Sensational? That future first is likely to be outside the top 20.

Jai Serong makes sense because he had another suitor. Cam Mackenzie, though, would rather stay at a club where he already lost his spot AND possibly be up against Zach Merrett on top of that, than play for Essendon? Wow.
Really? No one has mentioned that on this site previously.

They wont say yes to this so is there a point in this offer? This is pick 9 plus pick 20 plus pick 35 plus a guy they dont even want. Ignoring the player its not many points overall
Certainly makes sense
By doing this, Freo didn’t have to pay him off for next year if they delisted him.

Hawthorn aren’t giving up any good players, so it will need to be 3x first round picks.

It will only increase if that’s being released today. It will get upped by 7pm tomorrow.
Unreal position for us to be in.
Overs, sign it and Fark him off

That depends if you rate Hayward and Florent - They are basically just glorified
Langford and Perkins
He’s 30 and he hates us, what are you all thinking? 2026 will be a circus should he stay.

If Hawks can get Carltons pick 10
Pick 9,10,F1,F2 and Jiath as steak knives
Brodie can join Port straight after trade week, rather than having to wait until the next window.
We’re not folding. We’re taking a good deal that’s put to us, and we get offered a good deal because we have consistently said we’re not folding.
This is the exact opposite of folding.
Just make it 9, 2026 1st and 2027 1st. Totally takes them out of the race for Butters and King next year.

Let’s break that down;
9 will be the 14th best player this year
F1 will be approx pick 20
F2 will be approx pick 40
So pick 14, 20 and 40 and a fringe player.

I reckon it’s better than Swans offer for Curnow.
