Certainly could do worse than get him. Disagree that he is an upgrade on Dea. I think they are different types of players. I would prefer Dea as the last man defending in our backline to Hartung, but on a fast break (for want of a less yank term) I would rather Billy Hartung streaming to goal or linking up play into our forward line than Matty D. Just my thoughts.
Is there many others?
You really think fumbling is the only thing holding Colyer back?
Not the only thing but itās a massive problem. He will often rush his possessions because he hasnāt been able to pick it up properly the first time.
Would take him way before hartung
Reuben Williams
I donāt know Hawthornās list all that well but I am genuinely surprised that Hartung isnāt in their best 25 odd players. They are about to lose Hodge & Gibson & have already made 6 other list changes. They add Impey but I believe they are going to the draft with 6 picks & their 1st isnāt until 40 odd. Surely heās worth more to Hawthorn than the last draft pick? He played 18 games & averaged 22 disposals. I donāt want him but again find it hard to believe Hawthorn can afford to simply discard him. Maybe thereās more to it?
Wouldnāt be surprised if they pick up 2 or 3 DFAās.
Ditto North
Hartung my balls
nah
nah
Yeah nah
Yet to be convinced Hartung will be on an ALF list in 2017. Kicking and contested ball are average, while defensive running is poor.
If he was recruited to Essendon, We would have hung onto him for 10 years waiting for him to come good.
Iāve never understood the hype about hartung. Do not want. I cant believe some of the comprisons. Iād take colyer and jerrett over hartung every day of the week. Iāve never seen him play a good game. Seen him.play aome very average ones though
The same could easily be said about Jerrett.
Would kick the Geelong rivalry up a notch
It sure does feel like heās running the league sometimesā¦
so similar in appearance to Demitriou
Sorry if Iām being a pill, but geez those Colyer stats just donāt stack up.
I donāt think weāll get him, but Iād be rapt if we did.
To get the three players we did and then a 23 year-old Hartung for nothingā¦
