Trade talk - from August 2024

Nope
Higher draft pick and Fark Carlton missing finals would’ve been just fine by me

Barass I agree…Battle not so much.

Says who? Watch the EFC back down on Stringer.

Barass is a great mark, but not a great defender. He concedes a lot of goals.

excellent

Yep he was ranked top 5 as one of the worst defenders this year.

We do not need to fake it, it comes naturally.

Fark me of course our pick gets pushed back again. We can’t do anything right, even lose.

Pick 9/10 for the fourth worst side in the comp. Fantastic.

And played A LOT of midfield time when compared to Stengle.
42 goals and a sh*t tonne of assists, is AA conversation on face value. He’s the least of our issues.
If we had a balanced forward line with players who actually crumb and apply pressure next to Jake, he’d be the jewel in our crown…
Instead we are running with forward lines of Wright, Stringer, Jones, Langford, Caddy and wonder why the ball comes flying out of 50 and we can’t defend transition.

Should call them on it and tell them both to go explore that interest

And Freo replaces Scum in the 8.

At times this claim looked generous.

Wait til the draft coverage identifies the top X group of gun players like they do every year…with a drop off after that.

X being a number < 8

Wait - are Hawks a chance to get Perryman as well??

Signing players before trade period? thats a tampering. take their picks afl

It’s all well and good to say it’s unbalanced, but how are you going to balance it then?
Caddy is untouchable.
I know I’d rather hang onto Langers.
Jones fits the age demographic better, so likely keep him.
Wright can back up ruck, thats kind of handy, but we really need to loose two out these guys, so he can go.

Then there’s Jake. Cant see him playing VFL until Langers or Caddy get injured. So, cya buddy

If we don’t play Bryan next year fair chance he’ll leave; would it need to be Draper / Bryan swapping in the ruck with Draper resting forward?

I wonder how many flags Hawks will win this decade, they’re good for at least one
