Who said they were leaving us for greater opportunity?Tall 19 year old understands that it takes time to break into seniors. Glad to see he isn't as dumb as others in here.

Imagine saying he should leave the club cos he's never going to get a game due to the fact he's not before he turned 20. Jeremy McGovern is probably the second best KPD of the past 15 years and didn't debut until his 4th year. Aliir Aliir until year 3. Alex Rance had a handful in year 2. I love how you include Collins and Wilkie when they were picked up older than Hayes is currently.Imagine fans wanting to see an in form young player get a chance at the big time! And in a ‘development’ year too. Very dumb indeed.
He wouldn’t exactly be the first KPD to play AFL within 2 years of being drafted.
Andrews, Moore, Wilkie, Barrass, Taylor, Lever, Collins, Weitering, May, Pearce.

You were saying something stupid and got called on it. Just own that.

Someone did. Might not have been you but it was still stupid.Who said he should leave the club?
Oh of course, McGovern! Was there any reason for him not getting a game? Or does it suit your argument to leave that part out?
You’re wrong. Own it. Most quality KPD’s play within their first 2 years of being on a list. I named a lot of them. Fans wanting to see him play aren’t ‘dumb’.
You’ve literally had to go back to Rance to try and prove your point - who retired 5 years ago. And even then, he debuted in round 2 of his 2nd season.
Anyway, I’m thrilled he’s staying. Good luck to him
Good luck to him getting a game amiriteAnyway, I’m thrilled he’s staying. Good luck to him
These current key defenders didn't debut as teenagers, some of them weren't even on lists until they were over 21:Now make a list of the KPDs who haven't played in their first two years.
There are about a million different ways you could have made your point. Why choose the most confrontational, aggressive option?Imagine saying he should leave the club cos he's never going to get a game due to the fact he's not before he turned 20.

Do we really need to be calling each other dumb?
I call a spade a spade. Better that than passive aggression or anything else hurlygurdy listed.There are about a million different ways you could have made your point. Why choose the most confrontational, aggressive option?

Some will be shocked to be sitting here.
I believe aggressively stupid posts should be called out in the hope it becomes an educational experience and encourages better posting moving forwardThere are about a million different ways you could have made your point. Why choose the most confrontational, aggressive option?

I don't think Hayes has missed a game playing VFL in 2 years?

Comparing him with Zach Reid who is perennially injured, I'd get more AFL game time into Hayes over Reid.
agree with the notion but his body can't hold up in normal conditions, it'll be ruined by the ruckI wouldn’t be surprised if Reid ends up a ruck. Give him that buildup to become indestructible at 24-26
Would be pretty hard to score against with McKay, Hayes and Ridley with Reid dropping back as ruck.
