Gippsland Power mate. Their coach Leigh Brown welcomed him to the stage saying that all the players will love playing with him because he does the team things and has great defensive pressure.

Thankyou for that info. Hopefully we can get some clarity on whether he is definitely in our academy so the amount of erections around here aren't for nothing.

Weird the club hasn't announced signing Mosquito, but they have announced Tony Olango.

Like wise, need solid information that he will come to us

 

[Tomohawks]

Not real tech savvy so I can't add the link but Peter Francis the GM of footy for Gippy Power just compared him to Michael Long on the local news. Peter has been the GM for over 20 years so he knows his s**t too! EXCITED

 

[HawksILove]

Big question, will he come to us?
fingers crossed

Anyone know if Tim Mosquito is his brother?

That was asked earlier in the thread and not answered. Be good to get an answer

If he's that good he'll get picked up long before we get a chance, even considering our academy discount
That's even if he's in our academy

I've said this before in this thread but will point it out again.

IF Mosquito is in our academy and IF he is bid on with a high pick we can use multiple picks to match the points attached to that pick and if we don't have enough points we can go into deficit the next year.

Bottom line is if he is attached to our academy and someone bids a top 10 pick on him the club would match it every day of the week and would have a fair idea pre draft where a bid for him would come and then plan accordingly.

& boy do we need players like him with a bit of toe!
Looked like freakin treacle against those druggo's the other night.

 

[Agent Smith]

We need to gamble with the x-factor and recent history shows that we're prepared to do so (not that Garlett actually justified it). Anyway, we need to pick the kid up just for his name! Our marketing guys are already drooling at the possibilities.

More importantly, is it Irvinh or Irving?

Spelt Irvinh.
Pronounced Irving.

inb4 stupid why not have both gif.

 

[HawthornHawk]

Fairly sure I saw him at the game tonight, was with someone who was wearing a hawthorn polo, fingers crossed

 

[HawksILove]

By any chance can we pick up the 3 of them
Irvinh Mosquito
Changuoth Jiakth
Tony Olango

 

[Hawk Dork]

By any chance can we pick up the 3 of them
Irvinh Mosquito
Changuoth Jiakth
Tony Olango

and 2 father sons

 

[EIGHTYEIGHTEIGHTYNINE]

Irvinh Mosquito
Changuoth Jiakth
Tony Olango

It was pointed out in the father son thread that Irvinh is draft eligible next year (making it more feasible to pick all 3 up should the Hawks choose). Perhaps this is why his presence in our academy has not yet been confirmed

 

[Tomohawks]

He was in the Hawks rooms yesterday at the G after kicking 2 goals for Gippy Power the day before. Absolutely loved the experience in the rooms and has now gotten his guardian who is a die hard Dees man to have a soft spot for us too!

 

[Lethal44]

Pretty sure I read he's a bottom age player who won't come into draft calculation till 2018.

Didn't stop said guardian sarcastically bagging out Cyril on Facebook tho...

All with points by trading out players we don't need on the list. I expect a string of departures at the end of the season with a fist full of mid lvl draft picks not unlike the first couple of GWS drafts

Yes he is bottom age. Played Gippsland league U/18's last year for Maffra and was their standout player even though he was eligible for the earlier U/16's games.
