid players that fit a need on the cheap.

But surely you could develop a young Key Forward from the draft, without the risk of player who had 3 knee recos.... If you got him for a 4th rounder as you would take his contact on I suppose.

And that key forward from the draft will take time, Patton can be a body whilst he develops. We would not give up much draft currency for him.

there's no real good key forward prospects in the draft.

I think GWS will be happy to do a swap third Rd pick and mitch Lewis with patton. They don't want to waste time on 4Th round pick kpp.

they not getting any player. they need cap space...

For who, isn't it Cog going to Hawthorn too. Seriously they already offload scully, Shiel, Devon smith. Lobb,wilson,settlefield.

We cleared an awful lot out for this year's intake. Wouldn't be so sure.
