Gets booed as he is a spoilt brat who showed no loyalty leaving Geelong for megabucks then cried to get back to Geelong. Stages for frees throws his arms about at umpires no wonder every other side can't stand him.
Played a vintage game today.

Hawthorn fan whining is alarming

Lost to Dogs and there were threads calling for Royal Commission into umpring

Lost to Saints and calls for afl to change rules on injured players extended bench

Lost to Geelong - Ablett booed and calls for media to investigate Dangerfield “diving”

I mean really you guys set the standard for whining

Thank you. Part of it is you getting 2 x 1st rounders for Ablett going to the Suns whilst we get pick 19 for Buddy. Now he is back having got his own way again it all stinks from our point of view. Plus his sense of entitlement rubs it in.
Hey Roger

Check on so you can be freshly aggrieved like you do so well

Gets booed because he is a champion and has been for over a decade. Tall poppy syndrome is alive and kicking at Hawthorn

Two pick 15s. It wasnt that much different to pick 19. Are you upset that buddy doesnt want to come back?

Gavin play the generalist card again. If you are going to quote me then address the issue at hand.

So even if u r correct with 2 x pick 15 you are saying it isn't much different to pick 19? **** me.
Franklin went as a free agent. Ablett went as a trade to a new club before free agency was set up. They were different systems. Hawthorn can be filthy over the unfairness just as Geelong fans can be filthy over what the eagles got for judd a couple of years earlier. The difference between the judd and ablett compo was far far bigger then the difference between the ablett and franklin compo.

Did Buddy go to an expansion side?

Deserting the club that gave him his opportunity to leave for megabucks isn't utter nonsense. Then getting a heap of stick for being a poor leader at the suns is the icing on the cake.
Nah the icing on the cake was today. Ripped whatever shit defender he was on a new one.
