Now that Brockman has nominated WC as his preferred trade destination. Is he any good? Tiny sample fo games to go on but we are now the destination club.

Had a beer with a Hawks mate tonight, reckons he's very good.

Bet it’s bullshit re McKay as in Hawthorn will have already known he’s had issues

Less than 80 games in 8 years is hardly the definition of durable

Just highlights just how big a load of bollocks it is that pick 3 is even being discussed as an option

Could work out very nicely for the Hawks. Get McKay for a less ridiculous price and keep pick 3.

North fans must feel like someone’s just torn up their winning scratchie

 

[Byron_Clanger]

Just when I thought two months of will they/won't they with Harley Reid wasn't enough. In comes the is he/isn't he damaged enough goods for the third pick talk.

 

[Dark Sharks]

EAD Norf.


Couldn't happen to a nicer club at the moment.

 

[Priddis Is Done]

No need to post and they are already pissed about it lmao good reading.

Bye bye pick 3
Bon voyage

Brockman has talent, has family related (not negative) issues meaning he really needs to come home. He has shown he ability inconsistently and has also shown so far that he doesn't go 100% all the time. His defensive running and pressure is suspect. His game against WCE this year was his career best game and it was against witches hats.

He is going to need to put a lot more dedication to get the best out of himself to make it as an AFL footballer. After round 12 he played 6 games (none as sub) for a total of 3 goals. His disposal can also be very hit and miss, he makes a lot of clangers.

Pick 52 is fair or if anything generous considering where he was drafted and what he has shown. I'm not discounting his talent, just his ability to put it all together on field and become a best 22 player. I certainly wouldn't be paying a second round pick for him if I was involved in the negotiation.

52,57 and a future third for brockman and 29 is what I would be going after. After a 20% discount on FS if McCabe is bid on at pick 18 those two picks and the Hawks third from the dogs covers the points required and the hawks bank a future third likely around pick 40 or so. Hawks pick 29 is going to be chewed up with McCabe anyway.

They get 3, McCabe, a late pick which will likely end up around 55-60 anyway as teams will be passing by that stage and get to bank West Coast's future third for a pick upgrade this year and Brockman.

Call if fair and even for WCE keeping things discrete in regards to Mitchell and releasing him from his contractual obligations with little to no fuss. In reality it means we are likely trading for Brockman with the hawks trading 23&Brockman for McCabe & 40 next year.

Would it be fair to say Brockman is a bit like Flyin' in that he has a bit of a lazy streak?
When watching Ryan live you can immediately tell when he's having a "i'll just do what i need to" day and the days where he's actually giving 100%.

Different cats in playing style obviously..

He was on par with Winder in his draft year , I don't expect much from him . Pick 57 is about right .

 

[Altum Volantes]

To be honest, for $850k a year and Pick 3 in compensation for losing him, I would expect the guy to have 2 knees, minimum.

 

[Farang83150]

from today, now Nth supporters still think Ryan's looking to head east, a tad slow on the goss over there...

What does the tweet say? Sounds like fun from the replys.

Every year they are convinced that a star of the comp will want to come and play for them. It's hilarious yet also kind of embarrassing.

Latest update from the North List Management office.

 

[WCE_Phill]

Lol classic Norf

McKay odds to stay on

So after months of the tin rattlers thinking their getting 3 and Sanders, high chance they get nothing other than maybe an end of first rounder

Know for Stephens to walk into the PSD and the Eaglesc take him

A development in the Ben McKay sweepstakes - @cleary_mitch reports that, following a medical, there's a query around the Kangaroo defender's knee.

Time for Gaff to move!

 

[Happy Mastenator]

You trying to tell me that the bloke who's managed 71 games in 8 years might not be 100% physcially? Get the **** out of here.

 

[Sammy J]

The draft is so ridiculously compromised with compensation picks, academies, father son, NGA and the like, it’s a wonder why we even bother with it.

I like how the rhetoric is “North aren’t getting given Sanders”, and then in the same breath there’s talk of pick 3 as McKay compo (losing a young KPD because they get rewarded to do so), a mid first pick 11, which they could essentially package up with other picks to have picks 2/3/4 and get Sanders anyway. It’s a joke.

Jack Bytel (ex saints)
Tariek Newchurch (ex crows)
Riley Bonner

Young, talented and would add quite a bit of value to the team

Looks like we’d have some competition for Teakle if we went after him.

Do not want unless we are cutting Jamieson now (Which i wouldn't be against)

Would rather give Kobe Ryan at West Adelaide a chance.
