That's where i found it.
Won't be for our priority pick so if we lose today it will be Lewis for pick 3.
Lewis is obviously a star young player but i think its time we should start breeding our own young players for the future.
Obviously just a rumour and this guy could be on the piss when he wrote it but its believable as we have allready indicated that we will play hard ball in this years exchange period.
Would u do pick 3 for Lewis?

Little chance that we'd trade him for Pick 3.

Not that i'm against it, but he's a proven gun midfielder. Not worth the risk of trading for a highly-touted yet speculative draftee when Lewis's talents and leadership abilities are needed at our club.

 

[Jeremias]

Lewis is a very good young player, but I'd rather keep the pick in the hope that someone we pick will turn out better than Lewis, which is entirely possible.

 

[MeeSo]

Young inside mid with a bit of mongrel is exactly what we need. Not sure if he's worth the 3rd pick.

I'm sure Carlton will be able to find that requirement in this draft in someone like a Masten (who I really, really like the look of) or Ebert.

Now I think about it, it'd be bloody hilarious if Carlton drafted Ebert.

Then they'd have both Adelaide (for Gibbs) and Port Adelaide pissed off at them.

Dont forget the son of one of the greatest RoyBoys playing for us aswell.

The drafting of Marc Murphy has the ire of Brisbane town drawn towards us as well.

 

[Blue Dimension]

To be hoenst i think it's in both clubs best interests that we didn't take part in this trade.

Lewis is a developed player and has become an important part to Hawthorns midfield. The last thing Hawthorn want is another young kid who they have to look to develop again. Why would they want to go backwards?

Carlton should be hoping that their third pick can bring them someone with speed and agility.

Ratten has also said that the club will be trying to recruit tall mids and isn't it Palmer who's about 192cm?

Absolutely no way on Earth would I trade a top-20 pick.

Palmer is 180cm

Probably the two most highly rated tall mids are Cale Morton (192cm) and Brad Ebert (188cm).

Personally, I really hope we just go for the best mids rather than just tall ones. Kicking skills and pace are much more important then height.

Rhys Palmer is the goal kicking midfielder we need unless Richmond has a brain fart and overlooks Cotchin.

Masten would be good though.

Veszpremi would be a good get and might be the big bodied midfielder/forward we need.

 

[benrey_demons]

Cale Morton for the Demons then?

 

[marcmurphy3]

I actually think he would be a great fit for you guys.

 

[Bluebear]

Sounds like we can close this thread then.

Hawks overrate Lewis and wouldn't give him up for pick 3...........and we don't want to give pick 3 for Lewis.

Where do we sign with our invisible ink?

 

[Cosmo Kramer]

No deal.

 

[HavUEvaSeenTheRain]

Lewis for pick 3. I would take that in a heart beat.

 

[Quazza]

would def be tempted. Lewis is exactly the type of mid we need.

 

[Will.B.Worth.Da.Waite]

definately not thanks

 

[HBF]

What a load of crapola.

 

[Funkalicous]

No thanks, but I'll trade our pick 3 for Travis Boak. I guess then Port can use our pick for that Ebert chump.

 

[TGR]

If we are looking for an inside mid then keep pick 3 and draft Masten. Chris has far more upside than Lewis. Lewis at the moment IMO is the finished article, not much more improvement there. Masten is very clean and creative inside and athletically runs rings around Lewis.

Before Hawk fans chew me out on this one, I rate Lewis quite high but feel Masten will be better.

Nice trade Funky.

 

[barnesy]

How about we just keep our Pick 1 and 3 and draft our own guys.

Then we don't need to use any energy on working out deals and can just get on with using our third pick and a player to get a trade over the line.

 

[chunk_master]

u'd be mad not to take jordan lewis for pick 3 tho...

the bloke is a star young player and u neva no what pick 3 will be like


imagine in a few years having a midfield of murphy, lewis and gibbs
